Ptitchef is a French cooking site where home cooks publish their recipes. Each one gives its ingredients, its steps, often photographed one by one, its preparation and cooking times, its cost, its nutrition figures and the ratings its readers left. The site files its recipes under a tree of ingredient families, and publishes many of them in several languages.
This server connects a chat client to that site. You can walk the tree of categories, search the recipes by dish or by ingredient, browse a category
