Elephant Grounds Debuts Golden Zest Ice Cream Sandwich

Elephant Grounds (EG) is at it again — this time with a refreshing, limited-edition twist on dessert.
The beloved hipster joint has just opened its brand-new Tsim Sha Tsui outpost at Tsim Sha Tsui Centre, and to mark the occasion, they’ve launched a special ice cream sandwich for the sweltering summer season.

Available from July 16, 2025, and with limited quantities available each day, the Golden Zest Ice Cream Sandwich is a collaboration with none other than Chef Smita Grosse, Hong Kong’s first woman Executive Pastry Chef, and it's a rare gem you won't want to miss.

Creamy cannelé ice cream inspired by traditional Bordeaux flavors of vanilla and custard is perched atop a crumbly Florentine cookie base, layered with zesty orange jam and a swipe of smooth dark chocolate, and finished with crispy golden tuile and cannelé chunks. A delicate gilded butterfly tuile on top nods to the energy of summer and adds an Instagram-worthy flair.
This limited-time treat is available at all Elephant Ground locations across Hong Kong, so make sure to catch it before it flies away!
And if you’re dropping by for more than just dessert, their weekday Lunch Set (available from 11 AM to 2:30 PM) is a hearty and satisfying deal, at HK$140. You can get your pick of one of their most popular mains, a coffee of your choice, and a mini-Hokkaido milk soft serve to round things off on a sweet note.

The set includes comforting classics like Linguine Carbonara, crowned with a velvety onsen egg, and Rigatoni Bolognese made with rich, homemade meat sauce. The Fish Fillet Sando hits the spot with breaded sole, wasabi kewpie, and mixed cabbage slaw.

For a lighter option, the Torched Salmon poke bowl is both filling and fresh, while burger lovers can dig into the indulgent EG Burger with a wagyu patty, cheddar, and fries—with plenty of add-ons like bacon, egg, or even a double patty if you’re feeling bold.
Those with a sweet tooth can savor the Pancake Club set at lunchtime, priced at HK$120 and available from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM, exclusively at the EG TST Center branch. This pick-me-up includes fluffy OG pancakes with whipped cream and maple syrup, plus your choice of coffee or tea. Add on an EG Exclusive Coffee for just HK$10 or a House Made Mushroom Soup for HK$30 and indulge to your heart's content!
