Overview
Malý Buddha is a quiet, specialized oriental tearoom and restaurant located on Úvoz in the Hradčany neighborhood, just steps away from the bustling atmosphere of Prague Castle. Run by Chris Nguyen, the establishment is deeply committed to serving traditional temple-style food and premium oriental teas. The menu is crafted around healthy, natural ingredients, focusing on simple but flavorful preparations that honor the origins of temple cuisine. Because the space is designed to be a sanctuary, the environment is intentionally calm and reflective, making it a perfect spot for guests looking to escape the intensity of Prague's central tourist areas. In addition to regular dining, the establishment now hosts cooking courses that invite guests to gain a deeper understanding of these specific culinary traditions, though guests should be sure to bring cash as the restaurant does not accept card payments.
