La Perla de Karlin
Prague, Czech Republic
The read// why locals go
La Perla de Karlin puts a working Spanish kitchen on Šaldova in Karlín, with a menu built by a Spanish head chef around paella and tapas. The tapas selection changes every week, cooked with ingredients brought in from Spain rather than adapted to local habit. The room follows the same logic: sixty seats spread over two levels, plus standing space at a bar counter arranged around wine barrels in the way a Spanish tavern would do it. There is a terrace when the weather allows, and mains land around 272 CZK à la carte. Five independent local sources point here, which in a district as fast-changing as Karlín counts for something.
