Royal/T is a cafe, shop and gallery in Culver City, CA.
I had the day off today and spent some time in Culver City. First, lunch at Royal/T Cafe and then a trip to Surfas Restaurant Supply (please, as if I could go to Culver City without stopping at Surfas...I now have enough paper products to make over 1,000 cupcakes)
Above, Royal/T Milk Tea - black tea with a peachy flavor, brewed with soy milk. I got it iced but it is also available hot. The Matcha Tea - very, very matcha...a little too strong for me.
It is inspired by the Maid Cafes of Tokyo's Akihabara district. All the waitress are dressed as French maids.

My friend got this as part of the breakfast set ($10) along with a chocolate crossiant.Japanese potato salad
This was my favorite part of the meal; Japanese potato salad is total comfort food! It uses Japanese mayo and includes carrots and cucumbers. Yummy!From the gallery
They have a large space (10,000 square feet) that includes the gallery space, store, cafe, VIP room. It is a very nice space with open ceilings.
