Three days of incredibly garlicky wonderful food Gilroy celebrates its 31st annual festival. Gilroy's Garlic Festival was one of the most organized and comfortable food festivals I have ever attended. Once you park a free shuttle takes you to the festivals grounds. Over two tons of garlic was used to host this event by Christopher's Ranch.
During my tasty adventure I tasted garlic popcorn, garlic egg rolls, garlic ice-cream, garlic corn, garlic guacamole, craw fish, shrimp etoufee, fried green tomatoes and gourmet's alley's Shrimp Scampi. Garlic, Garlic, Garlic was coming out of my pores! What I realized is once I tried the garlic ice-cream I couldn't tell that there was garlic in it. Most people that tasted the garlic ice-cream loved it or could do without it. I enjoyed watching the cooking demonstrations and people watching. Next year I hope to compete in the competition and give Gilroy a taste of something special from Jasmine's Kitchen.
