Johanne Killeen

Johanne Killeen Photo Ever since the culinary team of Johanne Killeen and George Germon opened their restaurant in the early '80s, delighted customers have been flocking to Italian-inspired Al Forno to sample their extraordinarily honest, made-to-order, delicious cuisine. Graduates of the Rhode Island School of Design, both independently traveled to Italy where they fell in love with, above all else, the food. Upon returning to the States, the duo finally met in 1975 while working in a Providence restaurant called Joe's Upstairs to support their artistic careers. Falling in love with each other and the art of cooking, they opened their own thirty-seat restaurant, Al Forno, and decidedly switched career paths. Sharing accolades from diners and awards from the James Beard Foundation, Al Forno has been called the best casual dining restaurant in the world. In the show IN JULIA'S KITCHEN WITH MASTER CHEFS, Johanne Killeen and George Germon join Julia Child twice, first preparing Dirty Steak With Hot Fanny Sauce, and then preparing a sumptuous Triple Citrus Meringue Tart.
