  • Quisisana was a German company that introduced the world's first automat restaurant in June 1895 on the grounds of the Berlin Zoological Garden, Germany. The establishment was considered a success, selling 5,400 sandwiches, 9,000 glasses of wine and cordials, and 22,000 cups of coffee on its first Sunday of business. Quisisana also manufactured automat machines and equipment, including a milk vending machine which was adapted for use in German schools. The name Quisisana comes from the Italian phrase qui si sana [ˈkwi ssi ˈsaːna], which roughly translates to "here one is healed" or "here you become healthy". Automat is a loanword from German for automaton which was adopted from Latin automatus, who originally borrowed it from the Greek autómatos (αὐτόματος) meaning "acting of itself". (en)
