Next Gallery: Boston Dishes Worthy of Julia Child Previous 10617641 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Andy Cohen is back in Boston on his old college stomping grounds -- and with his old college roommate. Previous 10617686 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Padma and Andy strike a pose before the culinary competition gets underway. Previous 10617646 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child And Andy brought a few more friends -- some students from Emerson College who will be providing part of the ingredients for the chefs' dishes today. Previous 10617651 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child That's right, the chefs will be tackling perennial favorite dorm room food -- ramen. Previous 10617656 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory picked Helen to supply his ramen accouterments, hopefully her stack of supplies can help him move beyond the packaged goodness. Previous 10617661 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Padma looks very prim for someone who is about to dive into some ramen. Previous 10617691 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child We can't even imagine how much more trouble Andy and his roommate would have gotten into if Padma was also part of their college crew. Previous 10617666 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Andy's roommate says he had a reputation as a "late night trickster." Somehow we are not surprised. Previous 10617671 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child On the opposite end of the surprise spectrum, the chefs were shocked when Jacques Pepin came into the stew room to talk Julia Child. Previous 10617676 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Jacques remembers how Julia brought French cuisine to the American public, and how she inspired his own cooking. Previous 10617681 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child We like to imagine that Jacques never travels without a bottle of wine to share. Previous 10617696 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Doug knew that when it came to cooking for Jacques, you had to have the basics down pat. No tricks. Previous 10617701 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory decided to forgo the traditional braise and make his veal in the pressure cooker. Previous 10617716 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Tom and Jacques drop in to check on the chefs, and Doug lets them know he's going big with foie gras. Previous 10617711 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child George explains his use of new techniques to reinterpret one of Julia's favorites. Previous 10617721 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory doesn't usually cook with bacon and butter, but he's not going to mess with the classics for Jacques. Previous 10617726 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child The chefs take a moment to select some beautiful herbs for their dishes. Previous 10617731 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Melissa surveys the stems. Previous 10617736 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory didn't impress the chefs with his Julia Child impression, but perhaps his herbs will be more dazzling. Previous 10617741 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Mei's twist on Julia's duck l'orange included a little five spice. Previous 10617746 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory greets the judges and presents his coq au vin. Previous 10617751 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Mei presents her duck, and crosses her fingers that her French training comes in handy. Previous 10617756 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child The judges enjoy the beautiful scenery and gorgeous dishes. Previous 10617761 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Tom loved the license that Mei took with her dish, and the judges think it'd be worthy of the dish Julia wished was her last meal. Previous 10617766 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Doug's foie gras was bold, but the judges thought his bold dish was undercooked. Previous 10617771 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Look someone's taking our picture! Previous 10617776 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Look at that handsome panel! Previous 10617781 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Gregory was worried that his seasonings had gotten to strong over night, but the judges thought he did well! Previous 10617786 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Jacques explains what it was like to work with the lady herself. Previous 10617791 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Tom and Julia shared a birthday, so she'd often celebrate at one of his restaurants. Previous 10617796 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child As George mentioned, at this point any mistake could cost you the competition. Will it be his time to go? Previous 10617801 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Melissa's short ribs were a little over-done. Will that be enough to send her home? Previous 10617806 Next Cooking for Andy and to Honor Julia Child Padma looks concerned. What could have her so upset? Previous Pause Next 1 of 33
