大人餐厅 Esquire Kichen @ Tropicana City Mall

I always love eating 大人餐厅, Esquire Kitchen during my childhood. The first Esquire was opened in Atria, Damansara Jaya. I believe those who are around my age and stay in PJ during childhood, will definitely tried the Esquire in Atria.

I remember that i used to ask my mom to bring me for dinner in that restaurant. One week At Least once! Although we always ordered the same thing, but I love the food very much back then, exclude the noodles. Every time we go for dinner, we have to queue up.. long queue!!

Till, when Esquire was taken over by a company and merge with Nam Heong(another place where chicken rice was the best, back then, it was the past already). The standard dropped badly for both restaurant and we did not go there anymore.

5 years later, i went back to Atria, could still see some of the waitress that used to serve us, they're aged already.. Sat down with my mom, ordered back the same thing, it did not have the taste back then, too salty/overcooked. *sigh*. As i can remember, few weeks later, i went to the Esquire in Subang Parade.

Yet, another big disappointment. I'm not going back there anymore.
Till recently, when i read the newspaper, noticed that Esquire just opened in Tropicana City Mall. Decided to give it a chance, since its newly opened.


The new atmosphere, no longer have the 'old' feel.

There's alot of people having their dinner here compared to Esquire in Atria.

干扁四季豆, too salty. But it taste ok.

小龍包, skin was kinda tough/dry. Don't compare with Dragon-I. There's no soup inside. An ancient 小龍包.

麻婆豆腐, the chilly taste totally cover the sauce's taste

That's the dish i usually/always order. There's still one more dish which is 蚂蚁上树, funny name right? Its a dish where 冬粉 is cooked with taucu and chilly. But that day the dish is out of stock.

The service was disappointing. We changed our seats to the sofa after ordering and told one of the waiter. When the food came, the waiter stare at our previous table and went to the kitchen when we keep calling him. Only he realize. 2nd and consequent dish also same thing, different waiter, doing same thing.

Would come here for the 2nd time, disappointed by the service.
