Its not only án endless source of new recipes but one can also contribute their own culinary creations for others to enjoy. One could improve a bit on the interface for easier navigation but all in all I love both the app and being part of this world-wide community ❤️

My dream to show my cooking skills to the world has been fulfilled through Cookpad. Here I have learned new recipes and presentations. I am proud to be a part of one of the world's largest cooking sharing platforms. There is full support from the team and admin, which doubles the passion. Daily cooking in weekly and seasonal new challenges. So new options are available. Many thanks to Cookpad_in(English)team, admin team, everyone for supporting and encouraging Homechefs.

I believe everybody should install this app if you love to cook (or have to, like me 😄). Very user-friendly and useful. No bugs or annoying ads so far, I hope it stays that way. Kudos, Cookpad!
