The “Stinking Rose” (a.k.a. garlic) is said to be the world’s most widely used and loved food. We attended the ’08 Delray Beach Garlic Fest to sample the eclectic collection of culinary treats available at the event’s Gourmet Alley. This family friendly festival took place on the grounds of the historic Old School Square at 51 N. Swinton Avenue in Palm Beach county Florida.
