Turn Your Home Into a Restaurant!

Have an extra space in your home? Why don’t you turn it into something yummy?

A huge trend these days is turning small spaces into an instant restaurant. These are called pop-up restaurants or those food establishments that appears out of nowhere. The spontaneous vibe of the pop-up set up lures many foodies.

If you have the cooking skills and the budget, then turning your home into a pop-up won’t be that hard. In this day and age, you no longer need to have an extra property just to start a restaurant. With just a bit of redesigning and organizing, you can easily turn your home into an instant restaurant. Here’s how:

If you don’t have enough space in your home then try creating a mobile kitchen a.k.a. a cart filled with everything that you need. Plates, utensils, food, ingredients – stock them all up in a single cart. You can simply open this stall right in front of your house or at your backyard. Just make sure that what you’re cooking up is not as complicated as sinigang.

2. Use your backyard

Customers would have an easy access to your restaurant and it will be so easy to advertise it since it’s right in front of your home.

If your passions are books and coffee then this idea is for you. Turn your library into an instant coffee-slash-book-for-rent restaurant. Wooden tables, dimmed lights, jazzy music, and of course, a good brewed coffee will turn your makeshift restaurant into a hit.

Bed and breakfast is a sure way to go especially if your home is located to tourist spots like Baguio and Tagaytay. Spare some of your house’s room and turn them into lavish rooms that guests will love. Whip up yummy breakfast meals downstairs just for your guests.
