Eating and Shopping in Old Town

Divinis

Divinis is a cozy intimate restaurant serving excellent Northern Italian cuisine and top-notch wines. The menu is small, but prominent Czech Chef Zdeněk Pohlreich, who uses only fresh imported ingredients from the sun-drenched Mediterranean, makes the dishes expertly and with love.

La Casa Blů

The flavors of South America are very much alive in this cozy, colorful cantina in the heart of Old Town.

La Casa Blů is non-smoking as well, which makes it even more welcoming. La Casa Blů features a native South American staff and is decorated with a mix and match of wooden furniture, an old but very appropriate wooden floor and just about anything you

Hard Rock Cafe

Started in London by two American fellows Hard Rock Café is famous all around the world with its 138 locations in 42 countries. The memorabilia found in the Hard Rock Cafes is a collection of over 70,000 items that is by far the largest of it’s kind, but it all started with one guitar (a Fender Lead II) from Eric Clapton who was a regular at a hip café in London where the attitude was anything goes. He gave the guitar to the men to hang on the wall and the next week a Gibson Les Paul arrived from Pete Townsend with a note that stated “mine’s as good as his. Love, Pete.”
