In a couple of days, I will finally return to Thirty Nine Restaurant, one of the very best—but, sadly, very underrated, at least by Oklahomans—Indigenous restaurants in the whole country. I can’t wait to try the vastly improved, renewed, and very different “Mach 2” version of this impressive eatery.
That being said…
In preparation for that triumphant meal, I decided I wanted to take my wife to one of the best— but, sadly, very underrated, at least by Oklahomans—Indigenous fast-food restaurants in the whole country.
Yes, I had to take her to FireLake Fry Bread Taco, 1568 Gordon Cooper Dr. in Shawnee.
Now, to be fair, this is my third time reviewing FireLake, mostly because people are always trying to find a place that continually serves fry bread other than community centers, church dining halls, and roadside stands. When it comes to fry bread tacos, people want them hot and people want them now!
