If u want good halušky then u must go to north of slovakia and try some of them over there cuz u will get it fresh there and dont forget to order žinčica too ;D
@@AlexMarkTravel Order zincica on your own risk tho'. It takes some getting used to. Also, make sure toilettes are close by, because it can get your digestive tract going real fast :D
Looks great! Would love to taste it. In February I was in the city of Nitra (80 km from Bratislava) but in whole down town Nitra I could not found a single Slovak restaurant ....there were only Burger, Sushi, Kebab and Pizza restaurants. 🤨😪 I was really disappointed! The locals told me I should go to the country side to find real Slovak kitchen.
Thanks! I get comments from Slovak viewers that next time I should try local places in the north of Slovakia as they have the best food, but as you can see you can eat some very good Slovak food in Bratislava as well. Disappointed to hear about that town and the fast food predominance.
Hi from Slovakia :) In the "Sviečková na smotane" there is no mustard in the sauce, the sauce is made from root vegetables > carrot, parsley, celery, onion and spices > bay leaf, salt, whole black pepper, ground black pepper, 33% whipping cream, oil :) You should try bacon, sausage, other meat products, haluski somewhere in Horehronie region, preferably at someone's home in the village, the quality is incomparable higher to what you ate in a restaurant :) Wish you and your family nice week, subscribed :)
Hello, thank you for explaining about Sviečkova, the sauce had a great taste, and I thought mustard had to be involved, but obviously not. 😀 For haluski I will take your advice as in the pub they were OK, but nothing special, obviously like some other countries smaller cities and towns offer even better food. Cheers!
Mustard is present in the recipe. You can fry the meat on the pan and then spread mustard on it or just put mustard to the sauce. And then you put it everything together like a stew. So your taste was right about mustard 😉
Kozlovna is traditional Czech restaurant. We were a republic named Czechoslovakia in the past. Czcehs are ours brothers ❤Kozlovna is named from czech beer KOZEL
You've been only to Bratislava, so you haven't really been to Slovakia. Ordering garlic soup in a bread for 11,20€ and then not eating the whole damn thing and ordering another meal for 14,90€ is just crazy. Btw, that serving in a bread is just a tourist thing...
Hello, the garlic soup was recommended to me by some Slovak friends of mine. That bread is just too big to eat it as a whole. 😅 Of course in Bratislava center there are tourist things and foods it is expected. Next time we will try to visit some other part of Slovakia. But we also had quite good experience in Bratislava.
It's not pomegranate on top of the svickova, its lingonberries or cranberries. Also called preiselbeeren in Germany. The Czech national dish, but the Czechs have no mustard in the sauce.
I'm amazed by the drinks as well as the food. Nothing like that in the Midwest USA, Blue Cheese sandwich!! Oh yeah!. The other cheese reminds me of Pimento Cheese. Garlic soup! Oh yum! That bacon looks raw lol We eat such crap in the US
You can get Wienerschnitzel in Midwest. It's only called Pork Tenderloin! And in Ratskeller in Indy you can get more, for example Sauerbraten which is close yo Shvickova.
@@botalm1878 I'm a Hoosier--I know what a tenderloin is LOL. It's a plate-sized piece of pork with a tiny bun lol Love 'em! I used to work out at the Y at the Ateheneum where the Rathskeller is located in Indy--miss it.

Po Slovensky sa vyslovuje fruštik-raňajky, fruštikovať - raňajkovať teraz sa ten výraz už vôbec nepoužíva, ale ako názov predajne je dobrý je to milá spomienka na dávne časy. Môj otec ešte fruštikoval 😊
Last time I was in Slovakia (near Strbske Pleso in the Tatras) in the late 1980's, the grocery stores had one aisle of sad and very limited veggies and fruit, one aisle of canned food, and one well-stocked aisle of liquor. The few restaurants were ok but tended to favor very heavy (starchy/fatty) food. There were no gourmet bakeries or "cute sandwiches". We ate thin soups or meat out of tins on hard bread at the worksite. Plenty of booze, though.
Thanks for sharing this interesting experience. Though place you were at is a rural area even today, it obviously changed a lot since 1980s. 🙂 Booze thing never changed since they have as a normal offer 11% alcohol beer on tap in pubs. 😀
We were there as student volunteers for a few weeks to (supposedly) maintain the mountain trails but were instead put to work building a new ski lift, digging holes for the lift posts. The work leader, a large heavy-bearded man from Kosice, fed us the bread, meat paste, and salty mineral water at break time. The last few days started off with shots of Cuban rum. Not a lot got done but we did enjoy sliding down the ski jump on empty plastic bags (the lower section, not the actual jump itself). We had a great time.@@AlexMarkTravel
Ich bin Slowakin und muss zugeben,dass in den 80er auch so war.Aber wir dürfen nicht vergessen dass es mehr als 30 Jahre her ist.Als es den Kommunistischen Partei gab,konnten wir nirgendwohin reisen wir kannten nichts als eine Diktatur,die von inkompetenten Politikern regiert wurde.Deshalb bin ich nach Deutschland gegangen.Wenn sich das System verändert,lernen die Menschen und verbessern sich so auch das Land.Aber was hat sich nicht geändert und das bin ich sehr Stolz darauf ist unsere wunderschöne Natur und vieles mehr.Jedes Land,hat eigene Scharm dass dürfen wir nicht vergessen.
@@preponement Under socialism, it was probably not possible to get vegetables in the Tatras in winter, but in the summer you would have enjoyed the delicious home grown vegetables from the garden even under socialism. 100% better than the one in stores today, imported from Spain, Morocco and god knows where. As a Slovak, I don't even eat purchased vegetables, actually I don't even buy them. I live in the countryside and we grow our own tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, radishes, potatoes, peas, beans, etc. In capitalism, there is a large selection of vegetables even in winter, but they are expensive and mainly low-quality vegetables are imported to Slovakia from the west. That is why so many Slovaks are inclined towards Russia and not towards the USA and the EU, because the West still sucks us in terms of food quality. Prices like in the west and the quality of food and goods 2 and 3 class.

11° Plato is NOT 11% of alcohol. Plato scale. At least something, where Slovakia (and Czechia) differ from the rest of the world, when it comes to the "rating" of beer (by alcohol content). Btw. the music in the background is not Slovak. I could not understand a single word they were singing. Must have been some generic "Central European" folk music. Maybe Hungarian?
Yes, later more people told me that it was actually normal beer 4-5%, but the labeling they used was 11. Song is 100% Slovak, title is: "Ej jaki ši Maričko; Večar je, večar je". This for sure isn't Hungarian.
@@AlexMarkTravel Wow, I am amazed that I did not understand what they were singing. They are from Záhorie region and use a pretty old dialect or something. Usually I can understand people from that region.
4-5% usual beers, but some beers can go up to 9% and even 10% or more. There was misunderstanding in the restaurant and also they didn't write it correctly in the menu.
Bratislava is quite expensive compared to other cities. The prices are set for tourists, as 99% tourist use to visit Bratislava only. 11 euro for one soup is just crazy price. Unfortunately altrough Slovakia has many beautiful and interesting places to offer, the tourism is very undeveloped here, including transport. Great potential but not used.
Thanks for sharing. Yes, that's the major issue, no frequent flights to other towns and cities. Unfortunately it's not very easy to visit other parts of Slovakia.
I was in Bratislava last year, and they put sugar in the creamy mushroom soup... That's disgusting... Even worse than Hungarians who put sugar in green salad...
Nuz chlapce predrazene veci pre turistov si zaplatil ale ok mna tiez ojebali v Londyne :-p napr halusky bezne stali 3.50v 2018 teraz 7-10e bezne lebo nenazrate restauracie ... Zlodeji
Čo narobím, očividne je Bratislava čoraz turistickejšia. Stále dobrá skúsenosť, nemôžem sa sťažovať. Jedlo bolo dobré, mesto je veľmi pekné a čisté. Ľudia boli tiež veľmi milí.
halusky za 3,50 si mohol jest tak v nejakom pajzli a nie v normalnej restauracii. Za poslednych 10 rokov narstla priemerna mzda na slovensku takmer 2 nasobne, a kedze vsetko zdrazelo, tak je uplne prirodzene, ze narastli aj ceny v restauracnom sektore. Nikto Ti nekaze jest v restauracii, kludne si var doma, hadam nebudu predavat bez marze, len aby Tebe vyhoveli. Uvedom si, ze zdrazenie jedla je uplne prirodzene, kedze islo vsetko hore, personal, energie, najmy, suroviny atd. Ak im nadavas do zlodejov, tak ty si potom chudak
panko asi zostal hlboko v minulosti a inflacia mu nic nehovori... rovnako ako cena prenajmu priestorov a cena prace personalu v turisticky exponovanom mieste.
WOW most of that food was Hungarian, except for the Czech dumplings.... Halusky also called Haluska or Galuska is very Hungarian. The difference is in the cheese. Sheep vs cow. You do know that Slovakia did not exist before 1993 and was Hungary from about 950-1920 correct? Most of the so-called Slovak foods are actually Hungarian in origin. Just ask a Hungarian or take a trip to Budapest.
Thanks for the history lesson. 👍 But, what do you suggest, I should travel around the world and confront people about their own food, telling them: "Listen this is not your food this is your neighbors food." My travel vlogging wouldn't last long for sure! 😅😂🤣 Probably everywhere in the world neighboring countries share same or similar food, that is normal and expected. If you ask me Slovakia and its people deserved every bit of their land and their freedom! Cheers to Slovakia! 🍻
Dave you are wrong. Halusky made of potato and garlic with ship cheese and slanina on the top is totally Slovak. Its confirmed by the Court as origin. Slovakia has lot of mountains with ships. Hungary has no mountains these level so they changed halusky: instead of potates they put grain an cow cheese, of course what they had. Slovakia existed also before Second World War (very huge and rich industry) you should check facts. During Second World War Slovakia was badly forced by strong power to be on Germans side with Italians. In 1918 was part od Czechoslovakia federation and Chech and Slovak are nation brothers, some believe Czechoslovakia still exists. Before 1918 was a part of 42 nationalieties from central Europe and Balcan in one Austrian Empire for 1 000 years with the capital in Vienna. My grandfather born 1912 had a birth certificate in german oficial Empire language. In 5th century Hungarian, so called hunies came from Asia (typical hungarian language) and our Slovak king Pribina allowed them to settle down. Mostly men came on horses and never come back to Asia. They had Slovak wifes, that cook. Hungarians are Slovaks with little Asia mix, if you go to very 5th century.
@@marcelasotakova637 Ship cheese? There are no ships in Slovakia but brindza cheese is the Slovak version. As the Slovaks did not live outside of the mountains for the most part, they raised sheep. And what court said it is Slovak in origin? The EU? Or some court in Michalovce? Galuska/Haluska is probably some original food (potatoes did not get to Hungary until 1600s) and each side made it a bit differently.
@@daverichards308 Yes, in english its sheep cheese, there is no such word in english like bryndza. Yes, EU Court, they have list of food origin for all EU countries.
Halušky sú ľudové jedlo a sviečková je už sviatočné, tak nečudo že mu viac chutila Sviečková na smotane, ja by som si tiež dal radšej halušky, ale na halušky mu treba ísť na Liptov niekde na Kolibu a nie do Bratislavy.

Ďakujem za váš návrh, určite áno.
To víš že jo Čobole 😂 Proto všude po světě jsou naše piva a ty vaše zůstali někde v záchodě.
@@jakubv4446 no moc by som nebol hrdý ťa tie České štanky ale tak aj štanky sú evidentné obľúbené.

Bratislava is quite expensive compared to other cities. The prices are set for tourists, as 99% tourist use to visit Bratislava only. 11 euro for one soup is just crazy price.
Unfortunately altrough Slovakia has many beautiful and interesting places to offer, the tourism is very undeveloped here, including transport. Great potential but not used.
Thanks for sharing. Yes, that's the major issue, no frequent flights to other towns and cities. Unfortunately it's not very easy to visit other parts of Slovakia.
Ak myslíte nerozvinutý cestovný ruch a dopravu počas takzvaného kovidu tak máte 100% pravdu, ak nie, tak tárate hlúposti.
I was in Bratislava last year, and they put sugar in the creamy mushroom soup... That's disgusting... Even worse than Hungarians who put sugar in green salad...
Well good thing I didn't eat creamy mushroom soup! 😅
Lmao prices like in western europe
Depends where in Western Europe, there are plenty of countries much more expensive than this.
preco nedojdete v lete!
Budu, proč ne! 🙂
Nuz chlapce predrazene veci pre turistov si zaplatil ale ok mna tiez ojebali v Londyne :-p napr halusky bezne stali 3.50v 2018 teraz 7-10e bezne lebo nenazrate restauracie ... Zlodeji
Čo narobím, očividne je Bratislava čoraz turistickejšia. Stále dobrá skúsenosť, nemôžem sa sťažovať. Jedlo bolo dobré, mesto je veľmi pekné a čisté. Ľudia boli tiež veľmi milí.
halusky za 3,50 si mohol jest tak v nejakom pajzli a nie v normalnej restauracii. Za poslednych 10 rokov narstla priemerna mzda na slovensku takmer 2 nasobne, a kedze vsetko zdrazelo, tak je uplne prirodzene, ze narastli aj ceny v restauracnom sektore. Nikto Ti nekaze jest v restauracii, kludne si var doma, hadam nebudu predavat bez marze, len aby Tebe vyhoveli. Uvedom si, ze zdrazenie jedla je uplne prirodzene, kedze islo vsetko hore, personal, energie, najmy, suroviny atd. Ak im nadavas do zlodejov, tak ty si potom chudak
Najlepšie bryndzové halušky sú buď v Slovak pube alebo vo Vieche na Obchodnej.
panko asi zostal hlboko v minulosti a inflacia mu nic nehovori... rovnako ako cena prenajmu priestorov a cena prace personalu v turisticky exponovanom mieste.
WOW most of that food was Hungarian, except for the Czech dumplings.... Halusky also called Haluska or Galuska is very Hungarian. The difference is in the cheese. Sheep vs cow. You do know that Slovakia did not exist before 1993 and was Hungary from about 950-1920 correct? Most of the so-called Slovak foods are actually Hungarian in origin. Just ask a Hungarian or take a trip to Budapest.
Thanks for the history lesson. 👍 But, what do you suggest, I should travel around the world and confront people about their own food, telling them: "Listen this is not your food this is your neighbors food." My travel vlogging wouldn't last long for sure! 😅😂🤣 Probably everywhere in the world neighboring countries share same or similar food, that is normal and expected. If you ask me Slovakia and its people deserved every bit of their land and their freedom! Cheers to Slovakia! 🍻
Dave you are wrong. Halusky made of potato and garlic with ship cheese and slanina on the top is totally Slovak. Its confirmed by the Court as origin. Slovakia has lot of mountains with ships. Hungary has no mountains these level so they changed halusky: instead of potates they put grain an cow cheese, of course what they had. Slovakia existed also before Second World War (very huge and rich industry) you should check facts. During Second World War Slovakia was badly forced by strong power to be on Germans side with Italians. In 1918 was part od Czechoslovakia federation and Chech and Slovak are nation brothers, some believe Czechoslovakia still exists. Before 1918 was a part of 42 nationalieties from central Europe and Balcan in one Austrian Empire for 1 000 years with the capital in Vienna. My grandfather born 1912 had a birth certificate in german oficial Empire language. In 5th century Hungarian, so called hunies came from Asia (typical hungarian language) and our Slovak king Pribina allowed them to settle down. Mostly men came on horses and never come back to Asia. They had Slovak wifes, that cook. Hungarians are Slovaks with little Asia mix, if you go to very 5th century.
@@marcelasotakova637 Ship cheese? There are no ships in Slovakia but brindza cheese is the Slovak version. As the Slovaks did not live outside of the mountains for the most part, they raised sheep. And what court said it is Slovak in origin? The EU? Or some court in Michalovce? Galuska/Haluska is probably some original food (potatoes did not get to Hungary until 1600s) and each side made it a bit differently.
@@daverichards308 Yes, in english its sheep cheese, there is no such word in english like bryndza. Yes, EU Court, they have list of food origin for all EU countries.
@@marcelasotakova637 Dave said it was Hungarian until 1920, not until1945. and that is correct because of the after WW1 treaties in PAris.
Halušky really cant be compare with that czech rubish meal😂 cause they are 100000000000 times better.i know everyone likes something different😉
Halušky sú ľudové jedlo a sviečková je už sviatočné, tak nečudo že mu viac chutila Sviečková na smotane, ja by som si tiež dal radšej halušky, ale na halušky mu treba ísť na Liptov niekde na Kolibu a nie do Bratislavy.
