A Dubai restaurant has installed interactive tables that allow guests to swipe through the menu, update their Facebook status and even order a taxi home.

Ebony Interactive Restaurant tablets

At Ebony Interactive Restaurant in Dubai, interaction with wait staff is minimal, as diners can browse the digital menu, place their order, and watch chefs prepare their meal via ‘chef cams’ by using the touchscreen tabletops.

The interactive tables also allow guests to customize their decor and choose from a range of images and patterns for their desktop ‘tablecloth.’

While waiting for their meal guests can catch up on current news, check in on Facebook or send greetings and virtual cards to diners at other tables.

The project aligns nicely with the Dubai Smart City initiative which aims to transform the city into one of the most connected destinations in the world.
