- The Dairy Farm Ice Cream is an iconic ice cream in Hong Kong, with roots tracing back to the "Dairy Farm Company" established in 1886. Originally a company producing milk, this ice cream has become a beloved traditional dessert among locals over the years. An interesting point is that it uses a unique recipe designed to suit Hong Kong's climate, offering a smooth texture while being resistant to melting in the heat. As the author notes, its somewhat nostalgic flavor provides many Hongkongers a moment of returning to their childhood. This ice cream, which revives scenes from the past, reminds people of the hot summer days spent on the streets of Hong Kong in earlier times. After escaping into the nostalgia of Hong Kong, the blog author likely faced a second shock, returning to their everyday life, realizing they are not a celebrity or anything of the sort.
