The future is now.

Well, it certainly feels that way when you walk through the doors at the flagship location of Eatsa, a new high-tech fast food restaurant that opens today, Monday, August 31st, near San Francisco’s Embarcadero.

Eatsa co-founders Scott Drummond and Tim Young.

According to co-founders Scott Drummond and Tim Young, Eatsa is all about using technology to reinvent fast food. 

What does that mean exactly?

As far as the food, the base for these affordable, fast, healthy — and completely meat-free — meals is quinoa. Diners can select from about 8 menu options ($6.95/bowl) — like the burrito bowl with beans, corn and guacamole — or choose to customize their own bowl themselves.

straight out of an episode of The Jetsons. . . . Welcome to Eatsa, a new futuristic fast food chain opening Monday

I guess this is the positive spin on raising the minimum wage so high that fast food restaurants can no longer afford to hire workers to work there. "Futuristic", as in a Hellish liberal future.

Is the robot getting paid $15 per hour?

But I thought they wanted to pay all of those poor fast food workers $15.00 an hour.

Oh well.

San Fran Comical click bait.

There are no robots involved in the concept anywhere despite the headline.

The plan is for it to be ready in less than minutes from the time the order is placed.

Wow they are really setting the bar high, would that goal be met if they served the order in say 59 minutes? Or less than 59 seconds?

We just got home from a restaurant. Zhous Five, the largest Asian buffet in Berlin.

From the article: “The dozen or so cooks remain unseen behind the wall of cubbies.”

Aside from the fact that there are no robots cooking any food, this article is completely accurate.

They’ve only dispensed with the order takers.

Once the food compartment opens, why can’t someone make off with someone else’s order?
