Synagogue set in the Jewish Quarter. The walls are marked in 1cm high writing with the names of all the local Holocaust victims. The walls are covered. It is a sobering, astonishing thing to witness. Sounds morose but I can't see any point to visiting Prague without seeing this.
Jewish quarter
If you're staying at the Hotel Diplomat, this is within walking distance.
Restaurant:
2 large shark steaks, with cream+onion potatoes
4 x 0.5L + 0.2L beer
1 shot of something vodka-ish
1 garlic bread
1 mineral water

Very nice, low lighting, high ceilings (to get away from the endemic cigarette smoke) open hearth and 1/4 of the price of the tourist zone.
