8. Hajime Restaurant, Bangkok, Thailand
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Z1EaFFICI Hajime is a Yakiniku (grilled meats) restaurant, one of the extremely popular eateries in Asia that comes with a mini barbecue in the middle of each table. What makes Hajime unique is the fact that food is brought to you... by a samurai robot! That is correct; you are served by robot waiters. Every man's dream since Rocky 4? Each table at Hajime Restaurant has a touch screen monitor to scroll through menus, choose foods and send instructions to the robot. Within minutes it will then arrive to your table to hand over goods through a window next to it. The robot waiters zip along a track between tables and after passing trays they then disappear to the back kitchen for the next order. When you have finished with empty plates stack them back on the tray and the robot comes to collect, providing it isn't dancing to K-pop music at the time. At Hajime even though the meats are served by the robots, the customer barbecues meats themselves using built-in charcoal grills at the restaurant tables. Yakiniku barbecues aren't necessarily all meat and normally include seafood, veg, eringi etc. They also offer an all-you-can-eat Buffets for just 499 Baht ($15) also including dessert and drinks. Dancing samurai robots, barbecues and cheap all-you-can-eat buffets. What's not to love?
