😍 5/5 - I'm a big fan of northern European culture, beginning east

I'm a big fan of northern European culture, beginning east of the Elbe River. Once the Berlin wall, and with it the USSR, got self-destructed I spent nearly a decade doing business in places not much seen by Wessis the previous 50 years. To my eye the areas west, having been substantially rebuilt after 1945, are a lot less interesting than to the east where economic restraints minimized recovery from the war. But an unintended result was that these countries became a kind of museum of cultures which were, in the end, about the people themselves anyway. And they of course endured. There's a commonality about many things once you cross the Elbe, particularly with food. I'm inclined to think this ultimatately results from having to fashion a cuisine based, of economic necessity, on crops that grow in short summers and very cold winters. This Czech restaurant is a fine throwback to an earlier age, with food and "Old Bohemia" service that is about as close to home as you'll get this side of Prague. I had my first taste here recently on a friend's recommendation. Headcheese starter, then duck with cabbage and dumplings, several rounds of pils and dessert crepes: all terrific. The restaurant shares the building with the Bohemian National Hall which offers considerable information about Czech history and culture, along with regular events, performance or film. I got lucky years ago in being tutored about Czech things by a girl back in Austin, where a number of Czech families live. She baked the lightest of kolaches from the cookbook her Babička left her, and her sweet memory together with this fine dinner made the evening one I will surely revisit soon. But I take nothing away from this experience by saying that next time I'm in town I'll head for the Ukrainian restaurants in NOHO. These days I suspect I won't be the only one doing so.
