moJo iCuisine's touch-sensitive tables await to serve you

In what's a mockery at most busy hotels and restaurants worldwide where guests are often left waiting for the waiter to serve them, the Taipei-based moJo iCuisine has come up with a unique technology solution to address this common customer grievance. An interactive touch-enabled facility lets customers place orders directly from the table. An overhead projector flashes the menu on each table and the built-in sensors help the customers scan through, place the order and even settle bills.

And since the screen flashes at both ends of the table, you can discuss the menu at length with your partner before you place your order. Each menu item is elaborately explained with accompanying snaps and information on key ingredients and preparation style. It is especially a boon for foreign tourists who can't make out the local dish just by its name. While the order gets ready, the touchscreen lets you play games, fill feedback or survey forms or simply surf through commercials. More importantly, you can keep an eye on the bill as you dine to make sure your food and wine orders stay within your budget.

While the customers completely relish the new experience, the restaurant database captures each customer's tastes and preferences that will help in business growth as well as deciding on new menu offerings and marketing schemes. moJo iCuisine has indeed made an innovative use of technology to serve the food which the restaurant calls 'A fine blend of western food, fusion, and molecular gastronomy'.
