By Jaime Gonzalo
As Ratatouille’s Chef Gusteau once said, “Anyone can cook”—an adage which holds more truth today, thanks to technology and the abundance of food apps on the cloud.
There are apps that help you twist up recipes, apps that help you find the best place for a midnight snack, and even apps that livestream cooking shows—indeed, for foodies, what a time to be alive.
Let’s take a look at some of the best food apps that 2016 has to offer, so far.
