Thanks to everyone that came out for this years Convivial Pursuit. It was an absolute success with around 160 people having a great time while testing their food trivia skills.
Sauce Magazine ran away with the win in the final rounds having brought a table full of ringers (also called employees).
Special thanks to Mike Sweeney for doing so much work to make the event a success, Ron at Mad Art Gallery for letting us use his beautiful space, Sauce for helping to promote the event and J. Pollack Photography for taking over 100 fantastic pictures which you can not only view, but also purchase here.
