Lebanese businessman Mohamed al-Faqih decided to open the first "touchless" restaurant in Toronto, Canada, to help customers enjoy Arabic food, while respecting the rules of social separation.
With this, Box'd became the first fully “self” restaurant in Canada, where the customer enters the restaurant and then chooses the meal he wants from his cell phone, by scanning the restaurant’s digital code. After waiting for some time, the customer's name appears on the orders screen, and he is asked to go to one of the sterile glass boxes in which his application will be ready by a number of in-house chefs who prepare it. To open these boxes where food is placed automatically, the customer must double click on them.
It is noteworthy that Fakih succeeded in launching a chain of "Paramount" restaurants that offer Arabic food, years ago, which met with great success, and became one of the most famous restaurants in Toronto and other cities in Canada.
