Since then, more than 300 eateries have been launched with the help with the crowd-funding site.

"I really think of them as being the perfect project because they are, obviously, so community based, largely by physical location, but not always," Kickstarter CEO Yancey Strickler said to Eater. "They're great ways for communities to get together and to really have a closer relationship with a place that can be a pretty central hub to that neighborhood or town."
