    Watching her leaves a smile on my face. She was such a delightful lady. I do wish I could've been her guest for lunch.

    Fascinating. I'm French and a fairly good cook and still I'm learning a lot about French cuisine from an american. She was awesome!

    Thank you SO much for releasing these videos on YouTube. While I understand that they may not be good enough for broadcasting, they are the perfect media to learn and appreciate the work that everyone on the team did to create this ground breaking show. I remember my childhood watching and learning about cooking and different cultures during the 60's, and I appreciate it even more now that I've been a professional chef for the past 30 years. Thanks again!
  • These are pretty old videos but that's what makes them so special. And who doesn't love Julia? ☺

    Hold on Lady, I'll be right there. I just need to work out the bugs on my time machine 😁
  • That lady was the queen of successfully manipulating the electric coil burner! Chefs look down on those now, but she proved that they are definitely usable
  • God, I adore her. I was watching this, and I realized I was almost in a type of trance, in another world, and I was very happy.

    "Free The Orange" is my new mantra. Amazing luncheon.

    Dinner: pheasant stuffed with foie grois? Reminds me of the line from Funny Girl: "A bit of pate?" "I drink it all day!:
  • @jak8274
    I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon!
  • @DavidHall-ge6nn
    She's done it again! This mushroom dish is new to me, rather like a Frenchman got hold of a Yorkshire pudding and amped it up a notch. It looks delicious and very simple to make, so I am certainly going to try it!
