Served in a simmering pot with a selection of dunkable ingredients, cheese fondue is without a doubt one of the most popular dishes among cheese lovers around the world. Now, the famous Swiss dish can be prepared, stirred up and served by a robot chef. A Swiss team has been working away on Bouebot, the robotic creation putting a futuristic twist on an Alpine tradition. The robot, which cost up to £240,000 ($325,000) to develop, is set to make its grand debut at the Paris International Agricultural Show, one of the world's major food production trade fairs, which begins this weekend.
