California: A new player has
joined
LA's diverse restaurants and food truck cultures. Kate
Koyama and Eric Evans have opened the Auntie’s Fry Bread Gourmet
Food Truck.
“Growing up in a
community where fry bread is as common as hamburgers, I was
surprised that a city as large and culturally diverse as Los
Angeles did not offer fry bread,” Koyama said.Koyama’s family has run Koyama Indian Tacos at Montana's Little Big Horn Days Festival for over 20 years. Their family recipe for fry bread and fry bread tacos are a big hit with the crowds.
Auntie’s Fry Bread combines those traditional frybread recipes
with modern and unexpected ingredients -- a kind of "Native
American Fusion."
When Koyama and Evans opened a booth at Farmer’s Markets throughout Los
Angeles. The demand for their Native American fusion food
quickly grew and was greater than the booth could handle. The
two decided a food truck would be the best way to share their
food and grow their business. Auntie’s Fry Bread Food Truck was funded through Kickstarter, a web fundraising company. Kickstarter is an online community for artists, foodies, and other creative people to post a project or concepts that "backers" or donors might consider. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
