Royaltea 皇茶天下 has penetrated into Penang market and the queue of people at the outlet in Icon City has never ceased. Royaltea boasts about the usage of royal cheese milk cream that introduces a pleasant creamy taste into the milk tea, then leaves a smiley "moustache" on your upper lip. On a random Saturday night, we popped by the outlet at 12am and surprised to see there outlet was full of crowd, leaving only a few tables unoccupied.
When we thought it was easy to derive at the choice of drink at Royaltea, the extensive menu has caught us in surprise. It has Royal Cheese, Royal Coffee, Milk Tea, Fruit Tea and each of it drilled town to more variants.
However as the popular drink here is Royal Cheese, we gave a try to paint our upper lip with the "moustache". Follow their instructions to enjoy the tea, i.e. must not use a straw and drink with the cup slanted 45 degree to your lips.
Taste wise, the drink is creamy due to the presence of cheese and not sweet. We felt it has overturned somehow overturned the concept of milk tea as public tend to perceive milk tea as sweet. Royaltea can be considered as a decent alternative to hang out with friends for a cup of tea in fact. Nevertheless, the price did not come cheap, as a cup of Royal Cheese Green Tea cost us RM 13.90.
For those who prefer some bites while chatting with friends, there are some snacks or cakes available. When we asked whether the cakes are house made or booked elsewhere, the staff could not answer our query. Anyhow, the Triple Chocolate Crepe taste was alright.
