High Tech Dining
Going out for a meal is one of life’s biggest pleasures. Whether it’s a pizza at the local Italian restaurant or fine dining at a top hotel, we all love the experience of going out to eat. We choose restaurants according to the atmosphere, the type of food, the service and, of course, our budget.
(1) ___
We know that high technology is already involved in food preparation, and chefs have a wide range of kitchen gadgets to make better dishes, more efficiently. We shall soon be discovering that technology has an importance in the actual dining experience itself. Some restaurants have already understood the need for this and have introduced some amazing new ideas. These will probably become quite normal in the future. In just a few years, paper menus may well be a thing of the past. We’ll be using the table top as a computer screen, and pictures of the different meals available will appear on our empty plates for us to choose from. We’ll also be able to order directly from our tables, tapping in codes on virtual keyboards on the tables. We’ll be communicating directly with the kitchen and there will be no need for waiters to take our orders.
(2) ___ How many times have you got the wrong meal because the busy waiter either didn’t write down your order or wrote it down incorrectly?
Technology like this will be good for restaurants that need diners to eat quickly and move on, allowing other people to take their places. (3) ___ However, is it necessarily going to be a good thing for us? Getting the correct meal quickly is important, but surely this introduction of high tech ordering will mean that many waiters will lose their jobs. One restaurant in Germany has already got rid of the need for any waiters at all by putting in a mini roller coaster which delivers meals directly from the kitchen! (4) ___ Diners want to take their time and enjoy the interaction with waiters.
As we have already seen, however, technology touches nearly every aspect of our lives and it is inevitable that restaurants will change soon.
(5) ___ And whether we see interactive dining as adventurous and fun or a sad end to a great tradition, it is something that we shall all have to accept.
A This will reduce the time we have to wait and also reduce the possibility of human error when taking orders.
B Many experts believe that normal restaurants will have changed dramatically by the year 2020.
C It’s easy to see why – they will make more money!
D Soon, however, there may be another factor that helps us choose a restaurant, and that is technology!
E Another point to consider is that at certain restaurants people do not always want to rush.
