Julia Child’s birthday is coming up (she would have turned 104 on Aug. 15), and a group of chefs is planning a special celebration of her life at Puritan & Co. at 1166 Cambridge St., Inman Square. Next Wednesday, Puritan & Co.’s chef-owner Will Gilson (above) and guest chefs will look to their favorite recipes from Child’s “Mastering the Art of French Cooking’’ and offer guests a multi-course meal inspired by the beloved culinary icon. Among those participating will be Nookie Postal from Commonwealth, Rich Edes of Temple Bar, Patrick Campbell of Café ArtScience, Marissa Rossi, the pastry chef at Puritan & Co., and Meg Thompson of Townsman. There will be one seating for the Julia Child tribute dinner —at 7 p.m. — and it’s available by reservation only. For more information, call 617-615-6195 or visit www.puritancambridge.com.
