Instead of going back the 2019 business practices, some businesses expand their functions that address current needs. For example, ghost kitchens are centralized kitchens rented out to individual cooks. There is a centralized location for patrons to receive their food without a traditional restaurant space. This arrangement allows for:
- Better safety without an indoor location with guests who cannot wear a mask
- Cooks to start their own business with less overhead cost
- More variety per a location for customers
