About the Founder

Christian Szabo

Owner

I’m founder of Local Food Tour Prague and have been presenting Prague cuisine to people from all over the world since 2017. I also started Czech Food Evolution project that tracks down over 1000 years of our cuisine’s development. Cuisine is a great way to understand our past because every meal has its background story. It’s often thrilling to find out how some foods evolved over time. So the question is: what have been typical flavors and ingredients considered Czech for centuries? Which of them survived the test of time? And which have been replaced by more modern ones? How to tell a local meal from a touristy one? Did Czechs start any culinary inventions? How did potatoes get to Europe? Etc.

I am also a traveler who knows that nothing connects you to a place like local meals. Seafood paella served with love by Spanish mom in the picturesque village of Herrera. Fresh mussels with herbs and local cider in the beautiful Basque town of San Sebastian. Roast beef sandwich with my dad enjoyed in the rainy countryside of Yorkshire. Flintstone-like steak served on a driveway restaurant near New Jersey. Fish soup with loads of paprika in Budapest with my best friends. Shot of Scotch whiskey at a rock bar in Edinburgh… All of these experiences inspired me to start a food tour in Prague and share our heritage with you! Finally, as a local, I feel responsibility to offer an alternative to all the ‘hop on hop offs’ and ‘beer bikes’ by providing this exclusive food and history tour.
