Dimenticatevi Sydney e Melbourne, con le loro pretese di essere le capitali culinarie d’Australia.
La miglior pizza del paese si trova nel Queensland, nella rinomata localtà turistica di Airlie Beach.
Il locale si chiama Beagles Pizza ed è stato incoronato dai voti degli utenti di Trip Advisor, il più grande sito di viaggi al mondo, basandosi sulle recensioni e le opinioni degli utenti (con particolare peso per quelle ricevute l’ultimo anno).
Alle sue spalle ancora centri regionali, con Byron Bay, Katoomba e Noosa protagonisti.
Sydney compare finalmente in quinta posizione, con una pizzeria “underground”, Frankie’s Pizza.
