...but they are so good.

Last weekend, we wandered to Austin for a visit. Along the way, we got very hungry and stopped at a Chevron gas station on Highway 71. Hruska’s was the name of the food and trinket store attached to the Chevron, and it harbored a surprise: Kolaches.

Not alone in my opinion, these kolaches were fabulous. Freshly made and in many varieties, the bread covered meat (or vegetarian filling) pocket is served hot upon order.

Apparently, kolaches were originally a sweet treat , but they have morphed into a savory meat filled snack in the Austin area. It was hard to find a meat filled recipe, but here is one.

Nice development.
