Prague is a beautiful city and they were generally friendly to me and didn't mind speaking English. Some don't and sign language helped when I traveled. But they knew I was a tourist (I was a brown Indian guy who is not exactly the type there ;)). One thing I found surprising for being an European city is how hard it is to find any kind of food past 9 PM. Maybe I picked a neighborhood like that to stay? Also, stores didn't bother following any sort of schedule :). Overall,I'd love to live in Prague and experience more of what the city has to offer. And the train ride from Germany to Prague is so awesome!

A lot of European cities don't have anything or close to anything open at night. But it varies wildly by country.
Try finding a restaurant in the Netherlands past 9PM. Past 0100 it gets nigh impossible until the next morning 8-9am (6am if you only want a banana or cookie from a train station).

I take it it's different in India?

Really? This is a gross generalization, but in any large US city there are places open 24/7 for the most part.
Travelling there next week, anything you would recommend?
