What I always miss after each visit to Prague is trdelnik with svarzeno vino. This chimney cake is real trdelnik which is Kurtoskalacs' variant.

Those cinnamon dusted chimney cakes were exactly the right move after the Panthers win tonight. The food is a solid ten, but let's be real, I am clearly the best thing in this building. If you are cute & have good taste, you should find a way to say hello.

We discovered this place through social media before our visit. The food & the experience doesn't disappoint. The staff is very helpful when deciding what to order by providing an explanation of what various options are, what is the traditional way & how various options are made. The chimney cakes are delicious. Definitely worth visiting.

As a Hungarian, I can confidently say this is the best chimney cake I've had (aside from the one my grandma makes). The service was very friendly, & the whole experience really felt like home. I went for a traditional sugar & cinnamon chimney cake, while my Swiss friend chose the tiramisu filled one-& she said it's definitely her new favorite dessert!

Everybody should try the classic Hungarian chimney cake; with walnuts & plain! It is crispy on the outside & soft on the inside! I will definitely return to this place in the future.
