Looks nice, and is very clean design - good images that certainly made me hungry, amd definitely I topic that interests me!

First and foremost, get your English checked as it is a little ropey - particularly the title

"Food are everywhere, only thing is whether you have try it or not."
Should be:
"food is everywhere, only thing is whether or not you have tried it yet"

And there were other typos throughout.

I would also suggest from a usability point of view that you perhaps have your main navigation menu on the left and higher up, as it gets a little bit lost where it is. This just sticks with generic conventions and users know instantly how to look around your site.Also, with an advert at the top right, I would automatically assume that the rest of that column would be adverts, but it is infact a mixture of adverts and navigation which is a little confusing. These two features should be completely separate.

I did find it a bit strange that the first text I saw was a fact about an onion! You have TWO adverts at the top of your page that push down the 'about us' on the right and the onion story - IMHO the top of the content area should have some text/image/headline that immediatley announces to the user who you are and what you do.

Also your recipes sounded very good - perhaps have a direct navigation link to an a-z of recipes that is added to regularly - that would certainly encourage me to bookmark a site!

1. I linked to your site.
2. It could make me more hungry.
3. Banners of so many different sizes, and colours are a little disturbing to me. Think form and colour. If you have a garden, the lowest flowers are placed in the front and the tallest in the background. And is it possible to let them load simultaneously or fewer at the top. Place your brand (and one picture) at the top
4. Rss .92 Rss 2.0 Atom. Great!
5. One of the better sites that has been for review here.
6. I have not looked at code.
7. The quality of your English is not so important to me if I am hungry :-) :-), but it may be the last species that makes it even better.

Where in Asia are you from?

1. You should have better contact info. If so, you would get a free link to the home page.

2. I linked to your software and forum page :-)
