Mrs. White’s Golden Rule Cafe in Phoenix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

How do you become a centenarian?\u00a0 For Elizabeth White, achieving 100 years of age may be attributed to living the Golden Rule (“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”).\u00a0 She instilled that spirit into the restaurant she purchased from her brother in 1964.\u00a0\u00a0Phoenix was a much more segregated city when Elizabeth White christened her eatery “The Golden Rule Cafe.” Despite the prevailing attitudes of the time, she believed in treating everyone with kindness and respect, a core tenet of the Golden Rule.\u00a0 Her prominent prescence and welcoming spirit led to guests adding “Mrs. White’s” to the “Golden Rule Cafe.”\u00a0 Like the wonderful woman who founded the restaurant, Mrs. White’s Golden Rule Cafe is an institution.<\/p>\n

Mrs. White’s Golden Rule Cafe is a home away from home for guests of all walks of life.\u00a0 Famous clientele include Senator John NcCain, Jesse Jackson, James Brown and others.\u00a0 Guests frequent Mrs. White’s for comfort food, but they return because of the hospitality.\u00a0 You really are treated like a welcome guest.\u00a0 A longtime community cornerstone, its kitchen serves up authentic Southern soul food reminiscent of grandma’s cooking.\u00a0 Slow-cooked meals prepared to order hearken back to the days before homogenized food at copycat restaurants.\u00a0 It’s not a fancy restaurant by any stretch and it’s not exactly easy to get here, but wow, is the trip worth it.\u00a0 It’s a trip made by the Food Network, Travel Network and most recently by the bombastic Gordon Ramsay.<\/p>\n

Fruit Punch Kool Aid<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“Wait a minute<\/em>,” you say, “doesn’t Gordon Ramsay visit restaurants in dire need of help?<\/em>\u00a0 Indeed, the “Gordon Ramsay’s Secret Service” show was synopsized as “Gordon surveils and works to save a legendary soul food cafe on the verge of losing its legacy<\/em>.”\u00a0 The show’s premise is to gather raw, unfiltered evidence and geta view of major issues facing a restaurant.\u00a0 He works with an “insider” to infiltrate the restaurant after hours to investigate the kitchen with black light technology that sometimes reveals “dirty secrets.”\u00a0 Ramsay then\u00a0 takes drastic measures to transform not only the restaurant but also the staff.\u00a0 Ramsay recognizes that he can upgrade the menu and renovate the restaurant, but the most important change has to come from the people.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the June, 2025 episode, Ramsay encountered a deteriorating building, malfunctioning oven, peeling counters, dysfunctional equipment, and family conflict over management, particularly between Mrs. White and her son, Larry.\u00a0 With techniques similar to what a professional interventionalist might employ, Ramsay helped the family transform the restaurant, leading to improved kitchen operations, a focus on the restaurant’s founding principles and a renewed determination to preserve the restaurant’s legacy.\u00a0 Whatever problems may have existed earlier in the year seemed a long ago memory.\u00a0 We found an immaculate restaurant being capably run by Mrs. White’s eldest granddaughter.<\/p>\n

Mrs. White’s menu has been called a “treasure trove” of classic Southern food, each dish crafted with care and tradition.\u00a0 Every item on the menu tells a story of love and heritage.\u00a0 It’s soul food at its very best–honest, satisfying and full of heart.\u00a0 Among the standout dishes that keep guests coming back are golden, crispy and juicy fried chicken; a hearty slice of meatloaf topped with a tangy tomato sauce; collard greens slow cooked with smoked meat and mac and cheese as creamy and cheesy as your dreams might conjure up.\u00a0 Inscribed on the rooftop enclosure is “Chicken Fried Steak 7 Days a Week.”\u00a0 Doesn’t that sound like an invitation?<\/p>\n

In his terrific tome Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine, One Plate at a Time\u00a0<\/a><\/em><\/strong>culinary historian\u00a0Adrian Miller\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>declared red Kool-Aid to be the official soul food drink. That\u2019s a pretty audacious claim for which he puts up a good argument. In the South, Kool-Aid tends to be made with almost as many scoops of sugar as there are granules of Kool-Aid. That wasn’t the case with the fruit punch kool aid<\/strong><\/em> at Mrs. White’s.\u00a0 It tastes like\u00a0a sweet, sugary, artificial blend of tropical fruits, primarily cherry, pineapple, and orange, similar to other classic fruit punch drinks and Hawaiian Punch, with a distinct candy-like essence rather than real fruit juice<\/p>\n

Shortly after our beverages (sweet tea for my Kim, brother-in-law Tim and his bride Lola) were ferried out, our delightful server brought out a plate of cornbread<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Unlike the cornbread which falls apart into a crumbly mess, this cornbread was light and buttery.\u00a0 While the rest of our party enjoyed the cornbread with even more butter, I doused mine in hot sauce.\u00a0 It drew comments of “yech” from our guests who roiled at the notion that I might actually order oxtail (a dish I love).<\/p>\n

Perhaps it was the signage on the roof that beckoned me or maybe it was remembering all the trips Bruce “Sr. Plata” Silver and I made to restaurants serving chicken fried steak,<\/strong><\/a> but my choice was inevitable.\u00a0 As with other plates on the menu, the chicken fried steak<\/strong><\/em> is served with two sides.\u00a0 \u00a0This is an excellent chicken fried steak with a delightful crust so reminiscent of fried chicken.\u00a0 That crust sheathed a very tender and juicy pounded steak you could cut with a fork.\u00a0 My sides were mashed potatoes and gravy along with a jalape\u00f1o cornbread.\u00a0 The latter took me back to Hackney’s<\/strong><\/a> in Lake Zurich, Illinois where coleslaw was made with horseradish.<\/p>\n

Everyone else at our table had Mrs. White’s fried chicken<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Every credentialed source you’ll find across the state will tell you Mrs. White’s fried chicken is the very best in Arizona.\u00a0 It’s hard to dispute that.\u00a0 The chicken is moist, juicy, golden…absolutely mouth-watering.\u00a0 Best of all, it’s chicken on steroids.\u00a0 Every piece is large and meaty.\u00a0 My Kim doesn’t often finish a plateful of anything she orders, but save for the morsels she shared with me, she finished off her chicken.<\/p>\n

Mrs. White’s Golden Rule Cafe is among the very best fried chicken restaurants we’ve visited across the fruited plain.\u00a0 We would love to have met the lady who subscribes to the golden rule.<\/p>\n
