Why is our store called Claudia&Julia?Updated 7 months ago

Our name is a little tribute to a movie we love: Julie&Julia. It premiered in 2009 and tells the intertwined story of Julie, a girl who escapes her job with a cooking blog on the Internet, and Julia Child, the wonderful chef who popularized French cuisine in the United States.

Julie&Julia, starring Meryl Streep, is a film that evokes many key aspects of our project: the fantastic Julia Child, the love for traditional cooking, and the excitement of creating something of our own beyond our daily work.

Additionally, when we created Claudia&Julia, we were expecting our third child and were clear that if it was a girl, she would be named Julia. The name Claudia&Julia was also a nod to what this project meant to us: a family business made with love for our children, with the hope that it would allow us to balance our professional life with our family.

The fun part is that this third child turned out to be a boy. A fourth child also came along, but he was also a boy, so we finally have Claudia (the founder of the store) and Julia (our little tribute to Julia Child).
