Kickstartin'

East Bay community kitchen and pop-up space Kitchener has hosted any number of awesome events over the past four years, and now they're using crowdfunding to start a snack bar. Founder Sophia Chang seeks $25K to convert the space's office into two walk-up food windows, which could be used by a rotating cast of food businesses offering juice, mac and cheese, empanadas, Vietnamese tacos, and everything in between. (SOMA's now-closed The Window worked along the same lines.) Donate $20 for a 16-pack of ready-to-bake Brazilian cheese rolls, or drop $200 for 24 meals at the bar. [Kickstarter]
