DaKCMan gets it!

Further evidence that DaKCMan is (as we've all suspected for a long time) in fact awesome.

I've heard mixed reviews, but there is an El Bulli documentary that I'm really dying to see. Seriously, one of the biggest regrets of my life is that I never got to eat at El Bulli.

And, yes, absolutely Thomas Keller belongs on the list! Of course, he doesn't have his own Food Network show where he cooks off against regular people, nor does he travel around investigating diners, so... we should probably stop talking about him.

I would tend to agree. Of those listed, it has to be her. She changed the game.

I'm not sure how innovative she was. Her gig was learning how to do French cooking in France and coming back to the US and getting American women to cook that way. I probably call her one of the most inspiring cooks, not innovative.

Maybe not innovative in terms of her cooking or her recipe designs. But the way we cook in the kitchen and eat today was largely influenced by her. And things like the Food Network may not exist (or at least may not be as successful) had it not been for Julia Child.

Food culture today owes a lot to her.

Agree on all counts. She was awesome. Especially in her early b&w shows. Later doing the 'Cooking with Jacque' or 'Cooking with Julia' shows not so much, in fact she was down right scary at the end. Loveable but scary.

I'd characterize her as more of an amateur evangelical than an innovator.

Kind of like whether Bob Ross was the most innovative painter.
