My pleasure! I was there :) though I did not stop for a bite :( If you can see the sidewalk sandwich board, this small cafe specializes in "wild duck, deer goulash, salmon steak, beef tartar, trout, pork medallons, fallow deer". Could be an adventure ...
The seat I frequent is in a first class rail car, daily servicing Central European cities, towns and villages. From this seat, over a decade ago, I enjoyed the revelation of a familiar yet new world. As a young boy I discovered and followed various Eastern Bloc shortwave radio stations from my small town bedroom (DXing), imagining far away places and people. Radio Prague eventually became my best virtual friend. As I watched the passing scenery on my first train ride through Austria and the Czech Republic to Prague, I realized the world I had imagined -- the innumerable mental images I had collected and stored over my younger years -- was mismatched with the visual realities streaming past. Naturally, truth resides in the mind of the beholder -- and the best reality is created with all of one's enabled senses. Therefore, I now explore and take detailed notes -- from Seat 96.
