Thank you, Karen! Your drive to San Antonio sounds like when Brandon saw a sign for sweet tea and boiled peanuts while we were living in Southern California. He gave a shout and pulled a hard turn. I didn’t know what had happened! The Southern boy was just missing real sweet tea.

I have been addicted to them since I was 10 years old and my oldest brother married a Czech girl from Michigan. She and her mother and grandmother made dozens and dozens for the wedding reception and I was the taste tester! The poppy seed was my favorite too.
Then, many years later, we moved to Ft. Worth and on our first trip to San Antonio we drove through West. I saw the billboard outside of town and yelled at Rick, my hubby, ‘take this exit”. Silly guy thought I needed an emergency bathroom break. Little did he know about my long delayed desire for a kolache. So, he and the kids were introduced to this delicious treat. By the way, I have no use for the savory ones. Apricot, peach, poppy seed and cream cheese are the only way to go. Next time in the area we will be stopping in West, even if it is not one out planned route! And I think I might try the chocolate ones this time! Love your blog. Escapees hugs, Karen

I’m sorry we didn’t get the post up earlier, so you could have tried the Village Bakery. You may not be a kolache guy in general, but I do believe they are better there.

Having just had a kolache in West on the way to Fort Worth this past weekend. We stopped at the Czech Stop and I was severely disappointed in the kolache. I hope the Village Bakery was better. Let’s just say that I won’t be stopping to get another the next time through town. Just saying! 🙂
