ORLAND PARK, IL — Orland Park just became a "flavortown." Well-known Food Network celebrity chef Guy Fieri has brought his new delivery-only restaurant chain to the village.
Flavortown Kitchen is expanding across 24 states, including Illinois, popping up in already established restaurant kitchens. It is a "ghost kitchen," meaning it's a delivery only establishment, ditching the traditional sit-down restaurant concept, according to Deadline.
The publication reports that Flavortown has partnered with Robert Earl, the founder of Planet Hollywood, in a company called Virtual Dining Concepts, which trades in virtual kitchens to help existing restaurants earn more money from celebrity-branded concepts.
