When traveling between Dallas and Austin, Texas, there are
not many quick places to eat unless you want to stop at the usual fast food
joints. But in West, Texas, a small
community just north of Waco, there is a touristy road stop called Slovacek’s
West. This business caters to the interstate travelers and capitalizes on the
areas Czechoslovakian heritage. Sporting
good clean rest rooms and the usual trinkets for tourists, Slovacek’s West offers
a multitude of choices lf the regions favorite dish, the kolaches. The kolaches are very good and contain a
little more fruit and less cream cheese, as well as the sausage kolaches. They are available in a multitude of fruit
flavors.
But hidden away on the left side of this behemoth is a small
cafeteria style restaurant called the Kissing Pig Cafe. One of the dishes it offers, as any mid-Texas
joint would do, is a beef brisket. This delicious
food is served on a warm bun .and comes with sliced onions and pickles. There is
a choice of vegetables from small buffet to help make up the meat plates. The sandwich is absolute delicious. In addition there are chopped beef, smoke turkey,
ham and pulled pork available. Whereas, in the past we have had to stop at one
of those terrible fast food places between Dallas and Austin, but now for the
foreseeable future, the lunch stop of the day is the Kissing Pig Café located
with Slovacek’s West and the best beef brisket sandwich along interstate 35. Enjoy!
