You know who we don't hear about much these days? Julia Child. Sister restaurants
Vin de Set (
2017 Chouteau Avenue;
website) and
Eleven Eleven Mississippi (
1111 Mississippi;
website) are looking to change that. This Saturday, August 15, both restaurants are hosting a special dinner featuring the five ingredients that Child said she would want as part of her last meal. What are those five magic ingredients? Find out (plus more on Julia-honoring menus) after the jump...
The magic ingredients are caviar, oysters, foie gras, pan-roasted duck and
black-tar heroin poached pear.
If you can't get enough Julia Child, Vin de Set is preparing three-course dinner menus drawn from her cookbooks this Thursday, August 13, and the following two Thursdays, August 20 and 27. The dinners are $25 per person, tax and tip not included.
