Hong Kong’s First Cognac-themed Bar Opens at ifc Mall

PONG ifc will feature signature cognac cocktails and the
world’s leading beer pong gaming entertainment, PONGConnect

Hong Kong’s first cognac-themed bar has opened at ifc Mall in Hong Kong. PONG
ifc will feature the world’s first and most popular digital beer pong gaming
platform, PONGConnect. PONG ifc will hold its grand opening on 2 May 2018.

As Hong Kong’s first Cognac-themed bar, PONG ifc offers an extensive selection
of premium and classic Cognacs. The bar will feature signature concoctions
designed by PONG ifc Bar Manager Jody Ho, a veteran Hong Kong mixologist who
has honed his craft under the tutelage of famed mixologist and bar owner
Antonio Lai.

In addition to premium brandy, PONG ifc will offer a number of signature
cocktails, including:

–       Secret Garden,
a sweet and smooth gin-based blend with Jody’s secret flower
syrup that is
decorated with rose petals; it is the best-selling selection following the bar’s soft opening.

–       The
bar’s most
creative cocktail, the vodka-based WOW, which combines yogurt and cheese,
and is topped with
Xiang Piacha, a jasmine scented tea.

–       The
Modern Sidecar,
a cocktail that is also
made with cheese,
is highlighted by Jody’s secret
ingredients and orange salt.
Orange salt is a rare ingredient that
is not widely available
in the market.

“PONG ifc
addresses Hong Kong’s continuous demand for upscale bars with a touch of
innovation,” PONGConnect Founder and CEO, Mr Steven Yip said. “PONG will provide
a novel form of entertainment to ‘North Central’ with a fun factor that’s never
been offered in the area. PONG ifc also introduces the wildly entertaining beer
pong games offered by PONGConnect to a different market in a more sophisticated
setting.”

PONG ifc will offer daily set
lunches, a free flow champagne lunch on weekends, and cater to private parties
and special events. PONG opened its original location, Pong Zing!, in
Causeway Bay in 2015. PONGConnect beer pong tables are now used in 15 cities in Southeast Asia and
Europe.

Beer Pong
is a popular game in American pop culture. In view of the growing popularity in
Asia, Hong Kong tech company Atalon Ventures successfully introduced
PONGConnect, the first real-time digital beer pong system, to the world. The
PONGConnect system comes with smart sensors and automatic scoring system to
provide players with customized records and real-time rankings. With the
company’s designated mobile apps, users can compete with PONGConnect’s 100,000 players
around the globe, indulging themselves in the online to offline gaming
experience.
