One of the lighter sides to the story of the Eihatsu Maru, the Japanese trawler stranded on Clifton beach, was the story of the pizzas that Butler's delivered to the crew (and the captain's dog.) This gesture of kindness even made it into the London Metro newspaper and the Wall Street Journal.The story carried on with Butler's delivering pizza to to the Consul of Japan and to Captain Merriman and his crew aboard the SMIT Amandla. (this video clip is sure to make you smile)....and now, Butler's are working with NSRI to help us raise funds. Butler's Pizza certainly go the extra mile. Thanks guys !
