The phrase he's looking for is actually Virtual Brands.

>Virtual brands are restaurants available only on third-party delivery apps. Their creators use existing restaurant kitchens to whip up orders from a menu that was designed for off-premise customers. Pizza, chicken wings and burgers are popular options because they all travel well and don’t usually require extra equipment to make.

Yeah, alot of confusion around ghost kitchens VS this.

I like to think of it like a diffusion line, it just takes up more "shelf" space in the app or tries to entice people to order from someplace "new" that they would've never ordered from otherwise. I hate them.

Huh!

Really good reviews, pics look promising, tiny menu so they have focus…

Thanks! I kinda sorta heard of them but the name seems so…generic and unrelated to much of anything, I guess…I never would have looked into them but they seem promising.
