What： Automat restaurant

How much： 1.60-6.50 euros

In the Netherlands there is a restaurant chain that serves food exclusively out of vending machines or automats. Open 24 hours a day， FEBO is popular among tourists and local night owls. It offers a Dutch menu including croquettes， frikandels （a deep-fried sausage） and kaassouffles （a melted-cheese snack）. But rather than being prepared in the vending machines， the food is prepared by humans in a kitchen behind the machines.

How much： 3-4.5 euros

Italians invented the pizza， so it was only a matter of time until they invented a pizza-making machine.

It kneads the dough， spreads the sauce on it， adds a choice of four toppings and then bakes the pizza. The machine can make up to 100 26-centimeter pizzas before it needs to be refilled.

懶人的福音

Making mashed potato is a long， laborious process. But thanks to Maggie， a Swiss food and condiment company， it can be as simple as just adding hot water to a packet of mashed potato powder. In Singapore， however， not even that is necessary anymore. Many 7-Eleven stores there now have Maggie mashed potato machines. All hungry customers need to do is to place a cup under the machines nozzle， push a button and mashed potato comes out. You can even add chicken gravy sauce if you like.

做土豆泥本是費時又費力的事。但得益于瑞士Maggie食品調(diào)料公司，你只需要把熱水倒入一包土豆泥粉中，土豆泥就可輕松制作完成了。然而在新加坡，就連這個工序都可以省了。如今，很多新加坡的7-Eleven便利店都配備了Maggie土豆泥自動售貨機。饑腸轆轆的顧客只要把杯子放在機器噴嘴下面，按下按鈕，土豆泥就出來了！你喜歡的話，還可以加上雞汁醬。
