UBER EATS REMOVES RESTAURANTS 

Uber Eats is set to remove thousands of online-only restaurants from its app. The Wall Street Journal reported that the company is introducing a new set of standards for virtual restaurants, also known as "ghost kitchens." These restaurants are listed on an app, but they don't have a storefront. They often run out of the kitchens of existing restaurants, warehouses, and sometimes even parking lots. Under new regulations, they are required to have menu items that are at least 60 percent different from their parent restaurant menu. They also need to maintain a rating of at least 4.3 stars.
