# Honest-to-goodness ingredients

from folks we know by name

A burger is only as good as its beef, its bun and everything in between. That’s why we pick our ingredients with care, from suppliers we trust. We’re not in it for the money, we’re in it for a taste you won’t forget.

## A burger lives or dies by the beef

Burgers are the stars of our menu, and they start with beef from **Meatpoint**. We go for aged chuck from along the back, between the neck and the ribeye, with that telltale brick-red color. Made for grinding.

The cattle graze out in the open and eat nothing but haylage the farm grows itself. The beef is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins and trace minerals.

We sear our burgers on a **lava rock grill**, which gives them that smoky kick. And we make everything ourselves, start to finish.

## Buns with a baker’s touch

Every bun is shaped by the baker’s own two hands. It’s made from a Scottish-style yeast dough with natural sourdough starter and milk, then topped with sesame seeds. We toast it in butter so it gets nice and crisp. Looking for something a little healthier? We’ve got a dark bun too.

## Toast from a Great Dane

Our sandwiches are stacked on extra-large slices of sandwich bread from the **Mansson** bakery. The owner is a born-and-bred Dane who’s called Prague home for a good many years, and we fine-tuned the recipe together.

## Fresh from the farm

Our eggs come from **Václav Matoušek** and his family farm in Čerčany. His hens roam cage-free in the barn and eat feed grown right on the farm, so the eggs pack a rich, bold flavor.

We pick our fruit and veggies for premium quality and as fresh as they come. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

## The world’s best marmalade, officially

Our marmalades and jams are cooked up by **Blanka Milfaitová**, a several-time gold medal winner who holds the title of World’s Best Marmalade. We’re the only restaurant on the planet that serves them. Back in the day, she even supplied the Queen of England and Prague Castle.

## Wine from Prague’s biggest vineyard

Good food calls for good wine. We pour from the **Salabka** vineyard, about 4.5 hectares (11 acres) and the largest in Prague. The vines grow on a southwest-facing slope between Troja and Bohnice, where the location and the soil suit them just right.

The wine is made using methods that go all the way back to the 18th century. The Troja vineyard once supplied the kings of Bohemia, and its motto, “to create a drink worthy of kings,” still holds true today.
