My first vegan journey

I decided to become a vegan after my 29 birthday party. Right after that I traveled with my friends to Prague. It was a terrible journey and not just because there was almost nothing to eat there, but also because friends I traveled with were not aware of my demanding diet. I made a big mistake trying to explain to them why I chose “to suffer” (from their point of view). The better way would’ve been share the basics of my diet making it much easier to choose the place that serves food that suits all of us.

My friend’s culinary interests were totally opposed to  mine. One of the most  popular Czech specialties is pork knee (vep?ové koleno). My friends spent a lot of time in order to find the best place that serves the most distinguished pork knee… 

Almost from the beginning, I gave up finding the right dish for me in the same restaurants. I was mostly satisfied with cabbage – the white pickled cabbage and the red pickled cabbage…
