Henderson shop
Victor Lee wants to bring Texas-style doughnuts and kolaches to the desert, and his first stop is Henderson.
Lee, owner of KD’s Donuts and Kolaches, opened the breakfast shop last week at 4650 E. Sunset Road.
Kolaches, found in most Texas doughnut shops, are puffy croissant rolls filled with small sausages, bacon, jalapenos, ham or cheese.
The Korean immigrant had success as a baker in his family’s doughnut shop in Grand Prairie, Texas, but moved to the valley because the Texas doughnut market was saturated.
He found Henderson the perfect location for an early-bird doughnut store — open at 5 a.m.
“Texas has a lot of original recipes like kolaches,” Lee said. “Most of the doughnut shops in Las Vegas are California-style.”
Lee said his most popular doughnut, cinnamon glaze cakes, is new to most of his customers.
Doughnut prices range from 79 cents for glazed donuts to $1.35 for a cinnamon roll or apple fritter. Kolaches are $1.09 to $2.49 and $10.90 to $24.99 for a dozen.
KD Donuts and Kolaches is open from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
I love kolaches.
You can call them Kolaches if you want to but that ain't a real kolache!
I agree with pmmart. The word "kolache" in the Slavic language means pastry, specifically homemade, yeast-rised dough pastry. The hot dog things look like something I would make for a Cub Scout meeting using mini hot dogs and some Pillsbury crescant dough. This is nothing that original.I think that maybe this Korean owner needs to visit some of the EASTERN EUROPEAN countries (specifically Serbia, Slovakia, Czech Republic and other countries like that) where the REAL KOLACKY's are made!!!This is NOT a new concept at all.This Korean owner needs to come to the Northeast where many of the cities are of European heritage (like Pittsburgh,Cleveland, and some cities in New Jersey).
Went in to buy kolaches. Left without purchasing anything, as those are not kolaches.
lmao...true, not a traditional kolache, but probably every bit as "healthy" as one!
If it tastes good, who gives a crap that it's not a "real" kolache?
