She was such a lovely person and inspiration to many. I had the privilege of interviewing her and it was a joy. She is my favorite subject of all time.
Julia Child is pure magic! I love watching her old black and white cooking show (the original)…it was very real, no edits and she was a boss lady even under pressure. How lucky for your Pops to have met her. Thanks for sharing OP, this is fantastic!
My dad was a meat cutter, and she used to come into his market and ask for specific cuts, and he would occasionally do deliveries for her as well. He raved about her. Better than the time Whitey Bulger used to come to the market. Haha
I worked at a hardware store near where she lived about 25 years ago and had to assemble a bookshelf for her. Ended up doing quite a bit of handyman work for her after. Nice lady, my mom was so jealous of the whole thing. Yeah I know, cool story bro.
Doooope 💪🏾🔥😎
What’d he cook? Did she like it?
Nobody cooler than Julia
Julia was the very definition of big-boned. I imagine an alternate universe where she made her fortune as a female pro wrestler.
She got a raw deal when they fired her from Top Gear.
Your dad was rubbing elbows with culinary royalty. Nice!
Thought she was holding a pistol for a second there.
Wow!!! I can’t imagine how that day was for him! All the prep leading up to it as well. That’s so nice she took a picture with him.
Is that a…. Gun?
Is that John Besh?

I thought she was holding a gun!
My hero.
Covid really did a toll Conan
She was certainly a handsome woman
“Customer has some notes for the chef”
My aunt got to cook with her in Julia’s kitchen too!
That’s the Joker.
Read caption too quick – thought it was my dad AS Julia child, thought it was some old Halloween party picture 😬
I need to know the story behind this picture!
My tired brain misread this as “after cooking her” and I had some SERIOUS questions for a millisecond.
Legend. Bless.
Totally thought that was a gun
Let him cook
Is your dad Wolfgang Puck???

So glad your father had this experience.
Handsome woman.
Sometimes, Jeremy Clarkson goes too far with his jokes.

Nice jaw line on the both of them!
for a minute there I thought ‘Jesus Axel Rose is looking rough’.

She’s got a gun!!!
Jonathan Bower.
Her and Justin Wilson are the coolest TV chefs ever
One of my true heroes, she was remarkable.
Which one is your dad?
your dad looks alot like MJ fox
I don’t think I’ve ever thought about it, but have to say Julia Child could beat my ass easily.
We grew up North of Harvard Square, and she lived around the corner. This was in the 1970s.
One snowy winter day my brother came running inside with big news.
“Mom! Mom!”
“Julia and I have the exact same snow suit!”
Sure enough – she was outside her house – shoveling snow – in a big red snow suit, full bottom to top zip up, just like my brothers.
Any chance this was in Cambridge MA?
I cannot imagine a bigger plaudit for a chef.
That’s andre the giant not Julia child. Come on do your research.
You sure that’s not Leatherface?

Why doesn’t Julia Child, the largest of the celebrity chefs, not simply eat the other chefs?
I used to perform cooking shows for my parents in the style of Julia Child, with the voice and everything, to crack them up. I absolutely love her.
