Where： The Netherlands
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.
在荷兰，有一家只在自动售货机上出售食物的连锁餐厅。FEBO是一家自动贩卖式餐馆，提供24小时全天候服务，深受游客和当地“夜猫族”的欢迎。它提供的荷兰菜品包括炸肉丸、frikandels（一种油炸香肠）和kaassouffles（一种奶酪卷）。但是，这些食物并非是在自动贩卖机里制作的，而是在机器后面的厨房里人工烹饪的。

Italians invented the pizza， so it was only a matter of time until they invented a pizza-making machine. Let’s Pizza prepares fresh pizza in less then three minutes and allows the customer to watch the whole process through a window. 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.

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 machine’s nozzle， push a button and mashed potato comes out. You can even add chicken gravy sauce if you like.
