Future of Food: Spain's first virtual waiter app

How do you like your pizza?

Gluten free?

Extra cheese?

What about a drink on the side?

Don’t tell your waiter, tell your phone instead.

Claudia Medina, customer:

"Very interactive, very simple to use. The application is very user friendly and you even get the receipt."

This pizza joint in Spain is pioneering a futuristic dining experience that allows customers to avoid most face-to-face contact with staff.

The restaurant – called Funky Pizza- has its very own app – called Funky Pay.

Customers place orders through the app and can even track its progress and estimated time of arrival at the table.

Staff manage the orders from screens behind the bar.

While it’s an effective way to socially distance, not all customers are on board with the new style of eating out.

Javier Comas, customer:

"I am not that convinced by the experience, because I think we lose the feeling with the waiter, for example when you order you can't ask about different preferences or quantities. The feeling with the restaurant is lost, I am not convinced."

At Funky Pizza, the only time you’ll actually see a waiter is when your food is brought to the table.

But this restaurant in Egypt has taken things to the next level.

Here your food will be delivered by a tie and apron-wearing robot named ''Mozo'' - meaning "waiter" in Spanish.
