Launch a second online food concept from the kitchen you already run

We create for you a new brand for online and pre-order sales only. Cook when you have free capacity and keep 100% of your dish price.

See how it works

Built on your existing health permit. Verified before you open. No permit, no store.

The orders your dining room can't take

Every ticket below is money restaurants leave on the table because it doesn't fit their existing table service or established brand. Pick one and start earning.

Weekly

Meal prep line

Pre-packeted containers, ordered during the week, picked up Monday. Same kitchen, a completely different buying occasion, zero overlap with dinner service.

Daily

End of day deals

The trays that didn't sell by close, listed at a price that moves them. Win-win for everyone: regulars get the alert and a great deal, plus the food gets eaten.

Weekends

Heritage specials

The food your kitchen crew and chef grew up on and your positioning won't allow. Give it its own name and its own following.

Seasonal

Holiday pre-orders

Thanksgiving sides. Game-day trays. Valentine's dinner kits. Batch-cooked against a known order count, picked up in a window you set.

Family

Family trays

Feed six for the price of two entrees. Your dining room can't do that math. A batch-cooked pre-order storefront can.

Run it from the pass.

You're not sitting at a laptop between services. Neither is your second online food concept.

Phone-first by design

Quickly set up new dishes or relist ones that sold out before, choose how many servings are available, and post with one click.

Orders by SMS and WhatsApp

A text hits your phone the moment an order lands, so you always know your batch count without opening anything.

Fully bilingual, truly

Your second online food concept, ordering, and text notifications run natively in English and Spanish. Your customers order in the language they prefer, and so does your team. Not machine-translated, built that way.

You're not starting from zero. You're expanding.

“From the team behind Nonna's Trattoria.”

That one line is your unfair advantage. Your regulars, your email list, your Instagram, the table tent by the register: every channel you've built for your restaurant can launch the new concept on day one. A side project from a kitchen people already love feels like being let in on a secret. The new brand borrows your credibility instead of starting as a stranger.

Built like the rest of your business: properly

Your permit, finally visible

The new brand is unknown, but your health permit isn't. Every store on Permitted Cooks carries a verified mark customers can see, so a name they've never heard of still reads as a real, inspected kitchen on the very first order.

Your money, untouched

You set your price and keep all of it. Customers pay a small service fee on top. Payouts run through Stripe directly to your bank.

Your list, owned

Every customer who subscribes to your new online brand joins a list you can message with SMS and WhatsApp announcements. The following you build is yours, not ours. Plus we provide you with a full marketing kit on day one.

So. What would you cook?

If you had an answer before you finished reading the question, your new second kitchen already exists. It just needs a name.
