They are called commissaries, not 'cloud kitchens', not 'ghost kitchens'. Commissaries are not new, they are used all the time in the restaurant industry. If you've had food from a food truck or caterer, then that food was likely prepared in a commissary.
Giving hip new names to old tech is not doing anyone a favor. Preparing food in a commissary is a sound, established business model. The idea doesn't need any fluff, delivering food prepared in a commissary, rather than a restaurant, makes perfect sense. The benefits are, lower real estate costs, shared labor, fewer stops for delivery personnel, and the ability to quickly change food offerings & experiment.
"113751. “Commissary” means a food facility that services mobile food facilities, mobile support units, or vending machines where any of the following occur: (a) Food, containers, or supplies are stored.

The Food Corridor is a (very terrible) piece of software that allows bookings for kitchen space, so they probably focus on the ones that work from public kitchens for that reason, but lots of them have dedicated kitchens or rent from a church hall or VFW.
