a national treasure
Review by Lauren on 04/12/21 review stating a national treasure
I bought these for my husband last christmas, as his parents, who were immigrants from France after WW11 watched the show regularly. They were spectacular cooks. At the time we were teenagers and didnt pay much attention to Julia Child. They did. Eating every day at their house was always fantastic. We started watching the DVDs and they justify every accolade recieved. She presents recipes for very good meals for the american housewife with ingredients you can get from any grocery store. Last night we made the onion soup with crouts. Today we make a potatoe dish from this first DVD. She is funny, happy and well informed on her subject. Thank you for making these available. I like her because she does not do elite or, special. You dont have to do or have anything special to cook well at home for your family. Nor does the budget have to be extrordinary. She cooked all these meals on an electric range. Enjoy!

I loved the 2 DVDs tremendously. Not only is she interesting to watch but shes naturally hilarious. My only question is where are the other episodes? Seems like some are missing.

I bought it more for entertainment than for information. She is so down to earth. I love to watch her flub and grunt...cant see the foodshow hostesses today doing that.

Growing up I watched this show with my mom. I was excited to see that it finally made it to DVD. Hairstyles may have changed, but these shows are still a great learning tool. Julia Child truly had a flair for teaching while making it fun and entertaining!

Back to basics
Review by Tomm on 07/17/20 review stating Back to basics
These programs brought back memories when not many of my friends knew of French Foods. I was in Virginia Tech graduate school and we used to meet every Saturday to relax and talk about the week eating and joking together. I used to look every week to her program and practice what I learn the following week, as budget permitted, so modifications were made but the meal [pot luck] was excellent.

Delightful!
Review by Mimi on 07/17/20 review stating Delightful!
This is like having Julia in the room! The choices of dishes prepared are perfect, and her style of presentation inimitable. I have enjoyed every minute of the entire tape! The quality of the tapes is excellent....hard to imagine the originals are 50 years old. The menu selection is very easy to use.
