Ghost kitchen operator allows customers to combine items from multiple concepts
Local Kitchens, a new ghost kitchen concept that allows customers to order from multiple local restaurant brands, has opened in the San Francisco area with locations in Lafayette, San Jose and Cupertino, Calif.
Local Kitchens operates outposts of Curry Up Now, Glaze, Humphry Slocombe, The Little Chihuahua, MIXT, Proposition Chicken, Saucy Asian, Señor Sisig, and Wise Sons, offering both delivery and takeout from its 10,000-square-foot spaces. Unlike many ghost kitchen models, Local Kitchen operates all of its locations with its own staff, who have been trained by the individual restaurants to produce all of the menus, said Jon Goldsmith, CEO and co-founder of Local Kitchen, in an interview with Nation’s Restaurant News.
