The beautifully produced documentary, "Julia" is now playing in theaters - I encourage you all to run into it.

Before this week, Cinema Society, Chef Daniel Boulud, and I hosted a reception celebrating Julia Kid and the new documentary directed past Julie Cohen and Betsy West, and executive-produced by Ron Howard, Alex Prud'homme, and Brian Grazer under Imagine Amusement and CNN Films. The outcome was held in New York City. Chef Daniel and I curated a wonderful card filled with many of the delicious dishes Julia taught u.s. all how to brand in her landmark books and telly shows, including Beef Bourguignon, Irish potato Gratin Dauphinois, Moules à la Marinière, and Pâté en Croûte. And for dessert, nosotros enjoyed Apple Tart Tatins and Chocolate Mousse. Information technology was an award to co-host the gathering and to celebrate the life of such an incredible chef and instructor -- Julia Child.

Here are some photos.
