    Ill just give you some info : Czech and Slovak food are so similar because we are basically brother nations . We were one state for quite a while and we still consider ourselves brothers (until hockey world championship , that times shit gets serious) , 4:23 : Bryndzové halušky are served in Czech as well but this is clearly Slovak food . I cant tell about other food that you ate but i know that bryndzové halušky are Slovak , they are also Slovak national food :) . If you plan on trying taking trip through Slovakia again (since your last one didnt appeared as successful) i would suggest that you search on internet when the Spiš castle is open , go see Košice , travel through Tatras , visit some national parks . Go to caves like Demänovská ľadová jaskyňa and Demänovská jaskyňa slobody , much things to see in Sk that i would love to see your reaction to :)

      Hi there! I am a Slovak so I can explain you some things. The dough is called halušky (not bryndzové halušky) and it is green because one of the main ingredients is spinach. I think I heard the waitress telling you something about the "špenátové halušky" ad that's it - the spinach dough called halušky. If you want to know anything about Slovakia do not hesitate to contact me.

    • @salamista

      While bryndzové halušky might be the national food of Slovakia they are heavily influenced by the immigrants from Romania who brought this cousine with them.

    Well, Slovakia and the Czech republic are very similar, not only in cuisine, but also in language and behavior. From 1918 to 1993 we were one country called Czechoslovakia. (note this Americans in your maps :D) There are differences though... I would say that Czechs really build their traditional cuisine mainly on pork meat, sauces (or goulashes), a little bit of cabbage here and there, knedlíky (dumplings) of all sorts (with fruit, salty, with bacon, potato dumplings etc.), and of course our famous czech beer. During our holidays we make also a lot of sweet pastry (vánočka, koláče). We also like fried things (schnitzel, cheese) and all sorts of pickled stuff (cucumbers, fish, sausages, mushrooms etc.). It's kinda important to mention the mushrooms as well. We czechs (especially older people) just go into the forest and pick all sorts of mushrooms and make ALL sorts of stuff with them (fry, dry, crush, jar them... :D), it is called ''houbaření'' (only the picking) and slovaks, i think, do it as well, maybe not in such hardcore scales. The main difference is, i would say, that Slovak food tradition is based on the Slovakian mountanious terrain and their a little bit different temperament (not meant badly, they are just tougher than us czechs i would say :D). So they do not drink so much beer (they like getting wasted by the ''Tatran tea'' or ''borovička'', their food is more nutritious (not necessarily healthier) to kinda ''survive'' the winter in the mountains and hills (but again, not necessarily, i don't want to set any kind of stereotype here). The little doughy things you've eaten in this video are called ''halušky'' and those are very famous in Slovakia, the most typical way of eating them is with a sheep cheese ''bryndza'' and little bit of fried bacon (or just pork fat) on the top. They also like cabbage quite a lot, and of course meat, the pastry is also very similar (if not the same) to the czech. So to sum this up, the cuisines are not the same, just similar. Btw, when it comes to the fried cheese, it's really neither slovak, nor czech national food, it's hard to describe, but i personally don't see it as a part of our cultures and most of the famous chefs and cooks in our countries see it the same way as i do, it's more of a comfortable food that you make when you are not in the mood to make something really delicious or a ''hard to make'' food. I would also mention that the czech taste test video you have made is not that accurate about our cuisine (for example, we do not eat the little doughy things, as you call them :D, that much and the fried cheese of course...), it depends on the place you bump into. The czech national dishes are, in my opinion: Vepřo, knedlo, zelo (Pork with boiled sweet cabbage and these soft dumplings), Svíčková (Beef in a sauce made of cream and some vegetable like carrots etc. with again, the soft dumplings. :D (soggy as you call them)), than i would recommend trying the sweet pies (koláče) i have mentioned before and maybe our quite famous moravian pickles and pickled sausages with onion (utopenci). There are so many things to mention, but i would have to write an essay on that, so i hope i've been helpful to all of you. Thanks for the video btw!

A říct, že si nejsme vůbec podobní, to asi úplně pravda nebude... Záleží teda jakou oblast zemí porovnáváš, jestli české západní sudety a úplný východ Slovenska, tak to potom asi jiné bude. :D

    I'm actually British but I've had Bryndzove Halusky before. My dad's work buddy was Slovak and one day, he brought his wife over to show us how to make halusky. The wife even brought the Bryndza cheese over from Slovakia. It was delicious, and the leftover Bryndza cheese paired really nicely with toast because to me, it has a flavor very reminiscent of buttered popcorn.

    First of all, it's Slovak, not Slovakian I believe (I come from Slovakia, I should know, right?) :D and to answer your question about the differences between Czech and Slovak food, the courses you ordered both in Slovakia and in Czech republic are traditional for both cultures, but that "dough in white sauce" is our national food and the best way to describe it is perhaps gnocchi with sheep cheese and in this case, it was served with leek and bacon. And to briefly describe our very national cuisine, it is floury, quite heavy and greasy and it also uses a lot of potatoes, but to be honest, we don't cook these types of meals at home regularly and we do keep up with the culinary progress. :D Hope it helped!

    The green thing on your plate is called, "spenatove halusky," i think, that's what the waitress said. It's potato dumplings with spinach, therefore the green color. What you've referred to as soggy bread, are actually steamed dumplings. We Slovaks call it knedla. OK, your other dish, with the "white sauce" is actually sheep cheese. It's rich and salty cheese, which nicely compliments the potato dumplings. It's exclusively the Slovak national dish. They top it with fried bacon, and put the spring onions around, but that is optional.
    Iwas impressed, that you placed your order in Slovak language. Thank you for visiting Slovakia, my native country. I live in the US for quite a while now. God bless!

    Everything in Slovak cuisine is more regional than national. Fried cheese can be found in both Czechia and Austria, while the cheese on the dumplings called bryndza is considered typical Slovak, but is also found in Poland. The game goulash you ate is all over the place as well.

    • @k4r7o
      @k4r7o Před 7 lety +1

      The chese (Bryndza) is also popular in Germany. It calls Brimsen and is originally from Romania.
      You should try Slovakian Liptaue, it is a cheese bread / sandwich dip that is made with Bryndza.

With some of my slovak friends we like hungarian bands and going to concerts. And we love your food omg..gulyás, almás pite... I know that our history is little bit confusing and tense, and both of us were learning shitty stupid stuff about each other, but not everything what you hear in school,what you are watching at TV and hear from politics and even from older people is true. Because some people can be really rude, too proud of nothing and lazy to thing. Even in Slovakia even in Hungary and anywhere in the world. It isn't about being slovak or hungarian or anything. Is about being respectful,kind as possible,logical and curious. So go, see the Tatras it's beautiful. You may meet rude people but that's life... not everybody is like this believe me. :P :)

    @PeterMikula Před 7 lety

    I am not sure if someone previously mentioned it, but the "green dough" - kind of plain dumplings (we call it "halušky" [halushki]), are green because of spinach mixed in dough. Usually, they do not come green, but often with sheep cheese and roasted bacon as in your other dish.
    Czech and Slovak cousine are very similar, because of our common history (Upto 1993 we were one state called Czechoslovakia) but halušky are more common for Slovakia. On the other hand, Czechs are famous for svíčková [svi:tchkova:] and guláš s houskovým knedlíkem (goulash with bun dumplings).
    We, in Slovakia, cook most often with potatoes and cabbage.

    If you ever wanted to go to Czech republic again, I would definitely recommend you to try "Vepřo knedlo zelo" - it's pork meat with dumplings and cabbage. But back to Slovakia. The dough was so green, because it was made partly from spinach. And by the way, I think the dish you tried in Slovakia - the dough with white souce and pieces of bacon ("Halušky s brindzou") - is different dish from the one you had in Czech republic ("Strapačky se zelím").

Many turists have visited it because of the legend that is conected with this Abyss. Next is also "Jeskyně Býčí skála. It's close to the abyss, and it's former burial ground where were found gold jewelry, bones, skulls or clay pots.
