Open Source Food is a community site for food lovers and cooks, both amateur and professional. If you're looking for a little inspiration, you can browse through the beautifully photographed images or search the site for recipes. It's a little baffling that you have to click on the "food" tab to get a search bar, but since the site is as focused on community as it is on food, maybe that makes some sense.
Registered users can upload images and recipes, comment on others' recipes, ask questions, or add suggestions. Open Source Food is like a Web 2.0 cookbook, and we mean that in the best possible way.

wow, thanks for the awesome review - glad you like the site! The cool thing about niche social networks is that now with the Facebook API they can interact with a big social network, so it's perfectly possible to have the best of both worlds. Right now OSF has a simple Facebook app but I'll expand on it soon. Facebook users can find it here:

This might be of interest to you. There're several food-related social networks out there, some quite popular. Bon Appetit of June (p. 36) lists (in this order) http://www.foodcandy.com, http://www.bakespace.com and http://www.extratasty.com. If I got my facts straight, bakespace is the oldest one.
