Bring Back The Automat!

,

I saw this on YouTube the other day, and I thought this might be the future of eating out in a socially distanced world. I remember going to an automat in Germany many years ago, and I always loved the concept.  Of course, Japan takes this concept to another level with vending machines for everything!

The automat model attempts to solve many problems in the restaurant industry right now – labor shortages, COVID-19, impatient guests. I think contactless dining might catch on.

What’s Cooking: Mexican Buñuelos

My local library usually hosts La Posada during Christmas, but it has been canceled for the last two years because of the pandemic.  Las Posadas is a reenactment of the nativity of Jesus which is celebrated throughout Latin America, especially Mexico.

After La Posada activities, everyone eats buñuelos, or fried dough topped with cinnamon or powdered sugar and dipped in hot syrup or chocolate!  In Colombia, they look like little fried balls with some curd cheese inside.

I found this recipe on YouTube and tried it for myself.
