Kolache Heaven
West, Texas is a small town of around 2,800 that has recently made international headlines due to the fertilizer plant explosion this past April. With such an extreme event shaking the small town to its foundation, visiting the Czech Stop in West was a hope filled trip that showed the strength and perseverance of the town.
Three months after the blast, the Czech Stop was as busy as ever, with lines spanning the width of the store, and with friendly staff serving some of the best pastries this great state has to offer. People from all around Texas, and even from other states, stop in West specifically for the goods that the Czech Stop has to offer. With kolaches to die for, ranging from sweet to savory, and other decadent treats such as pies, and even peanut brittle, this is a stop you must make if you drive past West on the highway. After you stop here, a trip to your local doughnut shop will seem like taking a spin on the teacups after you've ridden the largest roller coaster in the park. There really is nothing like it, and it just adds to the charm of the place that you can top off on gas while you get your treats. It's a true Texas landmark, and it's in a town that is even more amazing than its pastries.
Tasty Tuesdays!
