Tavolino – the cooking app & your recipe manager

Stop wondering "What should we cook today?" Tavolino is your cooking app for recipes, meal planning, and the shopping list. Manage your recipes, import them from a photo or link, generate dishes with AI, plan the whole week, and discover recipes from the community – powered by artificial intelligence.

Your Recipe Collection Manage all your favorite recipes in one place – with photos, ingredients, step-by-step instructions, and calories per serving (AI estimate). Sort by category, properties (low-carb, one-pot, meal-prep …), cooking time, or rating.
