I used to talk with a owner/operator of a place that was perfect for that sort of operation. They weren't running it as a ghost kitchen but the potential there was off the charts, mostly due to it effectively being almost all kitchen space so not paying needlessly for a front of house. Being a sole operator though they didn't want to tweak their hours to make it happen.

Magic Bird is likely the best known of the local ghost kitchens. I cannot recall where it runs from but it seems to be a name lots of people have heard of.
Also "Porno Pizza" was likely Winnipeg's first ghost kitchen. Not sure where it was run from but it was definitely not a front of house presence. The porno piece was basically them putting an "adult" picture on (or was it in?) the box? They made the local news some years back when they launched, and not because they were a ghost kitchen.
