BOULDER, Colo., December 16, 1999 — Books-For-Cooks.com, an independent specialty cookbook site, won the Best Retail Website for Cookbooks - USA at this fall's Versailles World Cookbook Fair Award, beating out such internet giants as Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.

"Developing this site has been challenging--and rewarding--for all of us," said Marsha Berman, CFO for Books-for-Cooks.com. "It's refreshing to see that a small site can still beat the big guys."

"We are really proud to have ChefTec software featured on such a great website, " commented Brian Bennett, president of Culinary Software Services, makers of ChefTec. "Books-For-Cooks.com demonstrates the same independent, visionary quality that we try to bring to our development of foodservice software. ChefTec and Books-For-Cooks.com is a perfect fit." Books-For-Cooks.com markets over 8,000 hand-picked cookbooks and software selections for both the serious home cook and the foodservice professional. The site also offers out of print searches, staff picks, bargain books, reviews, and free standard shipping.
