20 Buzz-Worthy Cafes & Places for Kaffee & Tea in Hannover, Germany

1/24/2017

Picture
Forget Paris. Forget London. Big city Europe is run down and riddling with overcrowded and overpriced cafes. Hannover has a one-of-a-kind cafe life. With plenty of indoor-outdoor seating, you will enjoy these cafes yearround. Each cafe boasts their own flavor, from coffee to decor to loyal guests.

There are so many amazing cafes, it's impossible to feature them all. The best part of this article is that it features mainly independent cafes. Are you ready to get your buzz on? If so, try one of these 20 cafes.
Picture
Cafe Audrey -Aegidientorplatz 
Cute, quaint and quiet, this "under the sea-themed" cafe inspires my ultra-feminine energy to sing, dance and live through the beauty of Audrey Hepburn.

Inspired by the beautiful Audrey Hepburn, this café inspires me to live in indulgence – with cake and coffee that is. During the summer, the café has an open-air patio where you can sit (or lie) on a couch draped with a canopy to enjoy your “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” I love the chai lattes, and pretty much everything else. *NOTE: CAFE AUDREY'S HAS CLOSED IN 2017.*

Coffee & Chocolate - Altstadt
Part cafe, part chocolate shop, nestle onto the wooden benches with a hot cup of Joe. The interior is tiny, but don't let that stop you from trying a fine latte. You'll find two "scroll" menus, one for tea and the other for coffee and chocolate-related drinks. I liked the strawberry teas and of course, the lattes. 
Picture
Cafe Konrad - Altstadt
In Old Town, meander down Knochenhauerstrasse to this two-story café that has some of the best cakes in town. I experienced my first German cake here with the “apfelmangosahne” (apple mango cream) cake. After that, I was hooked. I tried so many cakes at Konrad’s I lost count. If you order to go, don’t worry about losing the frosting. The barista will delicately wrap the cake in a foiled swan so you can carefully walk it home. Konrad also displays at least one vegan cake everyday. This is a first come, first serve place. Once the cake is gone, its gone for the day. It's a popular brunch place and is open late!

Helene Schiffers Schokolade Café – Altstadt
First, the owner is one of the nicest Germans I ever met. Warm and smiling, she and I would converse in English and some broken German. Second, the place is just down right adorable as she sells, and serves her coffee in, the famous handmade Polish cookery and pottery and chocolate gifts. Finally, the coffee and chocolate drinks are addicting and effective, meaning if you want a coffee buzz her coffee will do the trick. In the winter (or what the heck why not year round), I recommend the hot chocolate coffee. During the Christmas Market she’ll have some already made in a pot, but everything she makes is fantastic. *Closed in 2018*
Picture
Picture
Glücksmoment - Altstadt - 
This ultra-feminine cafe is one of Altstadt's kuchen hotspots. From tortes to cakes to cream pies, get your blood sugar inspired by the sweet taste of life. This cafe serves coffee and tea in modern 1700's-looking floral dish ware. It's one of Altstadt's most popular cafes, specifically for brunch. It moved down the street in 2018. 
Picture
Holländische Kakao-Stube – Mitte
Everyone in Hannover knows about this café. Not only has the café been around before World War II, but also it is the finest cake one may ever eat in Germany. There must be a secret to the way the cake and the frostings are stirred, beaten and whipped. The Frankfurter Kranz is a sign that heaven on earth exists, but if you're not into cake, try the hot chocolate. Take home some of the finest made chocolate and cookies in town. The price is worth it. 
Picture
Café Kränzchen - Altstadt
​
In Old Town, walk down Knochenhaurstrasse and on the left side of the road, look for a window glistening with cakes. The exterior boasts funky yellow and purple colors with wooden chairs plastered on the siding, which is unlike the tasteful interior. I have tasted almost every cake here, but I devoured the Frankfurter kranz. It's a bit different than the kakao-stube, but equally delicious. The half-liter lattes are plentiful and eating cake in is a bit cheaper than take away. You can get a coffee and a piece of cake for about 5 euros. ​Note: This cafe has been replaced by Glucksmoment in 2018! 
Picture
Picture
Kurt 16 - Mitte
This is one of my favorite places for coffee, tea and for working. Chic and clean, Kurt 16 is a hotel lobby bar, cafe and restaurant. Because of my regular presence, the bar staff often treated me to an extra couple cookies served with my mango green tea or caffee latte that overflows with froth. Wi-fi is only for hotel guests. 
Picture
Picture
Der Nachbar - Linden
Located in the popular, Faust and Mephisto artist colony, Der Nachbar is a cool, trendy and hipster-friendly cafe. From tea to kaffee, you can find it all, including live music. Fuck yoga, kick start your weekend with a little jazz-jam-out-espresso-laden worship on select weekend mornings. You'll definitely find artists here.  
Picture
Cafe Kopi - Nordstadt
Whether you crave a cappuccino or a slice of cake, Cafe Kopi is a must visit in Nordstadt. The interior fuses modern funky vibes that invites coffee-drinkers to sit, chat and relax for hours. During the summer months, enjoy house made "hausegemachte"beverages like lime-ginger soda, lemon peach iced tea or cold brew coffee. You'll find a mix of locals, students and the young-at-heart.  
Picture
Picture
Wohnbar - Mitte
This is one of my favorite Hannover cafes and one of the least discovered places in central Hannover. The two sections feature different vibes. The back is a relaxed, non-traditional shop/meet-up area where the front glistens with a beautiful window front  that changes with the seasons. The cafe has a wonderful olive tree that ignited my souls with memories of traveling through the Mediterranean. I have fond memories of this place because I sat underneath that olive tree and wrote my last letter to Hannover blog. 
Picture
Kaffepause - Linden
This is one of the very few cafes open on Sundays, and luckily, they always serve “nusskuchen” (nut cake) on Sunday. The interior has several segments where moms can take kids in the back room to play.  In the summer, enjoy the backyard patio, where ancient-looking tables sit amidst brick walls covered in dangling vines.
Picture
Picture
Tulipano Cafe & Bar - Liste
This cafe is like a European dream come true (from an American point of view). Upon entering, you'll walk past beautifully potted plants, to sit either in a bay window or among the newly wooden tables. They serve at least one cake per day, but feature other snacks and small bites. I recommend the lattes! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
6 Sinne Sky Bar - Mitte
If you want to discover one of the best views in town, head to the chic 6 Sinner Sky Bar. I have mixed feelings about this bar. The bar is no doubt chic, fancy and classy. It’s beautiful and I enjoyed my quiet Sunday mornings of writing while overlooking the views. I literally had the whole place to myself on some Sunday mornings. The cafe prices are more expensive since it's a swanky place, but the price, and the view are worth it. A second location on the leine next to Altstadt has opened in 2018. 
Picture
Teestüebchen_ – Altstadt
This café may very well be the most popular café in Hannover. Located in Ballhofplatz (stop 25), this historic café is as cute inside as it is outside. Family operated since 1970,their popularity continues to grow with newcomers and city visitors.
 
Here you can order over 40 handcrafted teas and also coffees, cakes and sandwiches. Most desire to sit outside, and well, who can blame them? It’s vital to take advantage of any ounce of sun you can soak up in Northern Germany. During the summer months, you can find a late Saturday morning jazz concert and for the rest of the year, enjoy watching the ivy foliate between deep green to fire engine red.I recommend the Blüte von Himilaya tea paired with a slice of traditional NYC-style cheesecake.

Picture
24 Grad - Nordstadt
This cafe reminds me of the Pacific Northwest. It has that hip semi-grunge vibe thanks to some thrift-store couches and chalk-board looking paint. Like Cafe Kopi, you'll find a mix of locals, mainly young hipsters following the lineage of their elders to eat, drink and be merry. 

​Mezzo - Liste
This beloved Liste cafe sits behind the HBF and is one of the most popular cafes in the neighborhood. It's a popular place to meet for brunch or a late-night sangria. The interior is big and spacious so there is plenty of seating, especially during non-peak hours. 

Das Machwitz Cafe - Mitte
Das Machwitz sits nearby Altstadt, next to the Markthalle. This is one of Hannover's oldest roasters so you'll notice some old-school logos and decor. The inside is small, featuring a mix of tables and bench-style seating. Here, you'll find life-long locals who support this historic cafe. 

Zurück Zum Glück - Zoo
​Unless you hang out in the zoo area, most people would never visit this cafe.  The modern decor gives a new vibration to the old neighborhood. It's part cafe, part restaurant, but the options are also vegetarian and vegan friendly! I recommend brunch or the vegetarian burger. (Vegans say no cheese, please, "kein kase bitte.") If you're not hungry, just go for the latte. Soy and lactose-free options are available!

Hugo's - Mitte
Located next to the HBF (central train station), Hugo's is a place where the Buddha meets Martin Luther. The historic building has been transformed into a cafe/restaurant. Covered by a glass ceiling, the indoor/outdoor area is open year round. Snuggle up in a swanky couch underneath a neon blanket, or wash the fountain-Buddha's feet with your sins. It's a business-class type of vibe and the hot fresh fruit tea is as interesting as the "elites" who dine there.

8 Things You Need to Know Before Traveling to Europe

1/17/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Do you plan on visiting Europe? Many perceive Europe as progressive and offering the best public transit in the world. Although true, many European countries still live an “old school” life where cash is king and shops are closed on Sundays. So this is what to know before you travel to Europe.

Bring Plenty of Cash...and a Credit Card
Many popular European countries use cash as the main form of payment. Credit cards are very popular in the United States and many people do not carry cash. The opposite applies in Europe. With the exceptions of the United Kingdom and small eastern cities that depend on tourism like Riga, Latvia, you will need cash to pay for everything. Many businesses in popular countries like Germany do not accept Visa or MasterCard, and only accept Deutsch bank cards or cash. In the Netherlands, there are some grocery stores that do not accept cash, only credit cards. Bring a widely accepted card like a Visa or Mastercard. Identity theft is possible, so try to use a bank card as little as possible.
*And if you are in Prague, don't exchange money at restaurants or bars - its a scam! Use a money exchange for all currency transactions. 

Validate Your Train or Bus Ticket
Most bus and train ticket stands require cash. Most do not accept bills higher than twenty Euros. Once you pay for your ticket, look to see if your ticket is stamped with the date and time. If not, look on the platform or inside the bus or train for a validation box. Ticket patrollers who do not see a time and date stamped are not lenient with unmarked tickets. They will issue a fine, which ranges between 40 to 100 Euro, depending on the city and country policies.

Travel Tuesday through Saturday
Most European countries still value “Sunday Rest Days.” Main shops close, with the exception of tourist areas or central train station bars and cafes. Depending on the country, some places close Sunday and Monday due to slow business.

Download a Translation App
English is the common language, but many Europeans do not speak English even in mainstream destinations. The French feel strongly about speaking French and many Spanish people do not speak English. Besides the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Scandinavian countries speak the most English because of the abundance of non-translated movies and music that originated from the States and UK.
Picture
Water is Not Free
In America, water is served with every meal. In Europe, water is not free. Expect to pay between two to seven Euros per bottle of water. Also, many European restaurants serve carbonated water. It is not acceptable to bring your own beverage into the restaurant.

Bathrooms are Not Free
This is one of the most challenging aspects of Europe. Public and free toilets do not exist. From train station restrooms to streetside stalls, bathrooms charge between thirty Euro cents and one Euro to enter. Some restaurants also charge for the bathroom. This is seen especially at beach clubs where high traffic of toilet use is necessary.
​
Bring a Multi-Country Adapter and Converter
Although the United Kingdom is part of the European Union, they operate on their own electrical circuits. Purchase a multi-country adapter that is UK and EU compatible—and double check that it not only adapts to the plugins in that country, but also converts the electricity to work with their voltage. In the States the typical voltage is around 120V, but in most of Europe it’s around 220V—that means if you only change the plugin size but not the voltage, you’ll fry your electronics. Use this list to find the right voltage and plugin type for your destination.

Use Common Sense

All you young backpackers, this message is for you. Europe is a dream destination to meet locals and party until the sun rises. Sadly, some cities in Europe have changed and it's nothing like it was even back in 2014. Terrorism is on the rise, and you MUST exercise common sense, specifically young solo female travelers when out late at night. In Germany, drinking laws have changed in many cities and you can no longer drink alcohol on trains and in the train station/platform. Some cities in Germany have instilled a call-help line, so once you leave your late-night destination, you call the number, and then you call it back once you get home. Now it's important to budget for cab or Uber rides. It's better to be safe than sorry.

The 7 Most Beautiful Riviera Maya Beaches You Must Visit (and it's nowhere near Cancun)

1/11/2017

2 Comments

 
Picture
Tulum
If you're searching for white sand and coconuts falling into your lap, then head to the Riviera Maya,  Mexico’s sun-kissed gem boasting endless miles of salty seashores and beautiful bikinis. The Mayan Riviera stretches over 90-miles between Puerto Morelos to Tulum, Mexico. Those who travel to this region instantly fall in love with the energy and beauty of the oceans. White-sands, friendly-smiles and affordable accommodations attract foreign backpackers and world travelers to unite with the rising sun. These seven beaches are the best, and most beautiful, shorelines in the Quintana Roo region.
Picture
Xcacel Beach
Located just south of the Chemuyil exit is the government-run Xcacel beach. Preserved for its nature, Xcacel is most famously known for sea turtle nesting. This stunning beach is perfect for those who enjoy remote destinations without hotels and cafes in the backdrop. Early in the morning you maybe the only visitor on the beach. The beach is easy to miss since it's off the  main highway. Keep your eyes peeled for a billboard and a tiny wooden sign with an arrow on it. 

Visitors are asked to donate 15-25 pesos per person as an entrance fee to the beach. The beach is open between 9:00-5:00pm.

Boca Paila Beach
Boca Paila is a remote destination located in the Kian Sa’an biosphere. Guests drive or bike along a dusty pot-holed road to find remote shorelines, untouched by tourism. DO NOT drive fast. These are serious pot holes that you leave you wheel-less in the middle of nature. You can also rent a bike in Tulum and pedal the dusty, windy street. 
​
Beach goers experience solitude, creating a man versus nature exploration. The ocean showcases traditional aqua-green flows of gently rolling waves.
Picture
Tulum Beach
Tulum attracts nature-lovers, yogis and energy healers to explore the magnetic pulse of the ancient Mayan culture. It's not uncommon to find people practicing yoga  or worshipping the sand. 
Beyond the Ruins, Tulum homes 60 archeological structures. Most beachgoers head to the protected, nature-preserved beach, which is the north end of the Hotel Zone. The beach is filled with open air and beautiful sunrise views. The sun sets over the palm trees, which lights up the sky with effervescent colors. Biking and hitch-hiking are popular modes of transportation to get to and from the beach and Tulum town. It's a great place to catch a rainbow on a cloudy/rainy day. 
Picture
Akumal
Akumal is 60-miles south of Cancun and is the ultimate sea turtle destination. Calm blue-green waters wade slowly atop white-sand shores while palm trees flow with the gentle wind. Fish swim in ankle deep water and snorkels swim to over-head-deep water in search for sea turtles grazing on sea grass. Guests can see many “No Tocar La Tortuga,” signs which means, “do not touch the sea turtles.” Touching turtles produces lesions and skin diseases from the oils and suntan lotion from human skin. The locals hope tourists follow these rules to keep the environment intact.
Picture
Picture
Puerto Morelos
Puerto Morelos is a popular destination welcoming families and a mature crowd. The Puerto Morelos atmosphere is one to experience. Pelicans hangout at the pier, waiting for leftovers from the local fishermen. Stingrays swim between anchored boats and bury themselves underneath the sand. The snorkeling is the best in the area. The protected reef is a short boat ride from the shoreline boasting vibrant colors, fish and marine life. If snorkeling is not an option, there are plenty of nearby cafes and on-beach massage tables to occupy the time.
Picture
Picture
Playa del Carmen
Playa attracts the younger, backpacker crowd who seek sun, sand, sea and parties. Every January, thousands of edm and shit-bangin' shufflin' techno junkies (aka myself) head to the PDC for the BPM Festival for countless days of nonstop partying. 

The main tourist area, along Fifth Avenue, homes cafes, shops, massage parlors, bars, clubs and hotels. The atmosphere is vibrant and eclectic; perfect for those who want to party until sunrise. For those who desire a more-quiet experience, head north of Mamita’s Beach or south towards Playa Car. The yellow sand glows beautifully with the sunrays. Playa offers open-air views, perfect for watching a sunrise at any location in Playa.
Picture
Tulum Ruins Beach
The  most quintessential Mayan beach is the Tulum Ruins Beach. Clear ocean-blue water washes up on white sandy shores just below the cliff-perched ruins. History and magic comes alive when sun-worshipping the ancient Mayan energy. The beach is smaller and homes plenty of fertile plant life growing along the rocks. Tulum Ruins beach accessible either from the ruins or from a rocky cliff-side trail from the main Tulum beach. It’s a perfect spot for photographers to capture contrast amidst the structure, sky and sea.

What's your favorite beach in the Riviera Maya?!

8 Cultural Bars & Pubs in Prague

1/5/2017

1 Comment

 
Picture
Prague's nightlife is unlike any other city in Europe. There is no shortage of creative, chic and shit-hole bars scattered throughout the city. Whether you crave Czech beer or absynthe, you're in for a wild night. That is just how things roll in Prague. 

But, why not go for something more cultural? Culture means something different to every traveler, but in Prague, it's all about the beer. Czech beer is as sacred as pure osmosis water, it's the finest of the fine and without it, the nightlife would not be as interesting.  

If you want a little culture or class to go with your beer, look no further than these eight bars and pubs.
 
Picture
Provaznice
This restaurant/bar is my favorite in Prague. It's cheap, it's where the locals go and they have the zodiac painted on their wall. The menu is vegetarian friendly and I recommend the garlic soup. I also call this the Wooden Boobs Bar because on the wall is a wooden statue of a woman. Every now and then a jolly young jock takes his bands to a nice squeeze while his buddy captures an image with his Iphone. My husband discovered this place years ago thanks to local tour guide Martina, who offers Trabant and beer tours. She'll take you to all the historic hotspots and taste test czech beer from the finest pubs in Prague. 

John Lennon Pub

For a little slice of British heaven, be sure to visit the beloved John Lennon Pub. The interior fuses the best of historical "underground" exposed brick walls plastered with Lennon images and records. Be sure to ring mum in the red telephone booth to let her know that you'll be home late. Pretty much anytime that is not winter, enjoy the pub's wide selection of rum in the Romantic Garden. This bar/restaurant is a place that fuses old-world charm and pop culture. The pub is nearby the Lennon Wall. 
Picture
Picture
Anonymous
If you love V for Vendetta (or men who hide behind masks) be sure to visit Anonymous. Three souls operate the bar - V for Vendetta, the story of 1605 Gunpowder, Treason & Plot and you guessed it, Anonymous. It's quirky, cultural and expensive to say the least, but at least there's plenty of space and nice-looking bartender biceps to stare at. 
Buddha Bar - Prague
The Buddha Bar is a global restaurant and bar that prides itself on its world-renowned Buddha Bar music CD's. Explore the zen life in one of Prague's most chic restaurant/bar establishments. Drinks are pricy, and the staff looks like they should be on the front cover of GQ magazine. The upstairs bar overlooks a balcony of lamps that hover above an oversized Buddha. Live DJ's play deep house and lounge tracks throughout the week and during weekend brunch. The BB attracts a more mature crowd. This is a great place to pregame before the hardcore dance clubs. 
Picture
U Fleku
Beer lovers unite under one roof to savor the best of czech beer and food. Located in the heart of Prague, U Fleku  brewery and restaurant resides in one of the most historic areas of Prague. In fact, the ir brewing roots date back to 1499. It has a similar Munich-vibe where guests enjoy their brews at long wooden tables. Along with the local beer, enjoy czech music and the musical cabernet every Friday night. 

Black Angel's
This underground hotel bar is like stepping back into a medieval castle. I don't remember much at this point in the evening besides the amazing ceilings that look like an underground cave. This is a place for the fancy, but feature local options like absythne. In fact, the menu prices are so scary expensive I don't think I even drank here, but just checked out the cool vibes. And its beyond cool, it's an award-winning bar. 

Cafe-Bar Propaganda
This bar is one of the most favorites among backpackers. And once you look at the menu, you'll understand why, beer is cheaper than apple juice. Imagine that!? With tons of good press, Propaganda must be doing something right (besides just offering free wi-fi) as the bar is always busy. The decor is nothing special but the atmosphere is cool considering you hear a mix of native and foreign tongue.

TÝNSKÁ BAR AND BOOKS
​Similar to the Buddha Bar, this book and bar joint is an international chain that originates in New York City. This cocktail and whisky bar is not a place to show up in your track suit or with feet decorated in a pair of Chuck's. For a stiff price, guests enjoy jazz, burlesque shows and some of most unique cocktails in the CR. If you're looking for something "healthy" get a green thumb with the "Beet & Peat" cocktail, which includes beet and ginger shrub, ginger liquor and fresh lemon. The only thing you won't be doing is reading books thanks to the ultra dim lights. 

What's your favorite bar in Prague?

8 Unique Nightlife Spots for Music & Dancing in the Heart of Prague (Praha 1 District)

1/2/2017

Picture
Prague, like New York City, is a place that never sleeps. During the day, visitors admire medieval architecutre and museums, but once the sun sets, Prague transforms into one of the most active nightlife cities in Europe. From chic bars to hole in the wall night clubs, Prague offers something for every budget. Some clubs are open seven days per week where others operate Thursday through the weekend. 

Prague is a big city, and with over 400+ clubs in the surrounding area, here are ___ of the most notable nightlife spots in central Prague. 
Picture

Buddha Bar - Prague
The Buddha Bar is a world-wide restaurant and bar that prides itself on its world-renowned Buddha Bar music CD's. Explore the zen life in one of Prague's most chic restaurant/bar establishments. Drinks are pricy, and the staff looks like they should be on the front cover of GQ magazine. The upstairs bar overlooks a balcony of lamps that hover above an oversized Buddha. Live DJ's play deep house and lounge tracks throughout the week and during weekend brunch. The BB attracts a more mature crowd. This is a great place to pregame before the hardcore dance clubs. 
Jakubská 8, Praha 1

Karlovy Lazne Club
Karlovy claims that it is the largest club in the EU. Once you enter its mysterious doors, you have five floor options to choose from. Each area features a different tone and atmosphere. Some floors play mainstream / hip-hop, where other floors play dance music. If you're not into dancing, find the 5th level chillout floor where you can sit cafe style at tables or on pillows atop of plush rugs. Ques are long and the crowd is younger. Many pub crawls dump their pack of drunken souls here. The club is near Charles Bridge. 
Smetanovo nabrezi 198/1, Old Town, Prague 1

Roxy
Roxy often features popular European headliner DJ's such as Jooris Voorn and other bigwig EU spindoctors. There is a small chillout zone chocked full of white leather couches. Walk down the stairs to a wide-open dance floor that overlooks the DJ booth and an audio-visual screen in the backdrop. Check the schedule to see what type of music will be featured for the night, though it mostly plays electronic.
Dlouhá 33, Prague 1

Chapeu Rouge
Bar, dance club and underground get-togethers - the CR is a one-stop nightlife shop. The deeper you go, the darker the lights and the music. It's quirky, but not fancy. It's a place to sport your dancing shoes and skinny jeans to the vibration of the music. The entry level is the bar, the middle level is a dance club and the underground level is part bar / underground dance club. The underground level gets smoky and you may occassionally see a bag of drugs, but as long as you have your head on straight, it's a fun time. 

Jakubská 647 Prague 1-Old Town

Radost FX
This club features more mainstream music like rap, hip-hop and R&B. The club attracts a mix of students, international travelers and locals alike. This decent-sized club features a chillout zone for those to rest their dancing feet. **This is located in Praha 2 but added this in since its a popular spot.**

Bělehradská 120 120 00 Prague 2

Double Trouble
Double Trouble is the right choice for a wild night on a cheap budget. This two-level bar/club establishment is nothing fancy. It's practical decor inspires the basics of nightlife - getting drunk and dancing. Some local bar crawls pit stop here for a cheap shot and a dance. 

Melantrichova 17, Praha 1

M1 Lounge
Open 7 days per week with 7 different DJ's and 7 different nighly parties, M1 is a place for the lucky at heart. M1 prides itself as being the only "ultra lounge" in Prague. The sleek and chic decor attracts jet-setter wanna-bes to chill in an "art-deco" leather couch with a cocktail in hand. The music ranges from house to hip hop.  
​Masna 1, Prague 1, Czech Republic

Atelier
Atelier is a place to "chill inn." The Chill Inn zone features pool table, food menus and even a swanky buddha. The prices are fair and even have a variety of nonalcoholic options such as coffees, teas and alcohol-free beer. If your aiming for VIP status, book one of the tables behind the plush-satin red straps. The club/bar contains a handful of resident DJ's and loyal locals. And if you're anything like the Big Lebowski, check out the rugs, it really ties the room together. 
Rybná 16, Praha 1
