Fancy a honey sriracha crust or a salad with a balsamic drizzle? These might sound like meals at an upmarket restaurant, but they can be found at Pizza Hut. The rebrand also includes a new logo, delivery boxes, casual-looking uniforms, and a new motto: “The Flavour of Now.”

While Siri boasts the ability to give you directions, answer questions and give updates on sports scores, Domino's has launched Dom - a voice activated app that does one thing: order pizza. With many predicting the future of mobile being voice, is Dom just the start?

Eating out is no longer just about food and drink. Innovations from apps that trace ingredients to fast-track ordering are shaping service expectations. But can too much seem gimmicky? And should restaurants concentrate on mastering quality ingredients rather than the latest tech?

Dining out is evolving. With the restaurant industry now worth over £40 billion in the UK alone, more venues are taking inspiration from theatre, television and film to create story-rich, immersive and highly sensory experiences that entice new diners through the door.
