An unsettling new restaurant chain learns your preferences and serves your food with zero human interaction

chain called Eatsa is unlike any fast-food chain we've seen before. The restaurant is almost fully automated, functioning like a human-powered vending machine that spits out freshly-prepared quinoa bowls. It was recently named one of the most influential brands in the restaurant industry by Nation's Restaurant News. When customers enter Eatsa, they order their food at an iPad kiosk. Then they wait in front of a wall of glass cubbies, where their food will be appear when it's ready. Hidden behind the wall of cubbies, kitchen staff prepare the food. The entire process requires zero human interaction between customers and workers. The company says its goal is to "democratize access to nutritious food." "With our unique technology, we can provide better food, faster, and at an unprecedented price of just $6.95," Eatsa's website says. The chain has two locations in San Francisco and Los Angeles and plans to add 10 more restaurants this year, according to Nation's Restaurant News.
