Hell yeah, after watching Julie & Julia. I began to search about who is Julia Child in google & youtube, what is she look like, how she teach us cooking, what is the main ingredients that she always used for cooking, where i can get her first book 'Mastering The Art of French Cooking', and the list keep on goin each time i google about her and her recipes. She's totally a legend.
In the movie, there's a part when Julie Powell and her hubby eat bruschetta, it looks so yummy..very very yummy. I start to google about it and find the recipe, it's really easy to make. The main ingredient for this recipe is Tomato, be honest i don't like and never eat it fresh tomato, because of this recipe i dare myself to eat and taste it.
