Queen of the kitchenJul 22, 2010 I was in my 20's when I first began watching Julia Child on PBS back in the mid 60's and was amazed at her skills.To be able to get this series on DVD is a blessing. by the way , my first meal back then was boeuf bourguignon.
grew up with JuliaMar 29, 2010 I grew up in my mother's kitchen and with "The French Chef" on public television. Julia was and still is very entertaining. I remember laughing out loud when we saw her with scenes such as the dancing chicken, which unfortunately is not in either volume. I enjoy the dvd (both volumes one & two) as entertainment and educational. I always remember her techniques as well as picking up new ideas. She is charming, funny, and educational. Young and old will enjoy her wit and knowledge.
Love that Julia!Feb 21, 2010 I highly recommend this set of DVDs. Watching the Julia who I remember from my youth was such a joy. And the dishes she prepares are still outstanding. Kudos to whoever decided to release these shows. There never was, and never will be, anyone like Julia Child. Watching her perform some of her finest is a wonderful experience that can be enjoyed by the entire family!
Very Happy with thisFeb 08, 2010 This is a fabulous collection of "French Chef" episodes -- including the all important boeuf bourgignon. It was my friend's favorite gift this year and has been part of her often repeated story of discovering Julia and the boeuf. But there's so much more. With so many episodes, this collection is really a bargain.

Julia Child- The French ChefJan 28, 2010 I was inspired by the movie Julie & Julia to find out more about Julia Child . As I'm an Australian she wasn't a household name so to find discover her cooking sessions was very exciting. Watching the cooking classes you realise her quirky voice and personality were perfectly portrayed by Meryl Streep!! Aside from all of that the DVD is a delight to watch. Julia makes things seem so simple. Watching her techniques has been very useful and I now have greater courage to try her recipes in "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" !!
