Available at Messina’s Pottinger Street shop and at Little Bao’s SoHo and Causeway Bay outlets, the two flavours – Lil’ Bean and Se’same But Different, are inspired by the local food scene. The first one is a creamy delight infused with fermented black bean and served with a shortbread while the second one is a toasted white sesame gelato topped with a crunchy chilli crisp.
