About
Hi! I love food, but I like the *idea* of cooking. Kind of like anchovies. Good concept, savory little guys packed with umami. I like the idea of them. (Caesar salad, yes please. Anchovy on the rocks? Mmm, hard pass…)
When it comes to cooking, maybe you’re like me. I love it when I have (or had) time, but the reality is that it’s a daily struggle to just throw things together. I miss the enjoyment of making food and in the post-pandemic, I found myself also missing the gatherings that came with that.

Because we believe that, together, we can create social experiences that reflect the inherent communal and connective nature of sharing a meal together.
Anchovy Community Guidelines
We're all about mixing, baking, and shaking up a storm in the kitchen while building a vibrant community of food lovers. To keep the vibe as delightful as a perfectly seasoned dish, we've whipped up some guidelines for all our users. Let's make sure everyone's experience here is as smooth as your grandma's gravy!
Be a Peach, Not a Lemon: Kindness is the main ingredient in our community. Treat others with respect, and remember, behind every username is a real person with a taste for joy. Sour attitudes? Not in our kitchen!
Keep It Fresh and Clean: Just like your food, keep your posts and comments fresh and clean. Inappropriate content? That's like fish bones in a soup - definitely not wanted. Keep it savory, not unsavory
Respect Secret Recipes: Privacy is a big deal, like a secret family recipe. Don't share personal info about yourself or others. And remember, taking someone's recipe and calling it your own is a kitchen no-no.
No Spoiled Ingredients: Hate speech, harassment, and bullying are like spoiled ingredients; they ruin the whole dish. We're all about celebrating culinary diversity and unity, so let's keep it tasty and harassment-free.
Cooking Up Fun: We're here to have fun, learn, and share our culinary journeys. Challenges, theme nights, and food trivia are all part of the menu. Dive in, participate, and add your own spice to the mix!
If you spot anyone not following these guidelines or stirring the pot in the wrong way, don't hesitate to report it to our team using this form. We're here to ensure Anchovy remains the best place to connect, share, and savor the joy of cooking together.
