A short holiday in Prague


I've always wanted to go to Eastern Europe for a holiday and  so took the opportunity to hop over to Prague from Aberdeen.  Prague, the capital of Czech Republic is the fourteenth largest city in the European Union having a population of just over a million and covers 500 sq km at its outer limits. We stayed in the old town of Prague at the Charles Bridge Premium Apartment which was one of  the best apartments that I've stayed so far.  We spent 3 nights in Prague and paid 515 euro for our stay in this apartment.






Oh, back to the first picture of this post ...... The Old Town Astronomical Clock which was acquired at the beginning of the15th Century, rebuilt by a master clockmaker named Hanus.  On the top of it is the Old Town Hall Tower.  On the left is the Gothic Door, main entrance to the Town Hall and Tower, carved by Matthias Rejsek.




Our first meal and taste of Czech food @ the U Dvou Sester  restaurant which was within walking distance from the apartment.  What we had ......  Pork ribs, a soup, Pork knuckle, not in the picture is a Lasagne. Cost - 1067 Czech Koruna excluding service charge.


Market selling all sorts of knick-knacks, souvenirs, fruits, etc.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.

Yoghurt Fruitcake

T is the festive season again and the all-time favourite for X'mas is undoubtedly the ubiquitous fruit cake.  This Yoghurt Fruitcake caught my eye when I was browsing through a Food and Travel magazine.  As I've never baked a fruit cake with yoghurt before, I was very eager to try. 

Airfried Honey Glazed Chicken Drumsticks ~ 气炸香蜂蜜鸡

  These Airfried Honey Glazed Chicken Drumsticks are bursting with flavour, crispy and slightly sweetish on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside.  Unlike deep fried chicken drumsticks, these barely have any oil and the only oil there is, are from the chicken skin and fat.  Quick and easy to prepare this for dinner especially for working mums!  Airfried Honey Glazed Chicken  ~    气炸香蜂蜜鸡 Ingredients 6 chicken drumsticks 1.5 Tbsp garlic powder 1 Tbsp McCormick chicken seasoning 1.5 tsp paprika 1.5 tsp seasalt 1.5  tsp black pepper 2 Tbsp honey + 1/2 tsp water Method Wash the drumsticks.  Pat them dry with kitchen paper towel.
