Independent restaurateurs are embracing ghost kitchens

Chef-driven ghost kitchens are breaking into the chain-dominated market. Independent restaurants are seeing virtual concepts as an additional revenue stream that can evolve into brick-and-mortar locations.

The Red Robin grill-and-bar chain is giving the virtual market a try with the offer of at least three delivery-only concepts, two sporting chicken products and the third offering salads, according to consumer reports proliferating on the internet.

With airport business temporarily paused, Bayless is making his Tortas Frontera concept available through Kitchen United.

The facilities will help make delivery cheaper and faster, taking share from other models, the researcher said.

Gaining popularity pre-coronavirus, virtual kitchens are seeing increased interest as operators look to make up for lost dine-in revenue.
