Fri Jan 09 11:29:26 -0800 2009 13445 Louise 1 4311269 The only place I've seen it in the BA is at community events, street fairs, pow-wows, etc. Fri Jan 09 11:37:02 -0800 2009 4311236 27275 ML8000 1 4311359 i had it once (an indian taco) at the american indian history museum in dc (mitsiam cafe), and although it had its differences, the texture of the bread is similiar to a chalupa at taco bell although im also really interested in where you can find it... if anyone knows let us know Fri Jan 09 11:58:43 -0800 2009 4311236 216903 Aeroshark 1 4311571 I've seen it at the periodic pow-wows that occur at Provo Park and on campus in Berkeley. Never seen at any restaurant. Fri Jan 09 12:57:22 -0800 2009 4311236 13192 chocolatetartguy 1 4311708 Grocery Outlet had a fry bread mix in a bag a while ago. Fri Jan 09 13:31:05 -0800 2009 4311236 17872 sydthekyd 1 4312107 Yeah..powows and american indian events are the place to look. I've had it at indigenous peoples day in berkeley and an american indian event at the berkeley museum of anthropology. Its actually easier to make your own than to look for it.

Here is a link to the bread that was raved about at a NYC foodie convention: http://www.siouxfrybread.com/files/products.htm Fri Jan 09 16:40:35 -0800 2009 4311236 42278 Displaced California Foodie 1 4312361 Yep, at special events. Here's my post on the fry bread I found at Indian Taco Day in Ukiah. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/563819 If you can find somewhere that makes Hungarian langos, it's almost identical (but with some potato starch). Fri Jan 09 17:07:32 -0800 2009 4311236 10039 Melanie Wong 2 4314058 At the risk of hijacking this thread, has anyone seen Hungarian langos anywhere since Paprika's Fono / Big Sky closed? I miss that stuff! Sat Jan 10 11:37:38 -0800 2009 4312361 15807 Steve Green 1 4313912 Strangely, Cheesecake Factory at SF Macy's has a dish with Fried Bread. It's authentic.

Back to 5 Easy Pieces. Hold the Grilled Chicken, Avocado, Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion and Mayonnaise. Sat Jan 10 10:56:34 -0800 2009 4313912 105235 wolfe 1 4316112 I recently found a very simple recipe for it and made it for the first time- It's incredible when fresh and warm. Can't imagine it would be much good packaged, and there are so few ingredients (flour, salt, baking powder, water), a mix doesn't make much sense. Sun Jan 11 10:28:54 -0800 2009 4311236 20957 sweet ginger 1 4319450 if you can hold out til May, you should DEFINITELY go to the Stanford Pow-Wow on the Stanford campus. you'll have your pick of fry bread stands, along with other goodies. it's worth going to even without the food, because there are jewelry and craft sellers, dancers, drum competitions, etc. don't be intimidated just b/c you're not indian, there are TONS of bilagonas (navajo for white people) there! the common ways that i've seen fry bread sold there and at other places are: 1 - navajo/indian taco: frybread the size of a paper plate with ground beef, shredded yellow cheese, lettuce, refried beans, etc. i'm sure someone, somewhere (probably either at stanford, dartmouth or university of arizona) has written an excellent graduate thesis on the ethno-gastronomical significance of this dish, but all you have to worry about is that it's good eatin! 2 - frybread with honey and powdered sugar. same frybread, but served as a dessert. tasty! 3 - frybread as an accompaniment to green chilli or mutton stew. this is my personal favorite way to eat frybread. especially good when it's super cold outside. Mon Jan 12 13:15:43 -0800 2009 4311236 241795 ceviche 2 4319929 do you know if there are places at the stanford powwow that sell the mutton stew or green chili? cause if there are im there!
