The Hong Kong Tourism Board on Monday hailed the success of the Wine and Dine Festival, saying the event recorded 10 percent more visitors compared with the previous year.

The board said the five-day festival welcomed about 155,000 locals and tourists, including those from the mainland, the United States, Australia, Japan and Southeast Asia.

Hong Kong also welcomed three international cruise liners as the festival was held, with passengers checking out the more than 300 booths featuring fine cuisine and drinks from around the world.

The board, meanwhile, said the celebration is not over as it holds its Taste Around Town campaign with 400 restaurants and bars offering extensive deals until the end of November.
