Everybody can appreciate homemade food, but not everyone can call themselves a chef—fortunately there are those who can cook well and like sharing what they make with others, and you can take advantage of this and find home cooked meals with the Homefed app.
Homefed recently launched as an iOS app for the Toronto area and it's a lot like Airbnb in the sense that there's a side for guests and another one for hosts. With the mobile app you can search for meals by price, rating, menu, location and time, so that a home cooked meal is always right around the corner. Much like Airbnb, you can also message within the app to get to know your host before you show up for dinner. Instead of hunting for the best restaurants in the area, your very next meal could help you get acquainted with your neighbor.
