More than 1,000 people attended the fourth annual Tucson Culinary Festival this month.

The event at Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, 7000 N. Resort Drive, was a sellout and about double last year’s attendance, says Norma Gentry, spokeswoman for Tucson Originals, the group of independent restaurants that sponsored the event.

• The winner of the festival’s Margarita World Championships was Cuvee World Bistro’s vanilla.

• The most original margarita was Zivaz’s hibiscus.

• The people’s choice winner was Pastiche Modern Eatery’s watermelon margarita.
