Nossa, a southern Brazilian restaurant in Los Angeles, opened in January when the city was still in lockdown. At that time, offering food to go was the only option, and director of operations Xandre Borghetti was happy to use big delivery companies to support the business’s launch.
“During the pandemic, I was talking to every single restaurant person I know across the industry, and I said you should always be optimizing for delivery and you should always be thinking about diversifying revenue streams,” he said. “And I still stand by that. But when I step back and look at the bigger picture, I’ve seen from an operational standpoint that it’s not quite that easy.”
Digital Restaurants, Real Food: ‘Ghost Kitchens’ Pop Up in Northeast Wisconsin By Rob Sussman

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) â There are a few new restaurants open now in Northeast Wisconsinâ¦but you wonât be able to get a table.
Digital restaurants, or âghost kitchensâ, as theyâre sometimes called, have no physical locations. Theyâre digital-only, available through delivery apps like DoorDash, UberEats, and GrubHub.
Thereâs nothing digital about the food, though. Real kitchens, from established restaurants, make the food before a driver picks it up and delivers it to the customer.
In Green Bay, one of those places is JJ Cafe. Owner and manager Jamie Waller has signed on with a digital restaurant franchising group and is now operating two out of his kitchen, in addition to their regular service.

Let s start with pizzas, the midnight snack of champions. In the United States, the Big Mama s and Papa s Pizzeria in Los Angeles, California, serves the world s largest deliverable pizza.
Called the Giant Sicilian , it measures a massive 54 inches wide and 54 inches long. The pizza is cut into 200 slices and it is impossible for one person to finish it. This dish that costs a cool $250 (Dh918.25) can feed up to 70 people.
Wondering if there is a giant oven that bakes this pizza? Well, not really. According to their website: The Giant Sicilian Pizza requires multiple pizza experts to make and bake. Our ovens don t have the capacity to cook this pizza so we use a custom made extension that sits on the open door and creates a seal between the door and the oven to keep in the heat, as almost one-fourth of the pizza sticks out of the oven. The pizza is rotated throughout the cooking time to assure it cooks evenly on all sides.
