Entrepreneur Kamal Shkoukani Brings 'Hot Chicken' To Milwaukee's First Ghost Kitchen

Kamal Shkoukani is a chef and entrepreneur based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

He founded Paper Table Food Company, a virtual restaurant in Milwaukee’s first digital food court. The facility comprises 10 “ghost kitchens,” virtual restaurants that fill meal orders through digital sales. Seven of the kitchens in the facility are operated by Shkoukani. He opened the shop in November 2020 and worked inside the maze of hallways and backrooms from a tiny 250-square-foot kitchen. The restaurant offers a variety of cuisines, including Halal chicken waffles, hot chicken, burgers, Middle Eastern bowls, cakes, and contemporary Middle Eastern teas. Shkoukani efficiently uses ingredients, especially chicken, cross-referencing them from one menu to another. His ghost kitchens operate from 8 a.m. to midnight, and customers can pick up their orders at the building’s front entrance or have them delivered through UberEATS, Grubhub, Doordash, and all major delivery apps.
