Clive found boldfood.com on blogcatalog and requested to be a friend, which isn’t uncommon in and of itself, but after checking out his career, one of his videos (with a great tip!), and his Website, Cooking with Clive, I’m happy to pump up his site! Clive has been training to be a world-class chef since he was a young child. He’s made it, although he’s not as well known as many of the others.

Check out our new foodie links page with hundreds of links to the more popular foodie Websites online. Compiling the list took many hours and a lot of Web surfing. Hopefully you’ll spot some familiar stomping grounds and some new sites to stomp on over to as well.
If you have a foodie site and would like us to consider adding it we’ll require that your site has some traffic (per the Alexa toolbar) and that you add a link back to our site from somewhere on your’s.
As for the sites listed…, we were particularly amazed at how many forums there are for foodies of all flavors, as well as, the enormous number of blogs! It begs to question how anyone finds time to cook after all that blogging.

This visit with Jamie Oliver by New Zealand TV gives us a glimpse into what makes this special chef unique. His garden is to die for and has provided inspiration for me to give my own garden a try once again. He offers some important advice on how to put together a great salad as he effortlessly pulls together what is certainly a delicious and unique salad.
Even more special then his food is his heart. In 2002, he combined his two ambitions: to open a top class restaurant and to give disadvantaged youngsters a chance to gain professional culinary training. Five years later, Fifteen is still achieving both, improving and expanding all the time.
Above: One of the fifteen success stories.
Jamie Oliver doing what he loves.
