"We love a good mashup (we're not mad at this Nine Inch Nails vs. Carly Rae Jepsen one), so why not throw a Tennessee culinary tradition into a Texas one and see what happens? For the month of Feb, beloved hot chicken purveyor Hattie B’s has teamed up with Brooklyn Kolache to fill one of their Czech-style breakfast pastries with cayenne-covered chicken, pork sausage, and spicy sauce. A portion of each sale will be donated to The Giving Kitchen in Nashville and Brooklyn's The Campaign Against Hunger." - neha talreja

"At the Dekalb Avenue location of Brooklyn Kolache, owner Autumn Stanford says the monthly electricity bill roughly doubled from the usual $400–$500 to $900 in January; she owns two Kolache locations and worries the sudden increase — and similar hits at her other businesses — makes winter budgeting unpredictable and could hurt employees’ livelihoods and customers’ willingness to spend on dining out." - Emma Orlow

"This month Brooklyn Kolache is selling Hattie B’s hot chicken–stuffed kolaches at both its Bed-Stuy and West Village locations, and according to its Instagram post 10 percent of proceeds from the collaboration will be split between the food security organizations Campaign Against Hunger and Giving Kitchen." - Emma Orlow

"Autumn Stanford has been serving these perfectly-chewy, Czech-Texas pastries out of her Bed-Stuy storefront since 2012. Now, with a second location in Manhattan, more New Yorkers than ever can enjoy her treats. Pair your morning caffeine (there are regular espresso machine drinks as well as a snickerdoodle latte), with some of the city’s top carbohydrates. Kolaches here span sweet to savory, offered in flavors like blueberry sweet cheese; jalapeno, egg, and cheese; pimento cheese; mushroom and goat cheese; and Texas beef sausage." - Emma Orlow


"Teaming up this week with Emily Pizza, Brooklyn Kolache is offering a kolache made with pepperoni, pickled chile, honey, tomato sauce, and mozzarella cheese, according to a spokesperson for the restaurants." - Luke Fortney
