But as I was going through the cards, I realized I was learning so much information about food I never knew before. This app is a great learning tool for anyone who has ever picked up a fork or spoon! ### 5/5 — Lots of fun *2011-10-20* Neat little app that teaches in a fun way! ### 5/5 — Efficient *2011-10-19, version 2.20111010* Does what it says! I thought I knew a lot, guesa i could learn ALOT more! Great learning app! Easy interface. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2011-09-29* Fantastic app for any and all folks who wanna know their stuff when it comes to the kitchen, restaurants or food in general. Awesome way to get comfortable with the basics of gourmet cuisine. Definitely gonna show it to my friends. ### 5/5 — Complete with great descriptions *2011-09-29* This is a well made app for learning all about foods. Lots of terms, in depth descriptions. . I think I knew it was a high quality app when I got to the "Chiffonade" card under the "Cooking Terms" deck and they included a reason for why using a sharp knife is crucial (so you don't bruise the leaves obviously!) I love the Sushi deck where they list all the Japanese names for fish (even some pretty obscure pieces) and then the type of fish as we know it in English ### 5/5 — Now we're cookin! *2011-09-29* This app looks incredibly thorough so far...going to see what the girlfriend says when I hook up a gourmet feast this weekend. ### 5/5 — The bomb diggedy *2011-09-29* How is this app not like the most popular app on iTunes? Every human being who eats food, ever, should be required to use this. So much information. More valuable than spending money on an entire college class about food. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t access it *2020-03-27* I downloaded onto my iphone11. Connected to Facebook, but it says error when I try to open it. Very frustrating. Hope it resolves do I can change my rating ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2020-01-06, version 3.20171005* Buy a cookbook and actually learn something you can cook! ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE.......LOCKS UP! *2012-02-01* Just a learning app. Nothing more........that is if it doesn't lock up on you. Glad it was free. I'd be angry to pay for info like this. Recipes NOT HERE! Oh sure they tell you ingredients.....not how to cook anything gourmet at all. Terms and definitions, things you can find in the FREE dictionary app. Don't waste your time or space on this one............ ;~(. WAS FOR ED TO GIVE IT ONE STAR. I DID RATE IT AT ZERO STARS....... ### 1/5 — iPad *2012-01-07, version 2.20111010* Make full screen on iPads ### 3/5 — Good content - Needs images *2013-06-23* Good content but would be much better with pics or even hyperlinks for the subject, ingredient or technique. ### 4/5 — Great *2021-01-14* Would like multiple choice answers ### 4/5 — Great Learning App *2012-02-08* Great way to learn about cooking terms. ### 5/5 — PERFECT *2025-05-08* Simple, user friendly, great info!!! Worth the upgrade, too. ### 5/5 — Great *2024-05-22* It helps me get terminology down and I am learning a lot from it. ### 5/5 — Thank you 😊 *2023-07-17* Thank you 😊 to teach me how to cooking with spice and herbs 🌿 ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I can say enough about this *2023-05-18* Thank you 😊 ### 5/5 — Great! *2019-10-09* I’ve been cooking for nine years and I most places never ever taught me the terminology for culinary this app is magnificent ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-09-02, version 3.20171005* This app is really great, just note that you don’t get much out of it without the in-app purchases. ### 5/5 — Outstanding Information *2019-02-09* This is an outstanding way to learn on the go! ### 5/5 — Culinary education *2018-06-13* Awesome app for someone who wants to get some education in culinary ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-06-06* Excellent tool for learning ### 5/5 — Very intuitive and helpful *2015-07-27* Not too expensive to buy additional card sets; easy and fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
