TikTok is venturing into a territory quite different from where it has become a
household name. The social media giant is launching delivery-only restaurants
across the US in March.

The Chinese-owned short video sharing platform is teaming up with Virtual Dining
Concept to deliver viral foods across cities in the US. TikTok is seeing a lot
of views for food and recipe-related content—racking up millions of views.

With more than 1 billion people using TikTok worldwide, it is easy to understand
why the Chinese-owned company is venturing into the restaurant business. Per
Bloomberg, the co-founder of Virtual Dining Concepts Robert Earl says about 300
TikTok restaurants are planned across the country for the launch. The
partnership is expected to birth more than 1,000 of such restaurants by the end
of 2022.

Earl, whose company has a successful business partnership with MrBeast Burger,
says he foresees a repeat of similar success with its new partnership with
TikTok. “Look, you have a platform with a billion viewers monthly who are
constantly engaged, as the numbers show,” says Earl. “It’s the first time
there’s a brand like this out there—an audience of hundreds of millions of
people.”

Some popular restaurants have been penciled down by TikTok, and they include
national chains Earl owns, including Buca di Beppo and Bertucci’s. The TikTok
Kitchen menu will be based on the platform’s most viral food trends, including
baked feta pasta, pasta chips—cooked pasta shapes, smash burger and corn
ribs made from peeling off sections of corn and coating them with spices and
Parmesan. Prices, according to Earl, will be “comparable to other Virtual Dining
Concept brands.”

In a statement, TikTok said profits from the restaurants would be given to
creators of the menu dishes and to support promising culinary talents on its
platform. “I’m doing it as a business, TikTok are doing it for development of
that category. It’s an investment in their business,” says Earl per Bloomberg.

TikTok is outperforming YouTube in average monthly watch time in the US.
The ByteDance-owned app has emerged from all its troubles and is forging ahead
as the social media app to beat.

About this time in 2020, TikTok overtook YouTube, which was the first sign that
a new sheriff is in town. As of June 2021, the app’s user base watched over 24
hours of content every month, compared to 22 hours and 40 minutes on YouTube.
