I Stayed in Julia Child's Cottage in the South of France-What It's Like to Stay and Cook There
Briefly

In a garden full of herbs like rosemary, basil, and mint, wild dill was discovered and sampled, showcasing its bright, citrusy flavor. The cottage, Julia Child's former home in Plascassier, is now a culinary school, where students can experience her kitchen first-hand. The enduring warmth of her legacy is evident in the original kitchen and artifacts like her Dutch oven and souffle pans. The setting offers a unique and personal glimpse into her life as she cooked and entertained friends there.
The cottage was Julia Child's former home in Plascassier, a village in Provence, France, where she lived on and off from 1965 to 1992.
It felt like stepping into a scrapbook of Julia's life: We cooked in her kitchen, where she developed recipes for 'Mastering the Art of French Cooking: Volume 2.'
This was where Julia and Paul Child cooked, drank, and hosted hungry friends. Now, it's where six of us stood, fresh from ransacking the garden.
