Al Rawsha is a well-known Lebanese restaurant at the heart of Kuala Lumpur city centre. Located at Jalan Damai, off Jalan Ampang, Al Rawsha is easily accessible if you are working or staying some where near KLCC or Jalan Ampang.

What is good in Al Rawsha? For meat lovers, I was told that the Lamb Mandy is a must try. The Lamb Mandy is served with rice and the portion is BIG. For ladies who do not eat much, it is recommended for sharing between 2 persons.

For those who is not a fan of red meat but prefers chicken instead (like me), the Chicken Mandy is recommended. I tried it and it’s awesome!

Both the Lamb Mandy and Chicken Mandy come with separate gravy in 2 separate bowls. Basically, those are the tomato chutney and yogurt, and trust me, to experience the real delicious taste of those dishes, you must have them with both gravy!

Al Rawsha is really famous for its lamb dishes actually. If you would like to try other preparation of lamb dishes, their Grilled Lamb and Lamb Chop are good as well.

The Grilled Lamb and Lamb Chop do not come with rice though. Instead, they are served with Pita Bread or the Kebab Bread. But be warned, they are both served in BIG portions.

What I love most about the food here is the preparation of rice served with their dishes. The rice tastes nice. Something like bryani rice minus the oily taste. Hehe. Yeah the rice here somehow tastes healthy. It is dry (not oily at all) and it is yummy!
Oh and let’s not forget the choice of drinks there. I love the Al Rawsha Cocktail. It is a mixture of fruits (including banana & probably mango and more fruits) with yogurt. The drink looks so colourful and pretty too. So yes, this is a must try.

Besides fruit juices and yogurt drinks, there is also ’sparkling juice’ as I like to call it. The Barbican, that’s it, a carbonated malt drinks that comes in different flavours such as strawberry, lemon, mango, etc. If you have never tried one before, make sure you try it here.

If you need direction to go there, I can give the direction here ;)… Provided that you know where KLCC is. Hehe. Yup, from KLCC (Make sure KLCC is on your right hand side and Bangunan Getah Asli is on your left hand side), just drive straight. You will pass Avenue K and Corus Hotel on your left. Go further straight until you reach the traffic lights near Ampang Park. Ampang Park will be on your left (you can see McDonalds there) while Nikko Hotel and Menara Citibank will be on your right. After the traffic light, take the 2nd turning on your left. Just go straight until the end of the road and turn right. Go further straight for about 3 - 5 minutes. Al Rawsha will be on your left. Just park at the nearest possible ‘parking’ space that you can find.
The restaurant is usually quite crowded during lunch time and VERY crowded during dinner time. Well, when a place is crowded you know that that place is good
You can choose to dine outside at the open air dining concept or indoor with air condition. There are limited space in the air conditioned room though, so preference is given to families in that room. But anyway the open air concept is indeed better and more lively if you come with groups of friends.
Enjoy your dining experience!!!
