hottest restaurants in town is this Spanish-style tapas place not far from the Jiřího z
Poděbrad metro station. Descend into a lively space to see a red-faced chef minding
the busy grill. Our faves include marinated trout with horseradish and pork belly con-
fit with celeriac. Service is prompt and friendly. Book ahead.

RISTORANTE SAPORI €€
This elegant Italian restaurant is the best in the immediate vicinity for a proper table-
cloth dinner with all the trimmings. We like the calamari with arugula garlic and
cherry tomatoes. Offers daily lunch specials with mains priced under 150Kč. Hand-
some light decor with hardwood floors; excellent wine list.

Náměstí Míru)
This small, informal Mexican restaurant run by a group of friends
from Mexico offers the closest thing to authentic Tex-Mex you're likely to find in
Prague. Delicious tacos, burritos and enchiladas are crafted with love from handmade
tortillas. The ambience is a little sterile, but no one is here for a candle-lit dinner - just
very good and good-value nosh.
INDIAN
THE PIND €€
16, Jiřího z Poděbrad)
One of the best Indian restaurants in town, with a refined atmo-
sphere, making it a decent choice for dinner. The menu features the usual assortment
of Indian dishes, including a delicious fish masala. Advance booking recommended.

Vršovice doesn't have many really good restaurants, but one of
our favourites is this relatively new spot that mixes Turkish and Middle Eastern influ-
ences to winning effect. The menu changes daily depending on what's fresh and in
season, so you'll have to take your chances. On our visit the beef roasted in a coffee-
flavoured sauce served on wide noodles was a big hit.
