It's the last event of Brisbane's first Delectable food festival today,
Food Bowl, and the city Botanic Gardens is alive with food lovers.
An initial problem with 'Delectable dollars' (rumour is that they ran out) has been solved and there are plenty of happy people tucking into great food. There's heaps of seating available with large groups gathered around tables or sitting under the trees.
And the gardens are looking just perfect.
Here's what, and who I saw.
