New Territories
Hong Kong-Inspired Bubble Waffles & Ice Cream
With New Territories, super-trendy Hong Kong bubble waffle ice cream comes to New York in a big way. Founded in a tiny shop on the Lower East Side by Peter Mei in 2016, New Territories transports you to the cafes of Hong Kong, where ice cream is served atop sweet, eggy bubble waffles that are crisp on the outside and cakey on the inside; and milky iced tea gets a fun and chewy addition of tapioca boba.
It may be super-photogenic, but don’t call it Instagram bait: the ice cream that’s tucked into these waffles and blended into overflowing milkshakes is hand-crafted in-house daily in small batches using only the highest-quality ingredients, and it’s rich, super-creamy, and available in flavors like Jasmine Tea, Tokyo Banana, Cookie Dough Oreo, and even Salted Egg Custard that have New Yorkers lining up around the block!
