Committing to our “We Love To Care” philosophy, we strive to provide impeccable service and excellent facilities to all guests that have adventured to our establishment. To the memories made and experiences shared, we celebrate our 10th year anniversary by paying tribute to what resonates with us the most since childhood. By creating the “GO LOCAL” Afternoon tea at Green, this is a token of appreciation to all of our loyal patrons’ continuous support and creating iconic moments unlike any other at Hotel ICON.
Led by our Acting Executive Chef Danny Ho, the “GO LOCAL” Afternoon tea is locally inspired by the ageold tradition in Hong Kong where locals would sit down for an afternoon break and enjoy timeless classics. Each cultural treats and delicacies has been carefully chosen. Freshly made in-house every day, all savoury and sweet delights require meticulous detail to craft all these themed items in Hong Kong “Cha Chaan Teng” style.
To start the gourmet journey, The Hong Kong Style Pineapple Bun is something that you simply cannot miss. Created in the shape of a traditional pineapple bun, the tropical mango flavour has perfectly blended in with the crispy cheese choux. Inspired by everyone’s favourite street food –Fish Ball, the Deep Fried Peanut Ball is beyond indulgence to all diners! The chewy texture at first bite and the exotic peanut flavour at the end just takes the whole dessert to another level. If you are in love of a sweet vintage, the Coconut Milk Pudding with Red Bean visualised as the traditional steamed rice cupcake – Put Chai Ko will never disappoint.
And where would be without the flaky pastry crust that makes the Hokkaido Egg White Milk Tart with Bird Nest. Filled with silky Hokkaido milk custard, a taste of nostalgia and undeniable joy comes when the sweet and savoury flavour fuses together perfectly. Why not bring it all back with a touch of class that is the Chrysanthemum Tea with Goji Jelly, a traditional Chinese dessert infused by chrysanthemum tea with a modern and luxurious twist with Goji berry and gold leaf that makes everyone tip their hat with pride.
If the sweet treats are our Yin, then these gourmet savouries are our Yang and what better balance to share than with our Baby Abalone Tart with Caviar, Roasted Duck Roulade with Foie Gras and Hoi Sen Sauce, “Siu-Mai” with Crispy Garlic and Chilli and Chinese BBQ Pork with Chinese Rose Wine Skewer.Every single dish has a distinctive Hong Kong element that leaves you wanting more every single day of the week.
