Oklahoma town eases pandemic, one restaurant meal at a time
(Zack's Cafe via AP)NEW YORK โ In Miami, Oklahoma, restaurants and their customers are doing their part to ease pandemic heartache, one meal at a time. The idea of providing free, pre-paid meals spread from restaurant to restaurant a few months ago. Many recipients are homeless or have otherwise hit hard times since the pandemic rolled into Miami (pronounced my-AM-uh), population about 13,000. AdSo far, customers at The Dawg House have provided more than 600 meals. The areaโs plentiful casinos have reopened, and restaurants like The Dawg House have welcomed back in-person dining, with fewer tables to provide for social distancing.
