What do think is the best name for a crowdfunded popup restaurants?

popchef.com popvenue.com wanderingchef.com subletchef.com sublettable.com ephemeralchef.com kettle.com

Just a little feedback.

popchef - makes me thing of popcorn. I prefer chefpop to pop chef.

popvenue - doesn't really bring restaurants to mind

sublettable = forgettable to me for some reason.

Of those you listed I like kettle.com or wanderingchef the best. If you're still open to new ideas, I'll toss a couple in the ring.

heretoday.com - This looks a little strange.

subtlechef.com - rolls off the tongue a little easier than subletchef.

Also, a little more description about your idea would be cool if you have time.

Don't use "EphemeralChef"; nobody knows what "ephemeral" means.

It seems very unlikely that you'll get "PopChef.com".

"Sublettable.com" sounds like a real estate site.

The heat death of the universe will happen before you get Kettle.com, which is also a major US consumer brand.

I am not sure if any of these are taken, but they might be after I post them:

topchef.com

coolchef.com

hailtothechef.com

magiciankitchen.com

uberchef.com

terrifickettle.com

chefnomads.com

I would avoid the name 'popup' as it is associated with virus infections. Try cart instead.

chefcart.com

artistchef.com

topcartchef.com

chef4u.com

travelingchef.com

chefvenue4u.com
