Wuxi's foreign residents had their cake and voted for it too on Sept 24, as the city held a Foreigners' Favorite Wuxi Pastry event at the Wuxi Grand Hotel.

Sponsored by Wuxi Municipal Publicity Department, the event aimed to promote Wuxi food and culture to foreigners and celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival.

The lucky participants got to sample delicious pastry dishes from ten local restaurants, as well as food from three foreign-run restaurants, which were selected by an online vote before the competition.

More than 200 people from China and abroad gathered to enjoy the tasty food and watch cooking demonstrations by local pastry chefs and performances by Wuxi folk artists.
