    I don’t have a problem with ghost kitchens. The best Indian takeaway (by far) near me doesn’t have a restaurant, they’re delivery (or collection) only. The curries are superb, and the prices are decent, presumably because they don’t have the overheads of a restaurant, waiters, bar staff, tables, chairs, linens, crockery, cutlery.

    And I’d rather ghost kitchens existed than find myself sitting in a real restaurant, waiting for my food, while a constant stream of helmet-wearing moped riders come in and get priority.

      I might be misunderstanding what a ghost kitchen is. Kitchens without a storefront are sometimes good but the “restaurants” that are just brands licensed to establishments, like this one, are almost always the lowest of peddled trash. That said, I’m hoping to order it at some point and make a post on it here.

      I’ve got no problem with those kinds of ghost kitchens, and some of my favorite places to get food from are take-out only too. This looks like one of the Virtual Dining Concepts kitchens where they have like 30 “restaurants” taking up space on delivery apps all having the exact same menu so you’re more likely to order from them than a local place
