Waiterless Restaurant Opens in Germany, Sommeliers Worried

By Malcolm Owen | Aug 27, 2007

So, you’re in Nuremberg looking for something to do. You feel hungry, but going to a normal restaurant with bossy waiting staff isn’t your cup of tea. Where could you possibly go?
How about somewhere without the aforementioned waiters? A self-service restaurant that isn’t a buffet such as ’s Baggers, where the food gets served by going down huge rails from the ceiling, straight to the table. You order from a screen at your table, and the food slides down ready for you to eat. The screen ordering also gives updates as to how long food and drinks will take to arrive, and payment is done by smartcards. It’s pretty nice to look at, slightly Steampunk-ish, but an elegant design for a not thought of much problem.

I have to wonder how long will it take for McDonalds to take advantage of this…
