Calling MMore Than A Nut, near Rajagiri Hospital, Aluva, Kerala, a coffee shop reduces what founder Ubais Ali envisions for the brand. For context, everything in the coffee shop is made of coconut or from the product of a coconut tree — the tables and benches, tableware, lampshades and the walls, and even the dust bin and garden lights. “It is not without reason that the coconut tree is referred to as the Kalpavriksham [wish-fulfilling tree],” says Ubais passionately as he shows us around the cafe.
