Houston: Boudin Kolaches at Shipley Do-nuts
This is new to me on a couple different levels. First, I grew up eating sweet kolaches made by my Slovakian grandmother, and the concept of savory ones, as done in Texas—well, I'm still wrapping my head around that.
Second, wow. Boudin kolache. That sounds kind of awesome. Glad to see that Robb Walsh, who brought this thing to light, is out and about and back on top of his game after his swine-flu-induced quarantine.

Sounds awesome. (BTW, not to be pedantic, but I think "Slovak" sounds better than "Slovakian.")

Nothing is better for a hangover than Kolaches and there are so many better places to find one than Shipley's

How weird, I grew up eating only savory kolaches...well, I am from Texas, so go figure.

I too grew up eating savory kolaches (and cream cheese kolaches!) in central Texas, but hadn't had one in over 15 years since moving to Denver. So when I happened to drive by a place called Kolache Factory here in Denver (http://www.kolachefactory.com/), I immediately pulled in. It was, perhaps, the most satisfying meal I'd ever eaten. The satisfaction of a 15 year craving is incomparable.
