culinary excellence: 5

there was one restaurant listed on the cesky krumlov page at happy cow, but it was not in the town center and luca was concerned it would take too much time to walk there and back. so of course we spent twice the amount of time that would have taken to find a veg-friendly place nearby. ultimately we decided on this cute pizza place with outdoor seating, since the waitress told us they could do a cheeseless vegetable pizza. luca sipped his spectacular passion fruit mojito while we waited and i sipped my imaginary guava colada:




after a long while, the waitress brought out our pizza, but it was covered in cheese. she realized this as soon as she set it down and it was another 10 minutes before she brought it back, sans fromage. it seemed like they just took the cheese off, since there were still little traces of it, but for me that was preferable to wasting the whole thing. anyway, the corrected pizza was pretty good. it certainly could have had more seasonings and a few cloves of roasted garlic, but the assortment of vegetables - broccoli, corn, spinach, mushrooms, onions and peppers - worked nicely. the crust was soft and tasty.



just make sure you have some cash, as don pietro does not accept credit cards.
