Last week the Wall Street Journal broke the story that McDonald’s is testing robotic deep fryers and voice-activated drive-thrus at a location in suburban Chicago. The story didn’t lay out a ton of details. We don’t know what the robotic fryer will look like — whether it’s akin to Miso Robotic’s Flippy, which fries tater tots with an articulating arm, or if it’s more of an automated basket that dips and raises from hot oil. Likewise, all we know about the new drive-thru tech is that it’s a type of voice recognition technology.

Gregory Scott’s friends have asked him to find a quiet restaurant for dinner. Until recently this would have been a challenge, given that Scott lives in New York. “It’s known to be one of the noisiest cities in the world,” he says. Now he feels confident that, although he has never been, a small borscht joint called Ukrainian East Village will fit the bill.

McDonald's is being called on to stop its roll out of paper straws in the UK and Ireland, amid claims that they "dissolve" in drinks.

Chicken wings aren’t good, yet the ones at Ponderosa Steakhouse in 1999 were delicious. The chain of buffets was founded in 1963 by Dan Blocker, who played Eric “Hoss” Cartwright on Bonanza, and enjoyed its peak popularity when TV Westerns were still big. Ponderosa was the name of the ranch on Bonanza. When I was 5, as I was in 1999, I did not care about these facts...

The first, the largest and the most research-friendly. Under is the world's largest underwater restaurant with a total seating capacity for 100 guests, it's the first of its kind in Europe, and it also functions as a research center for marine life. The Snøhetta-designed dining experience started operating just yesterday but people are already adding it to their Norway destination lists.

Burger King’s newest discount is quite a whopper. No, not that kind of Whopper. The kind that gets customers to walk in and smell the coffee. Burger King rolled out its own coffee subscription service: a cup a day for $5 a month. The chain is betting on the service to get early risers in the door — and away from other big names in the fast-food breakfast game.

What would happen if you went to Outback Steakhouse on Valentine's Day and pretended to get stood up by a date that never existed?

A few years back while on break, Kelly Young remembers pulling into an Italian steakhouse off Route 54 in Delaware. It was date night for him and his wife, Megan. They made their way to a table, sat down and, within seconds, realized they couldn’t eat there. Over on a wall, “there was the biggest TV that I’ve ever seen,” Young recalls. “It’s like me, her and the TBS movie of the week.”

The French capital's very first restaurant reserved exclusively for naked diners will close its doors in February just 15 months after opening due to a lack of the simple bare necessity: customers. Paris' very first nudist restaurant O'Naturel gave diners a place to leave their clothes and inhibitions at the door and its opening in November 2017 was hailed as evidence of the rising popularity of naturism in France.

Rick Antosh was just planning to stop for a simple lunch at a Manhattan restaurant but ended up leaving a few thousand dollars richer. The New Jersey man met a friend at the Oyster Bar inside Grand Central Terminal earlier this month and ordered an oyster pan roast. As he was eating the meal, Antosh noticed something unusually hard as he bit into one of the oysters. As CBS News reported, the pea-shaped piece turned out to be a pearl worth thousands of dollars.
