U modré kachničky (Restaurant)

U modré kachničky




U modré kachničky is my favourite restaurant during our trip in Prague.  It's rich, delicate, elegant yet delicious.  Game is its specialty. The great impression will stay for long.   

Smoked duck breast with union marmalade & wild game pate with bacon and cranberry sauce

We came here for lunch.  As the second table of guests we were handed a la carte menu.  First came in sight is their Degustation menu.  950Kr for 7 dishes!  2 appetizers served in one, 3 main courses and 2 desserts.  We only ordered an extra main dish and half bottle of red wine.  Very satisfied and pleased with the choice!

Confit duck roulade with walnut stuffing



We were offered a table next to a closed window placed with photos of celebrities or famous people: tennis player Roger Federer, Sean Connery, Helmut Kohl, etc.  It's kind of endorsement and it did not disappoint.  Soon came other guests.  We noticed that they were offered lunch menu with duck confit and wondered why we were treated differently.  Never mind!  Pay a bit more but a much higher level of pleasure with the so many choices.

Fallow-deer saddle with rosehip sauce

I like the appetizers, all 3 main dishes within the degustation menu.  All meats were cooked in an excellent way, juicy and tender.  Hmm, the desserts, so so.  It's not their signature or attraction.  The pheasant was dry for me.

We went there on Sunday.  Pretty empty. No need to reserve a table.  But please do so for dinner.
