The lunchtime line is out the door at Creator, a recent addition to this city’s hip downtown foodie scene.
But the chef here has no Michelin stars, no attitude and no heart. Because the chef is a robot.
Steak, tomatoes, onions, buns and condiments get loaded into an ingenious machine, and a freshly ground, gourmet hamburger rolls out.
“And it’s only $6,” says Creator founder, Alex Vardakostas, 34, who started flipping patties at his parent’s Southern California burger joint A’s Burgers at age 9 and figured he could find a better way to make this American classic. “For the price of a Big Mac, you’re getting organic ingredients and a perfect hamburger, every time.”
