California's 2019 law allows homeowners to certify their residence as a Microenterprise Home Kitchen Operation (MEHKO), enabling them to operate a legal restaurant from home.
Riverside County was the first to adopt the MEHKO ordinance, which has led to a surge in home-based food businesses, benefiting diverse community members.
Home cooks have historically operated in the shadows, and the MEHKO initiative aims to change that by providing legitimate opportunities for culinary entrepreneurs.
With the MEHKO program, aspiring chefs and veteran restaurateurs can now legally monetize their cooking skills, reflecting a significant shift in the food business landscape.
