Take a Bite Out of Social Networking
Oh, the world wide web. Classic case of ‘the more you know, the more there is to learn.’
While perusing the internet the other day on a never-ending hunt for more fantastic, local foodie blogs and Web sites – I stumbled across a new gem that not only has local flare, but immense global potential. If you’re a foodie with a passion for social networks and all things culinary, you are sure to LOVE BiteClub!
BiteClub provides an authentic, inside-out look at the restaurant and bar industry and the culture that defines it – and it’s easy to use too! BiteClub appeals to four distinct audiences that share a similar passion for food and beverage: restaurant and bar workers; food service vendors; culinary students and foodies.
If you’re a foodie like myself, it’s a great place to meet other foodies, borrow recipes, post local culinary events and link to foodie news that you’re interested in. Think of it as your own mini food blog, with insta-supporters!
And the best part? Sonny Mayugba, CEO and Co-Founder of BiteClub, is a Sacramento Native! Now if that’s not delicious, I don’t know what is.
