Little Caesar's is to pizza what George Bush was to presidents. |

Well, it's all relative, Paul. Would i go to Little Ceasars if i was in Manhattan or Chicago? Not a chance. Here in Prague, most pizza is pretty awful. The crust is made like cracker dough (and tastes like it).
And I should say - that the above is not *entirely* true. The pizza at Ambiente's Pizza Nuova is fantastic but going there is a more involved adventure than a quick bite.
What's your favorite here? |

Jeff, I'll tell ya... I lived in Manhattan, NYC for close to 20 years. NYC is known for great pizza, among many other things.
The pizza that was considered year after year to be one of the best is John's of Bleeker Street. Actually, if you add in their Times Square branch, they are usually 2 of the Top 7. The pizza is from a coal fired brick over and is baked at about 800 degrees F. The crust is quite thin and crackery, slightly charred along the edges. It's fantastic.
I find quite a few Prague pizzerias make excellent pizza, but if you are looking for the thick-crust Chicago / Sicilian style, that's a different ballgame. You don't find it here. Unless you go to "Uno", but that's a place that no self-respecting NYer would be caught dead in (Chicago style, ugh). But, as to my favorites, I like my neighborhood pie XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (deleted by author), near Strossmayerovo Namesti and in the center I'm still very fond of Kmotra.
But, Little Caesars? Useful for lining birdcages and cat boxes, but definitely not edible. |

I've never met a pizza that ham and pineapple wouldn't drastically improve.
Hammy-P!

Yeah, i miss NY slices. For thick crust i liked Ben's in Soho. But that was also a proximity call - was just around the corner at the time..
Flamenco? Hunh, I was there a couple years ago but seemed nothing special. My favorite Letna spot is Capri, but lately has been hit or miss. IT depends which pizza chef is working. |

Ok... I'm officially withdrawing my compliment to Flamenco pizza... was just there and was served the worst pizza I've ever seen in Prague. Had to send it back twice... finally just gave up and left.
At this point I give it an "avoid like the plague" rating. |

This city knows nothing about food business.
NOTHING. :@
First Dunkin Donuts got shut down.
A while later, Pizza Hut.
NOW LIL CAESERS...wtfff???
Seriously Prague. Try keeping UP with what customers WANT.
Don't get me wrong, they have few other good pizza places... but come on, give us some VARIETY!!!
It's all EXCACTLY the same: thin crust/no cheese Italian pizza!!
Would it kill them to keep some of the popular AMERICAN STYLE foods up?! Other than KFC/Mc Donalds... jeesh. |

Would it kill WHO(?) to "keep some of the popular AMERICAN STYLE foods up"? Is there some "junk food board of directors" that we aren't aware of? The last time I looked, Americans in Prague were a small minority of the population. Why would you expect American foods to take a priority?
You write as if the Prague government closed these places. Dunkin Donuts pulled out of Prague and several other areas of Europe. Pizza Hut never had any presence here beyond a couple of "Express" locations, and Little Caesars is a franchise operation. If you feel so strongly about it, buy a franchise and open your own pizza spot.
In the meantime, if you want American foods, move to the States. |
