Inside Julia Child's DC
Julia Child is a lot more associated with Paris, or maybe Cambridge, Massachusetts, than with DC. But the legendary cook and writer actually spent some of her most important years in a little house in Georgetown, scrounging for ingredients in the much less foodie city of the 1950s. Her Washington years are the subject of a story in the new issue of Edible DC, and the magazine’s editor, James Whitman, is here to tell us all about it.
