I thought robots were preparing the food? What's this about?
- axtscz 6y agoFrom their website: >The Mezli founders teamed up with Eric Minnich, a classically trained chef with experience at Michelin-starred restaurants, to develop a menu that a robot can confidently execute 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Because there are no humans involved or expensive rent to pay, that means you can get a cauliflower and turmeric rice bowl for $4.99. I guess he's the chef that created the menu
- Qworg 6y ago> Our human-powered ghost kitchen is dishing out our Mediterranean menu from our San Mateo location (Stop by! https://order.mezli.com https://order.mezli.com). At the same time, we’re building our full-scale food-safe v2 prototype and are shooting to have it up and serving customers later this month. Once our auto-kitchen is working reliably and is robust enough to handle a few knocks, we’re going to start forward-deploying it to parking lots and garages in the Bay Area to test out our operational model. Then, it’ll be time to build multiple auto-kitchens and eventually develop multiple concepts so each auto-kitchen rotates to a new menu on a regular cadence.

Everywhere in the continental United States, a hamburger from McDonald's tastes the same. If I find a few things I like from a restaurant, that's what I am going there for. If I want to be surprised, I will go somewhere new.
