There is nothing more exciting than seeing in a good movie the places you have been. The passions and experiences of the characters become somehow closer, and again nostalgia languishes for the streets and lanes where the plot of the film unfolds. Therefore, many viewers, after watching the wonderful film by Giuseppe Tornatore "The Best Offer", were knocked off their feet, trying to find the Night and Day restaurant in the Czech capital. Prague is rich in many sights, but there are no Kozi streets in it. Reviews speak quite confidently about this.
Searching for a cinema establishment
Many tourists tried to find the restaurant "Day and Night", following the route of the protagonist. So, Virgil Oldman rents an apartment next to the Old Town Hall. A wonderful view of the Orloi clock opens from the window of the room. Going for a walk around the city, Oldman crosses the town hall square and delves into weavingstreets of the Jewish quarter. There should be a restaurant, whose entrance in the film is decorated with two dials. Reviews assure that the search was successful.
Disappointment from the find
The thing you were looking for was found not on the fictional street of Cozi, but on the real At the merciful ones. It is called so because of the hospital for the poor at the monastery of St. Agnes. Near Francis Street. However, the beer "At the Merciful" (Pivnice U Milosrdnych) bears little resemblance to the restaurant "Night and Day". Prague likes to play such a joke with tourists. In the cinema, the entire interior of the establishment is filled with ticking clocks. Some of them were with moving mechanisms - like in Orloi. But the reviews do not mention any of these in the interior of the pub "At the Merciful".
Disappointment turns to admiration
But do not rush to leave the failed restaurant "Night and Day". Prague is famous for its gastronomic attractions. People go to this city specifically to taste pork knuckle, Christmas carp, trout, strudel and drink excellent beer. Ask the waiter for yidelnichek and pitnichek (menu and wine list). By the way, these books are also duplicated in English, German and Russian. You won't have to wait long. If you visit the pub "At the Merciful" from 11:00 to 16:00, you can choose your favorite dish from the section Hotova jidla (ready meals).
While your shank or carp is baking in the kitchen, sit down somewhere with a cup of espresso at the Merciful Pub. In winter - atblazing fireplace, in summer - on the terrace. Gradually, you will stop regretting that this is not the Night and Day restaurant. Prague knows how to pour balm on wounds… Guest reviews sing odes to steamy glasses of keg beer (unfiltered Gambrinus 12 is especially praised), steaks and bone-in cutlets. The waiters, whose overweight is eloquent evidence of how nutritious Czech cuisine is and how difficult it is to abstain from it, will recommend you which dish is especially good at this time of the year.
Alarm message
Starting from August 2013, the pub "At the Merciful" (or "Day and Night" - a restaurant) reviews called closed. What happened? They say that the institution is undergoing a large-scale reconstruction. The premises were taken on a grand scale, and the matter, most likely, will not do with cosmetic repairs. There is an opinion that after the success of the film "The Best Offer", the interiors of the newly opened establishment will really resemble the "Day and Night" that seduced everyone.
