Kitchen Dinner

Places where you go to cook dinner that has all the tools and ingredients and is social.

I know they already have these, so maybe the idea is for them to get better marketing. But here goes.

So basically all the place needs is a good big open kitchen feeling. Probably shouldn't be industrial, but like homey, people don't wanna feel like they are a line chef at a restaurant, but like at home chillin. There would have to be a big wall of food that you could just grab. Like a grocery story with stoves. I can also imagine a really loose price structure, where someone comes up to you in the process of cooking and eating who knows what foods cost and is just like, 20-ish dollars please.

And you could talk to other people cooking in there and then go and sit in the table section which would also have to be optimally posed so that people could interact. Maybe like a bar so that you could sit up and talk to the people who are still cooking.

I mean, if something like this took off you could totally outsource all of your cooking into this format. I mean, you could even go as far as setting something like this up in specific reference to a living situation, like a consortium of several apartment complexes could offer access to this place (and help fund it) and build houses with super low key kitchens. I mean, that is sort of awful. But someone might like it. And at least it creates the potential for community for lonely, boring 30 somethings.
