The Secret Garden Cafe can easily be called a hidden gem in Dubai, serving some irresistible confectionery, secret mocktails and fresh juices. But what caught our attention was their one-of-its-kind coffee menu. Apart from the classic espresso and cappuccino, the cafe serves a signature coffee – the charcoal latte. The coffee is made of activated carbon, milk and vanilla extract and is divine! Don’t get intimidated by the carbon. It has a whole lot of goodness wrapped in.
