Fully robotic pizzeria opens in Paris

There are ongoing attempts to automate the cooking process, but in most cases it is a demonstration of technology rather than a real entry into the commercial market. Pazzi Pizzeria in Paris is the first pizzeria to move to a new level of automation after 8 years of research and development. Now the whole process is done by robots, and customers are happy with the quality and taste of the food served.

Since pizza preparation involves a number of complex steps, different robotic mechanisms are used for each. One prepares the dough, another shapes it, a third applies tomato sauce, etc. So in just a few minutes, visitors can have a fully cooked pizza.

The owner assures that it takes about a minute to prepare a pizza. Baking is done in a 6-pizza oven and is pretty quick too. Packaging and slicing is also done by robots, and the price of pizza ranges from 7 to 14 euros, which is comparable to prices in conventional pizzerias.
