Food Community Website "Common Kitchen" Launches
Medford, Massachusetts (PRWEB) November 23, 2025 -- Common Media, Inc. today announced the launch of its first single-interest community website, CommonKitchen.com. Common Kitchen allows food lovers to organize recipes in their virtual recipe box, search local restaurants in their area by menu item, tag, and user review, as well as discover new recipes, cookbooks, and food blogs through the suggestions of other members.
"There are lots of recipe-sharing websites on the Internet," said Common Media co-founder Noah W. Smith. "Each of them has different strengths and weaknesses, but they're all walled gardens; they don't allow easy access to recipes located elsewhere on the Web."
CommonKitchen.com allows its community members to bookmark recipes located on any website, from the biggest recipe-sharing sites to niche sites with only two or three posted recipes. It also allows visitors to track and review printed recipes found in magazines and cookbooks.
By allowing the bookmarking of recipes posted on food blogs, as well as offering users the chance to host their own food blog on the site, Common Kitchen hopes to reward the efforts of thousands of food bloggers around the Internet. "These bloggers collectively post as many recipes as many of the larger food sites, and we are making it easier for that work to be discovered," said Smith.
CommonKitchen.com also offers its users the chance to search and review local restaurants. Unlike most restaurant-review sites, Common Kitchen allows users to rate individual dishes on the menu, enabling a search-by-dish feature unique to the site. "This allows our community members to direct each other to the places where their favorite dishes are done best," explains Smith. "If a restaurant which would otherwise be rated poorly has some standout items on its menu, those should be allowed to shine."
"We hope CommonKitchen.com can be a true community of users sharing what they love about food," said Smith.
