There's been lots of basic technologies that could replace waiters, even phone switches + operators, but the reality is people want interaction. In some cases this will make sense, but not for 90% of restaurants.
- electromagnetic 15y agoTo actually be useful everything on the menu would have to have at least an allergy list. They'd also need to be customizable or the restaurant will actually lose business. I won't eat asparagus or whole mushrooms. I have friends that are vegetarian, or that wont eat veal/lamb, etc. It's hard enough finding a good restaurant to go to and accommodate everyone, let alone go to a restaurant that can't even afford to hire waiters and can't ask does xyz have peanuts in? Cause you know buying lunch really sucks when someone goes into anaphylactic shock because their waiter app can't handle allergy info.
- alexismadrigal 15y agoI think they can do that actually.
- juiceandjuice 15y agoSo give the waiter a tablet.
