The Fry Bread House

The Fry Bread House is a restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona, serving Indian fry bread, a Native American staple made from white flour, baking powder, salt and lard or Crisco.[1] The ingredients reflect the commodities doled out on the reservations by the U.S. federal government.[1][2]

The Fry Bread House, which opened in 1992, is owned by Cecilia Miller, a member of the Tohono O'odham Nation of Native Americans.[3][4] In 2012, it was recognized by the James Beard Foundation as an American Classic.[3][5] The restaurant is one of only five restaurants, and the first Native American restaurant, in the United States to win the 2012 James Beard American Classics award.[2][6]
