Paying for "free things" is an unfortunate habit in many restaurants in The Czech Republic, but it's still practiced today. Here's how it works, you walk into a restaurant, a small band is playing, the waiter puts a basket of bread on the table, followed by a tray of condiments. Itr all sounds good doesn't it? Well wait until you get the bill. On top of the food & drink, it's not uncommon to find you've been charged extra (a LOT extra) for: the bread, the band (even if you got there late and the band was packing up), a "late session" or "Weekend" surcharge and even the tray of condiments (no seriously!). SO never assume ANYTHING is free, check the menu for extra charges and ALWAYS talk to your waiter. If you don't want to pay for a basket of bread or tomato sauce, just say "No thanks". One final tip. Be considerate and learn some basic Czech.

Sadly, all over Prague.
