Dana Šťastná already helped to cook as a little girl. She inherited the cookbook “Standards of Hot Meals” from her mother and has been using it since and her father supplied them with a game and fish as an enthusiastic hunter and fisherman. Later Dana started to cook healthily and with love for her family. As a funny story about her home cooking, she remembers a question of her two sons when she called them to eat: „Mom, will it be good or healthy?“
She has always intuitively realized the huge impact of food on our health and well-being. She studied agricultural economics and at the same time teaching. She started as a teacher at the Integrated Secondary School, which was focused mainly on public catering and later as a representative for professional practice of students.
In 2005 Dana Šťastná became independent and focused mainly on projects with the aim of obtaining funds from the EU intended for education and employment of people. During this time, she also studied at the School of Natural Treatment of Dr Soňa Hájková, which greatly influenced her and moved to a higher level of her thinking about healthy dining.
In 2009, she applied for financial support for the newly founded social enterprise Kruh zdraví, and the alternative dining room was officially opened on 1st May 2011. The Kruh zdraví represents not only healthy food but also healthy relationships at work and healthy communication inside and out-side the business. They organize workshops, tastings and seminars for the public, where they try to pass on cooking and baking experience. You have to try the Rye sourdough bread with the Iron Mountains regional product certification and do not forget about the whole-wheat strudel, which was certified in 2021 and the novelty rye gingerbread strudel since spring 2024.
The aim of the Circle of Health is balanced, healthy, seasonal and tasty local production enjoyed in calm and happy environment.
