Al-Rawsha's signature dish featuring fragrant rice cooked with warming Middle Eastern spices and topped with slow-cooked lamb. The lamb is remarkably tender, falling apart at the touch of a fork, and melts in your mouth. Reviews consistently praise this as one of the best mandy dishes in Kuala Lumpur.
Tips from diners
This is the hero dish — order it as your main. Portions are generous and filling.
Lamb mandy feeds 2-3 people comfortably, so order strategically when dining in groups.
A vegetarian-friendly rice dish featuring basmati rice cooked with saffron, spices, and a medley of vegetables. The result is aromatic and colorful, with each grain of rice absorbing the spice flavors.

A light main course on its own, or pair with hummus or grilled chicken for more protein.
Traditional shawarma made with vertically roasted lamb, sliced fresh to order, and wrapped in warm pita with lettuce, tomatoes, and house tahini sauce. The meat achieves a char on the outside while remaining juicy inside.

Lighter than mandy and good for lunch — the portion is satisfying but less heavy.
A more accessible version of the mandy using chicken instead of lamb. The chicken is marinated in Middle Eastern spices and cooked until tender. The rice is fragrant and well-seasoned, providing a satisfying base for the protein.
Tips from diners
If you're unsure about lamb, start with chicken mandy — it's flavorful and lower commitment.
