JULIA, based on the life of the "French Chef" television star and cookbook author Julia Child, is back for a 2nd season on Max. This is our 2nd JULIA podcast conversation with wine expert and culinary strategist JANET CAM. Janet Cam was the co-founder of Washington, DC's storied Le Pavillon restaurant, the first nouvelle cuisine restaurant of its kind in the U.S. In the podcast we talk about the challenges for Julia and her aspirational fans in obtaining the best ingredients to recreate classic French dishes, women in the culinary industry, and Julia and Janet's journeys and adventures through wine and food in the U.S. and abroad.
