Culinary celebration of Hong Kong's top restaurants
Chefs, restaurateurs and hotel executives gather for launch party of the latest edition of the guide
Hong Kong's culinary elite came together yesterday to celebrate the launch of SCMP's 100 Top Tables 2017 - A CEO's Dining Guide, now in its fifth year. The event, held at the Hong Kong Maritime Museum in Central, was attended by chefs, restaurateurs and hotel executives from Hong Kong and Macau.
Opening the Top Table awards presentation was South China Morning Post Publishers CEO Gary Liu, who congratulated the winners.
"My wife and I are new transplants to Hong Kong, having moved here from our home in New York City at the start of January. This city has already shown us a great deal of its treasures, [such as] the magnificent hikes, soaring penthouse vistas ... and the food … oh, the food.
"We have eaten it all," Liu said.
"I want to thank you, personally, for creating and sustaining such culinary vibrancy in our city. It is such an honour to celebrate this achievement with you today."
