By Chef Suzanne Tracht, Jar, Los Angeles
I was working as a chef a Campanile when Julia came in for lunch. I believe that it was Julia's 80th birthday. I had recently given birth to Max, my first child. He was only 7 weeks old and was visiting the same day that Julia was there so we were able to capture this celebration. The photo means a lot of us and always gives me inspiration when I'm cooking at Jar.
