A Visit by Julia

Julia Child used to come to The Spot, a small burger joint in Carpinteria. She always said it was her favorite cheeseburger.

I saw her there once having lunch, a very fun and outgoing person. But we heard of many other visits.

It’s still there, at Linden and Dorrance Way. It’s not as good since it changed hands.
