Jarošek Slivovice
The bad news coming out of the store this week is that the distillery of Vladislav Jarošek has halted production of it's various brandies for the time being and will not be supplying it's store (over here) with any new product until such time as they decide if it's worth it.
I managed to pick up a huge bottle of Slivovice and the last bottle of Jalovcova (a fantastic, old-style Gin of pure, distilled, Juniper berries). Run over there now while supplies last.

Italian Deli, Casa Del Parmigiano

Another Italian deli, in pretty much the same neighborhood as the other one, is just around the corner across the street from the park at Ural and next to Cafe Orange. It used to be run by the folks at this deli, but changed ownership sometime last year when Little Italy opened up.
The Italian guy is very nice and very friendly and his shop is small, but offers a very nice selection of Italian wines, vinegars, a little oil, and a good basic set of cheeses and salamis. Also, they probably have the nicest coffee of any of the places in this neighborhood. Their English is non-existant and their Czech is minimal, but the service and the food is great.
From the info on their business card they also seem to have a place in Prague 3 at : Vlkova 22, Žižkov.

In much the same way as I’ve tried to find and map places to sit down, plug in and do some free wi-fi surfing, I’m going to start adding maps, pictures and info about unique places to shop here in Prague, primarily places that sell food and ingredients which are hard to find.
Look for them coming soon. (Hey, Scribbler is ok but I could do more, no?)
Lastly, I’m going to include some simple shots of the facades of these buildings, nothing more. The pictures are meant just as a reference for when you are walking towards or near the places mentioned, nothing more.
