| Our domicile, the famous Alchymist Suite is a unique, elegant
one-bedroom suite with a luxurious, spacious living-room, a fairy-tale bed and
a huge marble bathroom featuring a precious claw-bathtub, placed right in the
middle of the bathroom. A private terrace allows a romantic view of the inner
courtyard. The furnishings resemble a blend of 16th to 19th century, almost
eccentric, and feature sumptuous decorations held in luscious Renaissance Red.
Other suites, some in Royal Blue, include living rooms and intimate dining
areas, some have balconies or terraces with private, little gardens. All
accommodations feature high-speed Internet access and almost all the other
gadgets, nicely hidden but expected by the modern luxury traveler. Some of the
suites and halls feature

| Dear Friends, |

|
|
| Happy Spring! We have returned safely from the
ITB-Berlin in March, a motivating and successful travel and media event that we
have attended for the last four years. As promised, we are now finally able to
share with you our experiences at the fairytale Alchymist Grand Hotel &
Spa, ideally located in the heart of history-packed Prague and only a 5 minutes
walk from the famous Charles Bridge. The Alchymist is a hidden oasis, with its
Ecsotica Spa, dedicated to a person’s wellbeing, rejuvenation and
relaxation. It offers amazing couple’s treatments and exotic bathing
rituals. Style, romance and spa aside, we got to sample the inspiring cuisine
of Executive Chef Tomáš Sysel, whose eclectic interpretations of
Mediterranean fare, pure and instinctive are designed to enliven your senses.
Until next month from another fairytale castle, this time from the Gold Coast
of New York, on Long Island – The Oheka Castle, |

| We have been welcomed back to Aquarius and its fairytale setting just
5 minutes from the Charles Bridge, to sample the cuisine of Executive Chef
Tomáš Sysel. Style and romance aside, we eagerly anticipated Chef
Thomas’s eclectic interpretations of Mediterranean fare, pure and
instinctive yet designed to enliven your senses. To begin with an amuse bouche
of bite sized Hors d'œuvres arrived at the table while we perused an
incredible 19 selections on the water menu, which included several local waters
from Czech Republic. It felt a little like ordering off an extensive wine list,
but we were guided along the way to our selection of Ty Nant from the deep
aquifers of Wales. House made focaccia, ciabatta, baguettes and black bread
offered ample choices besides tasting warm and fresh.

| A Terrine of Duck Foie Gras with fresh figs was a delightful treat,
which through caramelization sweetened the fruit sufficiently to underscore the
appetizer. A bottle of Chateau Carmes de Rieussece Sauternes 2002, produced a
blizzard of golden nectar over the palate further drawing attention to the foie
gras. Next was a Tepid Lobster Salad with grilled vegetables, although artfully
arranged proved moderately chewy. Hoping to rescue the moment, we resorted to a
locally produced Grüner Veltliner, Mikrosvin Mikulov, Dolni Dunajovice,
Late Harvest 2006, smoothing the rough edges. We moved to a very tasty John
Dory with Fresh Spinach, Asparagus and Sauce of Mussels. The prized white firm
meat of the John Dory sat amidst sprinkles of little red Salmon caviar,
asparagus and the sautéed spinach that had a ‘just picked’
flavor. Sommelier Jakub suggested a Chardonnay Clos Mathilde, Domaine J.
Prieur, 2005, contributing a restrained character of crisp citrus with a touch
of minerality.
