The series will introduce local foods, new-style cuisines and also the joyful experiences of travel.
Delicacies will also act as a useful tour guide for travelling audiences. Due to the popularity of Smart phones and tablet computers in Hong Kong, they also plan to produce a mobile phone app for users to download, which will show all the information of the places that they have introduced.
ATV is one of the two free-to-air broadcasters, established on 29th May 1957 in Hong Kong. While ATV has impacted TV viewing in Asia and the Chinese communities worldwide, it used to be a pay cable TV service called Rediffusion. Rediffusion was the first ever TV station in Hong Kong and the first Chinese TV station in the World, and was renamed to Asia Television in 1982.
