The robots of the Italian company Makr Shakr have now made more than a million cocktails. The two arms have access to a bottle-ceiling and other ingredients, such as ice, lemon and syrup, and shake a cocktail in under 90 seceonds. But we don't necessarily have to go abroad for these kinds of innovations. Take mr. Mofongo in Groningen, where bartenders work with two ultramodern robots. Owner Patrick Beijk: “with one robot, the bartender enters one of the 56 liqueur numbers and while the robot arm taps it from an eight-metre high wall, the bartender prepares the glass. New is the horizontally moving robot arm in the wine cellar, which guests can see through the transparent floor. This arm retrieves one of the eighty (!) bottles selected by the bartender. At the same time, a vertically moving robot arm places the glasses and then delivers the full glass or wine bottle to the bartender.”
Crazy about burgers? Then we have good news for you. At burger restaurant Creator, burgers are freshly made with a 'hamburger machine'. Baking buns, adding sauces, cutting the toppings fresh, melting cheese and baking the hamburger: the hamburger robot does all the work. Guests can track their orders through the glass wall.
