This Australian hotel is making weekly pizza deliveries up to 250 miles away to feed rural residents.
Despite being in a remote part of Australia's Northern Territory, the Dunmarra Wayside Inn has collected a few dozen—and a lot of them talk about how good the food is. One visitor said that its pies were "something to behold," other guests said the Inn served the best vanilla slice pastries they'd ever eaten, while others praised the steaks cooked by owner Gary Frost himself.
Although the Wayside Inn isn't getting any visitors at the moment due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions in the territory, some nearby cattle stations are still going to get a chance to try its pizza.that Frost, who is also a pilot, has been flying pizzas to his locked-down 'neighbors,' even those who live 100 kilometers away.
The cost of a pizza is the same as it would be if someone ordered it at the Inn. As a business model goes, Frost says that it's not sustainable—but he also says that's not the point. "I suppose the cost of it is prohibitive as a commercial venture, but we're not doing it as a commercial venture," he told the outlet. "We're just doing it as a friendly gesture to try and help people out and create the right atmosphere.
