The sausage you got for 50Kc is, i think, the hungarian čabajka, and it is indeed the best stuff they have on offer. I presonally love them. I remember when I moved to this city, and was almost broke, a klobasa in vaclavak was my daily lunch for a couple of weeks (they were 25Kc back then), and i survived. It is a bit of hit and miss, but after awhile you learn to recognise the good ones and point them to the seller. <BR/>Oh! and the Smažený sýr sandwich. It is indeed the best thing you can eat AFTER a bender. When I was single I used to go out and get seriously drunk far more often than now. I would get one of those buggers and they will suck up all the alcohol i had in my stomach, sober me up enough to remember my name and give me energy to get my ass back home, (or so it felt back then), anyway, if it is way past nidnight, and you have the munchies, nothing beats a stand in vaclavak.Pivní Filosofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883511608403454943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9117457965555197769.post-40495224686030089032007-05-25T12:14:00.000+02:002007-05-25T12:14:00.000+02:00The Vaclavska was my least favorite.

It's never happened to me.<BR/><BR/>The other types can be fattier, but, again, I didn't have your issues at the stands I went to. <BR/><BR/>I have, however, eaten very bad klobasa at a number of other places in Prague and beyond.Brewstahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07696497881565368117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9117457965555197769.post-39005093876071116872007-05-24T16:01:00.000+02:002007-05-24T16:01:00.000+02:00Hinice article...one thing about Vaclavska klobasa...Hi<BR/>nice article...<BR/>one thing about Vaclavska klobasa - I tried it twice and it had inedible chunks in it and also it is very long and looks funny in a roll. so when you eat it on such crowded place as Wenceslav square, people first laugh at you and your stupid long sausage in a short roll and that turn away in disgust when you start spitting out those chunks :-(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
