traditional czech meal

after arriving at our hotel on friday night, we drank our complimentary bottle of czech sekt and then headed out to a local restaurant/bar (after asking for a recommendation from the receptionist). we drank lovely dark beer and had a great traditional meal in a traditional setting.
i had roasted duck with potato pancakes and cabbage and sauerkraut (it was HUGE!) and kev had... well a plate of meat! he had all kinds of things on there.... pork, sausage, duck. it was interesting to discover that potato pancakes are very similar to irish potato bread (with a few additions like little bits of bacon). i love potato bread. probably something to do with it being potato and fried.
