Our Story
Born from a love of food, community, and the idea that the best meals come from someone's kitchen — not a factory.
Jack
Co-Founder
Jack grew up surrounded by incredible home cooking — the kind you just can't replicate at a restaurant. He always believed that the most talented cooks weren't in Michelin-starred kitchens, they were right next door. Passionate about food culture and the power of local communities, Jack wanted to build something that gave those unsung culinary heroes a proper platform.
Dom
Co-Founder
Dom has always had a soft spot for the stories behind food — the grandmother's secret recipe, the family dish passed down through generations, the neighbour who makes the most amazing jerk chicken you've ever had. He's driven by the belief that food is one of the most powerful ways we connect as people, and that technology should make those connections easier, not harder.
The Idea
It started over a conversation — probably over a good meal, naturally. Jack and Dom kept coming back to the same frustration: incredible home cooks all around them with no easy way to share their food with the world. Meanwhile, people were settling for expensive, processed takeaways when something so much better was just around the corner.
TopCook was born from that simple but powerful idea: create a trusted platform where passionate home cooks can earn from what they love doing, and where food lovers can discover authentic, fresh, home-cooked meals from real people in their community.
No factory kitchens. No corporate chains. Just real food, made with love, by your neighbours.
Our Mission
To connect communities through food. To celebrate the cooks who've never had a stage. To make genuine, affordable, home-cooked food accessible to everyone — and to give talented home chefs the recognition and income they deserve.
