Wine Food Market

 last week we got acquintated with Italian food market and restaurant near Smichovské nadrazi. The grocery department stacks italian delicacies like olive oils, pasta, wine, cheese... Whatever your heart desires.

After filling your shopping basket you can start filling your stomach from bakery, restaurant, ice cream and cake counter. We bought antipasti such as cheeses, rustic bread and delightfully strawberryish rosé from the grocery store. The staff kindly cut the cheese for us, changed our wine bottle to a colder bottle and even rinsed tomatos ready in a bowl! Very nice. And the tomatos were to die for, so sweet and juicy. Oh, and we also had sizzling pizza slices from bakery. Yummy. I honestly thought that would be enough and I would not need a main.
How wrong I was...

For main dish I had salad with some Piemontese cheese, grilled aubergine and zucchini. And final touch was a scoop of capuccino icecream.

The food was delicious, simple but good as it should be. The service was fine too. One of the younger waiters seemed to be a bit lost with his plates asking around who oredered what but that was just cute. The place seemed to be laidback and informal, big tables and one open space to dine. On a Wednesday evening it was buzzing with people. Too bad that it closes already at 22.00, also on weekends.

All in all a really good experience. Though a meat and fish eater place mostly, there are vegetarian salads, pizzas and pastas available.

Definitely want to go again, maybe for lunch or for serious grocery shopping. Or bringing guests, or just taking a tram trip for gelato.
