Actually I don't quite understand the flavors of Hong Kong...like there are plenty of ice cream brands around the world, i mean REALLY famous names such as Baskin- Robbins and Ben & Jerry from the states could make to in places like Japan but could not make it in the local market. The latter has tried to set up branches in Hong Kong for a short period of time but have soon moved out and close down all businesses here. Only Haagen Dazs, curiously yet another brand from the US, survived and thrived; not only finding major success here but have almost monopolized the ice cream segment of the local food industry.
But you have to give credit to this joint for bring more to the whole of ice cream eating experience. If you are to dine in here, there is a whole list of desserts for you to choose from ranging from the classic banana split to chocolate molten lava cake with ice cream served on the side. Haagen Dazs has upgraded itself from an ice cream selling store to a high tea/ dessert go to place which is chic and classy. Although I am not a huge fan of haagen dazs' ice cream, i would still consider going there to have ice cream for dessert after having dinner with friend; that's what makes this foreign ice cream brand successful.
Speaking of the ice cream served there, I normally will have caramel biscuits and baileys; there caramel biscuit and cream flavor has chunks of crunchy biscuit bits which make it a delight to eat whereas the baileys is creamy but I wish there could be more alcohol in the taste.
All in all, for an ice cream joint to be successful, i think Haagen Dazs has established a good example in adding the classy element into the formula which makes your everyday ice cream store more special read more
