Robot waiters attract customers to Shanghai restaurant.While many business owners in the catering sector are struggling with labor shortages after the Spring Festival, a restaurant owner in Shanghai has decided to fill his restaurant with robot waiters. The popular restaurant in the city's downtown area employs two types of robots: some navigate their way around on tracks, and others move freely around the restaurant.
In addition to taking orders and serving food, the automated waiters also prove a popular attraction at the restaurant, with diners eager to try the service."It's a new experience. It's the first time I have seen robots serve dishes. I wish they could come to our house and cook for us, or do the dishes," said a customer. The owner of the restaurant said the robots were a good deal for the business: they proved a good investment as each one only requires 200 yuan's worth of electricity charge per year.
