Founded in 2016, TEEMTONEfai has long been a sought-after dessert collaborator for fashion brands including GUCCI, LV, and LOEWE, thanks to its bold colors and eye-catching, highly buzzworthy creations.

A Retro Moment on Upper Lascar Row: A 3D Golden Dragon Is the Latest Photo Spot
Upper Lascar Row was chosen for its irreplaceable old Hong Kong charm. Inside, the space blends nostalgia with a clean, modern edge: deep brown wood-paneled walls intersect with industrial-style metal materials, while bright white ceiling lights create a distinctive atmosphere where eras seem to overlap.
Once inside, your eye is immediately drawn to the carefully crafted 3D dragon wall installation. With the bold, imposing style of Hong Kong’s 1980s heyday, the golden dragon creates a striking contrast with the avant-garde ice cream designs and will likely soon become a popular photo spot all over social media.
Sea Salt Green Sichuan Pepper and Da Hong Pao? New Limited-Edition Flavors That Challenge Your Taste Buds
TEEMTONEfai, which has always insisted on using real ingredients and no artificial coloring, is introducing a thoughtfully conceived new menu for the store opening. Alongside beloved classics such as pistachio and Lotus caramel biscuit, it incorporates Chinese teas and spices into its chilled ice cream.
If you prefer fresh flavors, try Lychee Biluochun or White Peach Oolong. For food lovers keen to test the limits of their palate, Sea Salt Green Sichuan Pepper, Da Hong Pao Sichuan Pepper Black Sesame, and the unexpected Wild Berry Lantern Chili Sorbet, with its subtle numbing kick, are sure to change the way you think about ice cream.
Rather than simply chasing an overly sweet taste, these inventive flavors, which blend Chinese herbs with local sentiment, offer an extra layer of refreshing complexity. On a muggy day, the coolness laced with tea and spice really does make you want another bite after the next.
Prices and Soft-Opening Offers
The store currently offers small cups for HK$ 50, with a choice of 1 or 2 flavors, and large cups for HK$ 75, with a choice of 1 to 3 flavors. For something more substantial, choose the HK$ 85 banana split, or add HK$ 10 to upgrade to a house-made waffle cone.
To celebrate the soft opening, the first 50 customers each day on August 21 and 22 will receive a special-edition ice cream spoon. Buy ice cream vouchers by the end of August and receive 2 free with every 10 purchased.
