Recipes & Cooking
==============
Cookstr
  Link:  http://www.cookstr.com/
 As the name implies, Cookstr is for the wannabe-chef in all of us.  The site is clean and intuitive and searching is simple. What I like best about Cookstr is the wide range of search filters that they offer, some of which include searching for recipes based on chef, author, skill level, holiday, course, cost and much more.








RecipeZaar
  Link:  http://www.recipezaar.com/
RecipeZaar is another excellent website for searching up quality recipes for your next meal. Users can also search for ‘cookbooks’ which are a collection of another user’s recipes. Also, recipe results feature ratings and nutritional information.

WhatsOpen

http://whatsopen.com/search/live/United_States/California/
WhatsOpen is a young site, but its concept is awesome. They let users see what stores, malls and shops are currently open in their neighborhood and how long they’ll be open. As I’ve mentioned, the site is rather new and the working locations are still limited to a few key cities in the US of A, but rest assured new locations are being added as the site grows.
