On August 15th Julia Child would have turned 100.

She continues to inspire us at The Inn at Little Washington every day. Her books provided the foundation for Patrick's culinary career and her legacy is honored by our Julia Child Suite (Room 1) where she usually stayed when she visited us.

Would Create a Stir...

But we never dreamed it would be such a sensation. We're left with no other option then to extend the party for 2 additional nights.



You're invited to join us on Thursday, August 16 or Friday, August 17 for our continuing Homage to Julia

Julia Child Week at Le Bec Fin

Posted by Aubrey Nagle on August 7th, 2012




As Eater reported earlier, Le Bec Fin will be hosting a week-long special dedicated to Julia Child‘s 100th Birthday. They may be the only local restaurant participating in Julia Child Restaurant Week (Today through August 14th) but in the city’s defense, did anyone else even know this was a thing?



Child’s birthday would have been August 15th so throughout the week leading up to it chef Walter Abrams has created a special menu for the downstairs room, Chez Georges. Most of the menu items were chosen from Child’s famous TV show The French Chef or her cookbooks. Dishes will include French onion soup, ratatouille, lobster Americaine, bouillabaisse, short ribs, and crepes Suzette, chocolate rum almond cake, and crème brulee for dessert.

On the day of August 15th the restaurant will be serving a special three-course meal for $60 or with wine pairings for $85, a steal especially for Chez Georges standards. The meal begins at 6:30 p.m. (reservations required, of course) and will end with a birthday cake celebration.

For reservations call 215-567-1000.
 
Nice -- she celebrated many birthdays in Washington Va. Last stay at the Inn we stayed in her room.
 
I have a pink mandavilla plant too-I need that tower for it to thread its way up. Just beautiful, John
 
Indeed she is a nice dining companion!

We closed the place down and Patrick came over to chat, which is aways fun. We told him that while almost everyone was in a festive mod, we noticed one table where zero communication was involved in the consumption of that fabulous feast. He said there are a million stories including nasty breakups, unrequited proposals and general louts. The stony silence we observed seems quite pleasant in comparison.

One breakup involved the car keys being flung at the lady and the "gentleman" demanding a taxi be called. There are no taxis in these parts.
