Eatropica Cafe Menara 1 Sentrum Nu Sentral Brickfield Kuala Lumpur

Hidden Gems Eatropica Cafe at Nu Sentral Brickfield Menara 1 Sentrum

Eatropica Cafe which is located on the 6th Floor Lobby of Menara 1 Sentrum Brickfields has commenced business for the past 2 months. One of the objectives of Eatropica Cafe is to provide a place for a quiet meeting or casual meals or just chilled with a nice cup of coffee.

Unless you worked at the Menara 1 Sentrum you probably would not have heard of Eatropica. Eatropica Cafe is located next to the popular Nu Sentral Brickfields. To go there all you need to do is go to the 5th Floor of Nu Sentral which is the floor of GSC Cinema, there is a lift after the GSC cinema which you can take to the sixth floor. Once you exit from the lift take a left turn and walk over sky bridge into the next building which is Menara 1 Sentrum. You will see the cafe on your left-hand side.

Eatropica Cafe serves a variety of dish ranging from Western dishes to local fare. Their set lunch is really value for money and comes with a reasonable large serving portion with quality ingredients especially the sirloin steak which is grain fed aged beef.

Starting off you can choose some of the local fares offering. The one that caught our eyes was the Curry Laksa (RM15.00) which is served with yellow noodles, julienne chicken meat, cockles and bean sprouts. If you order this dish from 12 to 3pm; you can order a complimentary drink of either an ice lemon tea or a lemonade drink. We like the thick curry broth with a strong flavour of Santan taste.

Or for fans of rice; you can try out the Classic Nasi Lemak With Chicken Rendang & Traditional Condiments (RM15.00) served with a choice of White Rice or Brown Rice. If you order this dish from 12 to 3pm; you can order a complimentary drink of either an ice lemon tea or a lemonade drink. The chicken rendang has a nice flavour and suited with the condiment and the fragrant rice.

For the western fare, you might want to taste out the Penne Carbonara (RM20.00) which is served with Turkey bacon and parmesan. If you order this dish from 12 to 3pm; you can order a complimentary drink of either an ice lemon tea or a lemonade drink.

Next, we tasted the Pulled Lamb Burgers (RM25.00) which is served with feta cheese, tomato and tzatziki relish. This dish is served with salad and fries at the sides. An order of this dish between 12 to 8pm; you can order a complimentary drink of either a coca cola or an ice lemon tea.  I personally find the taste a little too gamey for me but I suppose fans of lamb will relish on this.

For the mains dishes, our first order was the Melting Morrocan Lamb Shanks (RM36.00) which is topped with Homemade apricot chutney and sweet potato mesh. We like this as the lamb shank was braised until a tender texture that literally melts in your mouth. The taste was nicely paired with the naturally sweet taste of the sweet potatoes.

For a taste of Japanese, Eatropica serves a Maguro Tuna Steak (RM45.00). Weighing at 180g it lightly pans seared and served with Wasabi Aioli.

Our last mains for the review is the Grain Fed Sirloin Steak (RM74.00) a 250g Australian Beef which have been aged for 21 days; rich in flavour and chargrilled to your liking. Served as medium rare it was a real delight to eat this special steak which was lightly marinated and pan seared. There are a few choices of sauces that you can choose from; which includes Mustard, Garlic Sauce, Black Pepper and Mustard Hollandaise sauce. We decided to play it safe with an order of the popular Black Pepper.

For Dessert, there are a few offers which Crispy Banana Fritters served with Palm Sugar and Vanilla Ice Cream (RM15.00).

Sticky Date Pudding with Butterscotch Sauce and Vanilla Ice Cream (RM15.00).

and finally the Matcha Magic Chia Seed with Almond Pudding and topped with Whipped Cream (RM15.00).

This is then followed by a warm appetizer which is the Seared Haloumi and Breaded Camembert. Fans of these cheese are in for a treat, as these 2 differing cheese with 2 different cooking style which has a different taste and texture are both served in a dish. It is served with grapefruits, pickles and laid in a sesame dressing; that adds a tangy sourish taste to enhance the flavours of the cheese.

For the soup; we were served the Wild Forest Mushroom with Truffle Forth. We love the strong aroma when the soup arrives at the table. The truffle forth further enhances the full mushroom flavour and taste of the soup. Eaten with a soft milk bun with every dip into this warm soup is a real delight.

After 3 dishes with differing flavour; we were served the Mango Sorbet which is our palate cleanser. It is served on an ice cube which resembles a leaf. The Mango Sorbet was very fruity in taste and topped with cubes of mango

For this Vegetarian Set dinner; we were served with 3 entrees; the first of which is Chilled Soft Tofu which is served with shaved fennel and yellow pepper coulis which were perfectly matched to the bland tofu.

The second entree is the Maple Glaze Pumpkin; This is served with the grilled King Mushroom and blanched Spinach layered upon the smashed pumpkin. A special taste which marries the naturally rich flavour of the pumpkin with the ingredients. Drizzles at the sides are freshly roasted sunflower and melon seeds to give a crunchy texture to the dish.

The final entree Steamed Dumpling. The filling is the cooked shredded turnip which has a sweet taste.

For the main course; we were served with Yam Rice. Cubes of yam are used to enhance the flavour of the glutinous rice which is flavoured by the soy sauce with poached asparagus, sago and top with a piece of thinly sliced lotus root.
