Mailsi

Mailsi was Prague’s first Pakistani restaurant, and is still one of the city’s best for authentic, home-style curry cuisine. The outside is inconspicuous, and it’s only the qawwali music that guides you into the attractively decorated green and burgundy dining room with its tropical fishtank. Service is courteous and the food delicious, though prices have edged up in recent years – prawn and fish dishes go up to 500Kč. The bhaji is rather plain – just onion and potato thinly sliced, dipped in spiced flour and fried, but very light and crisp – while the murgh dal consists of tender chicken in a cumin-spiced lentil sauce.
