5. The Floating Chocolate At Masala Library By Jigs Karla

This is a dessert that levitates! The Floating Chocolate is not called ‘floating’ for no reason. The dessert uses magnets and nitrogen that literally make it float mid-air. The dessert consists of chocolate truffle, made with 70 per cent dark chocolate, with a gooey chocolate centre. Nitrogen fumes are passed through the centre of the truffle using molecular gastronomy. The dessert is part of the restaurant’s 12-course tasting menu, which costs between AED 215 and AED 245 per person.
