In May 2019, three former SpaceX engineers Benson Tsai, Brian Langone and James Wahawisan produced an automated mobile kitchen that can cook 100 pizzas per hour. Stellar Pizza, a robotic restaurant that will be commissioned next year, will be able to produce a pizza in 45 seconds.
Pizzas Will Be Cooked On The Way To The Delivery Point
According to the news of Business Insider, Stellar Pizza, which will serve as a wheeled restaurant with a fully automatic kitchen that can cook pizzas on the way to the delivery point, has more than 23 employees working in Elon Musk’s company in the past.
The process starts with a ball of raw pizza dough that is pressed and shaped. Homemade gravy and fresh toppings are then added, and the raw pizza is placed in one of four specially designed high-temperature ovens.
In an interview with ABC7, Company CEO Tsai said, “What we have is an automated restaurant on wheels and we’ll be able to prepare meals on the way home. We don’t have real estate. And it will be a higher quality, more consistent product because it’s an automated machine that does the same movements every time.”
Stellar Pizza’s Origin: The Solution to Delivery Challenges
Tsai left the company in 2019 amid high commission fees, elusive profits, and a desire to find solutions to food delivery challenges, Forbes reported. They hired 23 SpaceX engineers and a handful of food service experts (including SpaceX’s executive chef Ted Cizma and pizza consultant Noel Brohner) and developed Stellar Pizza under parent company Serve Automation.
9 Million Dollars Investment Received
The company, which collected $ 9 million from investors in November 2020, is expected to make an additional tour soon. This fund will be used to build the mobile ghost kitchen fleet and grow the team. The first mobile kitchen will hit the road in Los Angeles in the spring of 2021.
