Are you talking about a restaurant kitchen?

If Yes

You have health boards to think about

fire department

and your menu

your menu will shape what equipment you need

money

No, it's basicly for a food boutique, with farm raised produce, from my farm.

You should be fine- if you are doing no cooking on sight, then you would fall under retail grocery laws.

A good place to start:

You will need to mainly worry about gaz (if you're using it) and ventilation. Those 2 things will also cover the main work areas where any heat and gases will be produced.

As well, you will need to consult the public health site for safe food storage and handling requirements.
