Penzion Zikmundov in Staré Hutě is an exceptional place and experience where you can truly indulge in the best Czech cuisine with a modern twist. The harmonious design of the place, where their own cows graze behind the fence, adds to the peace and quiet. The Chef works with meat from their own breeding, vegetables, and herbs, including tea, which is picked in the meadows and dried over the winter. This is a restaurant in a guesthouse, where you cannot choose from the menu or ask for anything outside of the prepared menu. You will be served what is prepared for the guests staying at the guesthouse. However, there is always a soup, a main course, and a dessert. All dishes have harmonious flavor combinations, so that each ingredient melts in your mouth and you will think about everything for a long time. The soup – potato cream, sour cream, truffle oil, roasted bacon, dill, and celery – offered creamy and balanced perfection. The main course of beef and potatoes melted in the mouth and no cutlery was needed; the meat was so tender that it almost fell apart on its own, and the quality of the homemade ingredients was evident in every bite. The panna cotta with fruit rounded off this explosion of flavors with a delicate taste and texture. The staff is professional, perhaps a little familiar for some, but always ready to take care of you. The wine list is excellent, featuring top foreign and domestic wines, bottles and glasses, as well as sparkling wines, which are poured into their own glasses, made in their own glassworks three meters from the guesthouse. Zikmundov is exactly what you want if you are going to the Buchlov Hills and are looking for a place where you will be taken care of with the utmost care in a luxurious designer environment with fantastic cuisine and beautiful countryside surrounding the entire guesthouse, which is ruled by the singing of swallows and the scent of meadows.
