We love afternoon tea - there's a bit of pomp and ceremony to the whole thing, taking your tea to the next level. But if we had one criticism for the ritual, it would be that it can sometimes be a little samey.
We're always on the lookout for new and different afternoon tea experiences, and the Garden Afternoon Tea at the Intercontinental Dublin certainly fits the bill.

What you're looking at here is raspberry-flavoured ladybird choux choux, chocolate twig ganache, mango, vanilla and passionfruit bumble bee Pannacotta, lime leaf cake and butterfly vanilla orange tart.
