Kidó - Best Pistachio Ice Cream Ever!

7/31/2015

Pistachio ice cream is unquestionably one of my all-time favorites. So how coincidental is it that I should, unknowingly, be taken to KIDÓ, while in Prague, where their pistachio ice cream is EXCEPTIONAL!

Located in the Letna section of Prague or "Prague 7", this delightful little eatery is quite deceiving from the entrance.  What looks like a small counter joint, is really quite an expansive space that opens up to a lovely outdoor garden and seating area.

Picture
For my excursion with my "travelin' cousin" Tanya and our ex-pat friend/Prague tour guide, Carlos, we popped into Kidó for a little afternoon pick-me-up.  

My friends were in a hot beverage sort of mood, settling on an espresso and cappuccino, while my sweet tooth got the best of me and I went full force for the Pistachio ice cream!!

What could be better on a hot summer day! I was rather tunnel visioned with dessert on my mind when walking in, but as I entered this homey, old school, kitchen-style bistro, I perked up to the full array of prepared food items in the showcase and countertop.

The menu is an array of vegetarian and vegan offerings that include egg dishes, salads, soups, strudel and desserts. This is a good time to mention how impressed I was, while in Prague at the array of eating establishments that cater to the non-meat eating crowd.

Picture
We were greeted by friendly faces eager to serve us!  It is always a pleasure to stumble upon a great eatery like Kidó, where everything is made from the freshest, local ingredients and prepared daily, with a welcoming staff!

In fact, the recipes here come from the loving kitchens of their mothers', which are simple and homemade vegetarian meals "sprinkled with elements of international cuisine" according to their website.

 Their mission is to support local growers, many of which they enjoy personal relationships with and a strong commitment to serve only natural and healthy fare.  And if that is not enough, Kidó also offers catering services, as well as custom cakes and pies. 

The atmosphere is relaxed and soothing, particularly in the lovely outdoor garden.  My little trio enjoyed our afternoon indulgence outside on a lovely summer day, amidst the soothing greenery and foliage.

Delicious Pistachio Ice Cream
So, now for what you've been waiting to hear all about...the pistachio ice cream.  Here are a few words to describe it: delicious, creamy, fresh, nutty, refreshing.  It had the right blend of creaminess and pistachio flavor to put it up there as one of the best I've ever tasted!!

The Espresso was flavorful according to my friend Carlos, and that is why he regularly frequents Kidó.  As for Tanya, being a vegan, she was pleased as punch to be accommodated with a Cappuccino made with soy milk.

Prague is an incredible city with so much to offer, especially when you explore the outer sections beyond the obvious tourist locations such as the Old Town.  Kidó is one of those places worth venturing out to visit.
