The cheese is EDAM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edam_%28cheese%29
Very mild hard cheese similar to Chedar.
What is used for deep frying is NOT the aged variant of Edam (Eidam in Czech)
You soak the cheese in milk. Then you cover it with flour, dip into egg and cover with breadcrumbs. You can repeat the egg and breadcrumbs to get thicker crust.
Then you fry it quickly in a very hot oil.
Serve with Chips (that are called French fries in USA) and mayonnaise.
You can get it in any Czech restaurant and it used to be one of the most frequently ordered meal. (I say used to be, because I do not know what the situation is now)

I've never tried this with Edam, but I do make it exactly the same way with Camembert (soft cheese). It's very good, usually serve it with French bread and caremelised onions or cranberry sauce.
