This <strong>October 23 to 26</strong>, Hong Kong’s Central Harbourfront turns into Asia’s biggest open-air food and wine playground. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>A Historic Year for Wine Lovers</strong></div><p>Every edition of Wine &amp; Dine brings something special, and 2025 is no exception. This year marks the 170th anniversary of Bordeaux’s legendary 1855 Classification, with rare bottles opened just for the occasion. At the Grand Wine Pavilion, wines selected by global expert James Suckling will be on pour, allowing festivalgoers to taste vintages that are typically only accessible to serious collectors.</p><div><br/></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758428065273HKTB_Hong Kong Wine and Dine Festival_1027_02.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>Global Chefs Take the Stage</strong></div><p>Food is just as much as the star. The Tasting Room, a pop-up restaurant created exclusively for the festival, will host Michelin-decorated chefs from London, Beijing, Seoul, and Hong Kong with one-of-a-kind menus. Normally, these restaurants are booked months in advance. At the festival, you get them all in one weekend.</p><p>Among the highlights: Chef Andrew Wong of London’s two-Michelin-starred A. Wong; Chef Cheung Yat Fung of Beijing’s three-star Chao Shang Chao; and Korean celebrity chef Jung Ji-sun of Tian Mi Mi, familiar to Filipinos from Netflix’s <em>Culinary Class War.</em> They will be joined by Hong Kong’s own Menex Cheung (China Tang) and Jayson Tang (Man Ho, JW Marriott Hong Kong), blending international prestige with local culinary excellence.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758428217935Hong Kong Wine _ Dine Festival Tasting Room.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>Gourmet Experiences You Can’t Book Anywhere Else</strong></div><p>For those who dream of dining in hard-to-book restaurants, Gourmet Avenue will be a revelation. Imagine finally savoring Alvin Leung’s bold creations from his two-star Bo Innovation or Anne-Sophie Pic’s delicate artistry from Cristal Room. For one weekend, these coveted tables all come together in one place.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>A Journey of Flavors and Discovery</strong></div><p>Festivalgoers don’t need to be wine experts to enjoy the event. A new self-guided pairing experience makes it easy to discover how wines like Chardonnay, Merlot, and Shiraz complement different flavors. Beyond Europe’s classics, guests can sample new flavors from Belgium, Norway, and Austria. For the first time, rising Chinese wines—fast becoming critics’ favorites—will also claim their place on the global stage.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758428116493HKTB_Hong Kong Wine and Dine Festival B.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><br/></div><p>For Filipinos, the festival is not just a feast but also an easy escape—an experience worth flying for. With visa-free entry and multiple direct flights from Manila, Cebu, Clark, and other major cities, Hong Kong has never been closer. In just two hours, you can swap your regular weekend for an evening of food adventures, clinking glasses under city lights, and memories found nowhere else in Asia.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1758428323395Wine and Dine Hong Kong.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:left"><br/></div><p style="text-align:left">Photos courtesy of <strong>Hong Kong Tourism Board</strong></p>
