| contents | The knowledge transfer from 3D printing technology paved the way for unlocking the innovative potential of 3D Food Printing (3DFP) technology. However, this technology-oriented approach neglects userderived issues that could be addressed with advancements in 3DFP technology. To explore potential new features and application areas for 3DFP technology, we created the Mobile Food Printer (MFP) prototype. We collected insights from novice chefs for MFP in the restaurant context through four online focus group sessions (N=12). Our results revealed how MFP can be applied in the current kitchen routines (preparation, serving, and eating) and introduce novel dining experiences. We discuss our learnings under two themes: 1) dealing with the kitchen rush and 2) streamlining workflows in the kitchen. The opportunities we present in this study act as a starting point for HCI and HFI researchers and encourage them to implement mobility in 3DFP with a useroriented lens. We further provide a ground for future research to uncover potentials for advancing 3DFP technology. |
