The story
Kamin in Prague draws its culinary identity from Czech cuisine rooted in the Beskyd region, reimagined through a modern lens. Brothers Jan and Mara built the kitchen around seasonal ingredients and straightforward techniques learned growing up among the hills. Their approach favors clarity over decoration, letting regional produce dictate the menu. This dedication to refined Czech cooking has earned the Gault&Millau guide a score of twelve, noting how their thoughtful plating highlights years of professional refinement.
The lunch menu features Grandpa’s smoked pork shoulder served with lard pastry and mustard glaze, alongside a vegetable cream enriched with pumpkin and thyme oil. Main courses rotate between Mary, a rolled lamb preparation paired with traditional potato pancakes, and duck accompanied by cabbage pie. Each dish emphasizes local sourcing, a quality the reviewers praised when describing the kefir langos topped with sheep cheese cream and wild garlic. These Czech dishes consistently highlight seasonal harvests, while the sweet finish follows the same principle, with curd cheese panna cotta balanced against poppy seed cream and plum brandy.
Marek oversees the evening flow, applying his background in music and visual projects to shape the dining pace. The interior remains deliberately simple and clean, directing attention toward the food and conversation. Guests encounter a steady cadence where service feels unhurried yet precise. This grounded environment supports the restaurant’s commitment to straightforward, well-executed meals without unnecessary distraction.
