Thanks for stopping by Yum! Prague! I’m Petra, born and raised in this beautiful city I’m lucky to call my home. As a true local, I’ve spent my life exploring every hidden gem and well-known spot across Prague, and there’s one thing that never fails to excite me, the food. I believe food is at the heart of every culture, and for me, it’s the most thrilling part of travel and discovery.

When I’m not indulging in Prague’s rich culinary scene, you’ll find me traveling to new corners of the world, always with my taste buds leading the way. Whether it’s savoring street food in Vietnam or enjoying a Michelin-star meal in Paris, I see food as a gateway to understanding new places and people. That’s why I’m so passionate about sharing my foodie finds and experiences with you here on the blog.

Through Yum! Prague, I aim to bring you the best of both worlds—insider knowledge from someone who knows the city inside and out, and a foodie’s eye for the most delicious spots you simply can’t miss. From cozy cafes hidden down winding alleyways to elegant dining with views of Prague’s iconic skyline, I’m here to guide you to the most memorable experiences this city has to offer.

The Idea Behind Yum! Prague

The idea for Yum! Prague came from my own experiences as a traveler. Every time I visit a new city, the first thing I want to know is where to find the best food, what local dishes to try, and what sights and experiences I absolutely can’t miss. I realized that tourists coming to Prague might feel the same way, and I wanted to create a space where I could share the insider tips that help you make the most of your trip—whether it’s discovering an amazing restaurant, finding the perfect place to stay, or figuring out how to get around like a local.

Where I Live in Prague

If you’re wondering where I live, I call Žižkov home. It’s a lively neighborhood nestled between Karlín and Vinohrady, two of Prague’s best foodie districts, and I’m just 15 minutes from the city center. This spot keeps me close to some of the best dining and nightlife while being perfectly placed for exploring all sides of the city.

So whether you’re planning your first trip to Prague or you’re a seasoned visitor looking for new culinary adventures, I’m here to help you discover the magic of the city, one bite at a time.
