Schnitzel in Czech “Řízek” has its origins in German cuisine, but it has significant position in Czech cuisine. Covered in “Trojobal” or breading if you want it’s made from all kinds of meat, but mainly chicken and pork are used.  You can easily recognize a Czech on a trip, because he has a few schnitzels in his backpack, which is often a point of mockery.
