Czech


 
Kürtőskalács, which mean the chimney cake in Hungarian, was originated from Hungary. At first it was sold for celebrations like Easter and Christmas celebrations. As time passed by, it became one of Czech’s traditional desserts. They made dough into roll on the crowbar, slowly baking it, put sugar, walnut, and cinnamon mix onto it. Because they made the cake after you ordered it, I waited for a long time. But the chimney cake is worth waiting. It was certainly tasty, crunchy, and full of a sweet smell.


 
I thought Czech’s buildings were unique due to the pediment, specifically in Telc, a small town in Czech, listed as one of the World Heritage. So fascinating was Telc that I would never forget the excellent scenes there. Each architecture had its own characteristic. I preferred the black building in addition to its color. Most buildings were light color except it. It impressed me a lot because I had never seen constructions of that kind of style before.

  3. When it comes to Czech, I’ll think of classical musician Antonín Dvořák and artist Alphonse Mucha.
    Dvořák's own style has been described as ‘the fullest recreation of a national idiom with that of the symphonic tradition, absorbing folk influences and finding effective ways of using them.’ I like his New World Symphony very much!! Mucha was a Czech Art Nouveau painter and decorative artist, known best for his distinct style. He was known for his special works in various guises with frequent localised tendencies. By the way, your introduction for disserts are so delicious that I always wish I could have a bit :))))
