Okay, let’s be real—some days just need a little drama (the good kind). Enter: Rodina Royale, Dubai Mall’s most deliciously indulgent excuse to dress cute, sip tea, and feel like royalty on a Tuesday afternoon. Or, you know, any day you feel like channeling your inner tsarina.
Tucked away on Level 4 of the ever-glam Fashion Avenue, Rodina is already known for its magical blend of Russian soul and Mediterranean flair. But now, it’s turning heads for an even more decadent reason—its newly launched afternoon tea. Think: chandeliers, couture vibes, Downtown Dubai views, and a spread so fancy, even your most refined auntie would be impressed.
A Fancy Feast, One Bite at a Time
Let’s talk about the main event: the food. We’re not just talking cucumber sandwiches here. No, no. Rodina Royale’s got syrniki—those dreamy Russian cheese pancakes—served warm with fresh berries and dollops of sour cream and raspberry jam. There’s also carrot cake (hello, frosting!), a chocolate hazelnut brownie that might change your life, and macarons so delicate they practically whisper sweet nothings.
Savory cravings? Covered. Mini brioche rolls stacked with turkey or veal ham, smoked salmon sandwiches with salmon roe and dill (because extra is a lifestyle), and classic chicken Caesar fingers that feel like comfort food with a couture twist.
Sip Happens: The Tea Line-Up
Rodina didn’t just stop at the snacks. Their tea menu is basically a world tour in a teacup. Whether you’re a traditionalist (hello, Earl Grey!) or someone who likes your tea with a little sass (Peach Blossom and Milky Oolong, we see you), there’s something for every palate and personality. Feeling zesty? Ginger Zest has your back. Berry-obsessed? Sweet Wild Berry is practically a hug in a mug.
Midday Majesty at Its Finest
Honestly, AED 250 for two people is a steal for this kind of edible elegance. Whether you’re celebrating something or just need a breather from the retail marathon that is Dubai Mall, Rodina Royale is where afternoon dreams come true—from 2 PM to 5:30 PM, daily.
So grab your bestie, wear that outfit you’ve been saving for a “special moment,” and treat yourself. Because darling, you are the occasion.
