"There’s much to love about Kro’s perfect rotisserie chickens, especially since the kitchen team finds a multitude of ways to utilize the flavorful, juicy meat: filling sandwiches, Waldorf salads topped with pulled chicken, a spin on chicken paprikash with grilled pepper sauce and roasted potatoes (an absolute must-order). This is the kind of spot you want to visit more than once to try all that it has to offer. Kro has expanded to Karlin as well, and both locations offer a nice mix of beer, wine, and cocktails to go along with the birds." - Dan Clapson
"Vojtěch Václavík clocked hours at Copenhagen’s lauded Manfreds and Baest before returning home to open Kro Kitchen in April. He hired architectural firm Neuhäusl Hunal to get the most out of a humble, 130-square-foot, antique book shop in the city’s Žižkov district. The team transformed the space into a hip, minimalist venue decorated in slate gray, black, and white, with a lightning bolt shooting across the ceiling. The snug, 15-seat bistro is centered around affordably priced, rotisserie-style proteins and seasonal veggies (around 175 korunas, or $7.50 and up). While the menu may seem straightforward at first, with items like rotisserie chicken, pulled pork knuckle, and caramelized cabbage, KRO is actually a rather cheffy affair. Václavík sources the best local produce, cooks with sous vide, and incorporates fermentation throughout the menu with options like cabbage and leek kimchi, or fermented chile-and-onion dry rub on rotisserie chicken. There’s even an in-house sommelier who may suggest pairing dishes with natural Czech wines or an excellent local cider like Cidrerie Kliment." - Kat Odell
