Wine, dine and shop off the beaten path in Hong Kong (Intro)

I am always amazed at how there are always new things to see and eat in Hong Kong. During a recent sponsored trip to Hong Kong (thank you Hong Kong Tourism Board!), I had the fortune of attending the opening night of the annual Wine & Dine Festival 2014, as well as visit some places which are new to me.
