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 Crisco. The ingredients reflect the commodities doled out on the reservations by the U.S. federal government.[1] It opened in 1992.

The Fry Bread House is owned by Cecilia Miller. In 2012, it was recognized by the James Beard Foundation as an American Classic.[2] The restaurant is the first Native American eatery to win a James Beard award in the history of the awards (established in 1998).[1]
