A virtual food hall and ghost kitchen is opening in Fairview: Called Revolving Kitchen Fairview, it'll open in Fairview Town Center, at 146 Town Pl., in what used to be a clothing store. According to a release, it'll open on October 22.

This is the long-awaited spinoff of the original Revolving Kitchen, a commissary kitchen founded by entrepreneur Tyler Shin in Garland in the midst of the pandemic in 2020, when food halls and digital kitchens surged as a way for diners to still get restaurant food without having to dine in a restaurant. They also help food entrepreneurs launch a business without having to invest in a brick and mortar space.

To make it seamless, Shin created a virtual food hall app that allows customers to order a variety of dishes from multiple restaurants and pay a single delivery fee.

Fairview has been designed as a community-driven space featuring 34 commercial kitchen rentals and business amenities, including two conference rooms, a coworking space and kitchenette, and expansive kitchen storage space.

Kitchen spaces range from 260 to 1,100 square-feet, featuring more than 20 dining concepts that can be ordered for takeout or delivery.

The cuisine ranges from bagels to pizza to vegan eats, as follows:

• Brooklyn Bagels: Classic New York-style bagel with cream cheese or a hearty bagel sandwich
• Chanko Nutrition: Nutritious and flavorful farm to table meals, ideal for those focused on fitness and well-being
• Chitos Authentic Mexican Restaurant: Family owned and operated with authentic Tex-Mex menu
