A restaurant in the Netherlands is planning on using robots as servers as lockdown restrictions lift.
RENESSE, NETHERLANDS -- You can always count on a robot for perfect timing.
"They came in just ahead of that time," said Hu's daughter Leah, who also works at the restaurant, the Royal Palace. "I've had negative reactions," she said, "such as saying it makes it impersonal." But it may prove just what customers crave when Dutch restaurants are allowed to reopen on Monday as lockdown restrictions are further eased.
And in the southern Zeeland province, the Hus don't want to hear any complaints about the robots robbing young people of a job. They say it's hard enough anyway to find staff in a rural region without any major city close by.
