RE: Prague/Czech Republic - Saturday photo challenge - share your personal pictures from your visit to the Czech Republic!

For carnivores only!

Here is the famous Prague ham turning on a spit at a street vendor’s stall on the edge of Old Town Square, It is sold by weight, and even though I asked for a small chunk, my portion was large enough to feed a family of eight. Well, maybe I’m exaggerating a little, but I ended up having enough for two meals, one hot, one cold, and I can testify that it is indeed very delicious either way, and I could have eaten it every single day.
Can you say “yum”?

I want some:).... Just have to say it is really over-priced , ridiculously expensive!

Indeed! You almost have to sell your first-born to afford it, and a side order of smiles with it would have made the transaction a little less painful. Ooverpaying for certain things is part and parcel of being a tourist. You know that certain things are way overpriced, and you factor it in. I have to confess that I walked past the stalls and left empty-handed a few times precisely because I found it hard to spend that much of my hear-earned money, but in the end I knew that I would have regretted if I had left Prague without tasting its ham (and it was goooooood). You are 100% right though, caveat emptor!
