Automat: Dense vending machines that start empty and are difficult to see through. Can be unlocked and programmed with chef id or better, but only from the kitchen side.

Chef can place 'edible' objects in automat and define whether they are free or cost things. Costs are defined entirely by the chef and proceeds go directly to the linked id's account (possibly after nt tax).
Automat can be loaded but only from the kitchen side.
Automat changes sprite between empty sprite and containing things sprite based on if it contains vendable objects or not.

If chef still wants to lay shit out for people to consume, they can do it on the bar kitchen lobby side.
