A movie about starting a BLOG, about finding your passion and do something with it. A few friends told me when they watched this movie, they thought of my blog.
I finally got to watch the movie and felt very hungry afterwards. As Gen X person, I did watch Julia Child on TV when I was growing up. If my memory serves me right, Julia Child was a big woman on screen with a very deep voice. I remembered she was quite messy in the kitchen and was fun to watch. But back in those days, French cuisine was very expensive and not for common people like us!
During my visit to Napa Valley in the summer of 2008, we visited COPIA in the heart of Napa. It was a wine, art, cooking center made possible by Robert Mondavi and few others. There were wine classes and art exhibitions, and a restaurant named Julia’s Kitchen on the ground floor. The restaurant was named after Julia Child and would always serve a few dishes from Julia Child’s original recipe.
I was surfing the web hoping to find some photos of COPIA and the restaurant, but very sad to find out it had closed its door in Nov 2008. Well, glad that I had the chance of visiting COPIA and dined at Julia’s Kitchen and still remembered the center vividly in memory.
