Molokhia Minced Leaf Stew + one side dish - RM11.55 Actually, I was a bit skeptical initially. Well, surprisingly, this Molokhia Minced Leaf Stew at this Tut's Eatery tastes great, I do not smell or taste anything greenish like grass. Molokhia is made up of stewed Molokhia leaves spiced with butter, garlic, coriander, cumin and black pepper. In fact, my friend love it, especially when it is eaten with toasted crispy buttered bread. Another highly recommended dish.
Bamya Lamb Stew + 1 side dish (RM 38.50) Double thumbs up for this dish!. Enjoy this tiny lady finger from Egypt where they are beautifully cooked in a delicious stew with the tender premium lamb cubes. Enjoy them with the dish of your choice.
Biram bamya succulent beef stew with 1 side (RM23.90) Daging lembut bersama bendi kecil. Kuah pekat. Very recommended..
这里提供了好几种特制的酱料来搭配食物,其中的一样- Nutty Sauce 我非常推荐。结合了好几种坚果磨成浓酱,还带有淡淡的蒜香味,搭配炸物一流,好想问可不可以买一瓶回家哦!
This was a great introduction to Egyptian cuisine to me and rest assured that if I am given the opportunity to visit again, a more comprehensive eating experience will be at hand!
The Herbal Hot Plate Chicken with Baked Rice RM25.90 is one of the main course in our Tut’s dining session. This land of Nile dish is served with Tut’s secret herbs and sauces, combining tenderly cooked chicken with exotic Egyptian flavour baked rice and vegetables. Personally thinks that this hot plate chicken is a more successful variant compared to Nando’s chicken rice and vegetable set (despite having extra unique spice flavour and juicier texture on the overall dish), would recommend this dish with two thumbs up!
Reasons to visit Tut’s Egyptian Eatery: a chance to try authentic Egyptian cuisine (a first I believe in Kuala Lumpur); affordable pricing; our top picks are the Molokhia Minced Leaf Stew, Koshari Mixed Grain Bowl, Herbal Hot Plate Chicken with Baked Rice and Om Ali Bread Pudding.
Tut - short for King Tut, was a monarch that once ruled Egypt, some 3,000 years back. Fast forward to that afternoon, the meal I had at Tut's was not only fit for a king, but also our very own Malaysian tastebuds. The menu consisted of a handful of solo starters and sides, alongside chicken being in most of their main courses. The combination of ingredients used may looked diverse, but the flavors were not unexpected at all. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the food here, one of the reasons being the taste of most dishes have been tweaked to fit our tastebuds. Also contrary to what I initially presumed, Egyptian cuisine may be similar but not the same from Arabic cuisine. In fact, I thought the food reminded me more of Mexican instead, with a tinge of Mediterranean to boost. On that note, Tut's Egyptian Eatery is possibly the only Egyptian restaurant I know of in Malaysia.
Verdict: 1. Overall, an amazing Egyptian affair with local and Western twists that is ideal for friends and families alike. 2. The dishes here are suited for local taste buds, and I find that the main ingredients i.e. spices used in Egyptian cuisine are easily acceptable. Nothing shocking, all pleasing to the palate. 3. Must try: Koshari Mixed Grain Bowl and Herbal Hot Plate Chicken with Baked Rice
"Egypt is known for its ancient history and heritage. The origins of Egyptian cuisine is still well treasured till today. We believe that our authentic Egyptian cuisine prepared by Egyptian chefs does not compromise on flavour. What you will savour at Tut's will be exactly the same if you were fortunate to visit Egypt. Every dish is reflective of our commitment to bring the real taste of Egypt!" said Mohamed Zein, Tut's Business Development Manager.
Upon reaching the signature colours of the Egyptian flag - Red, yellow and black - greeted us, along with the friendly Mr. Zain, who immediately impressed us with his warm demeanour. He proceeded to give us a simple yet informative background of the establishment on how the recipes were purely Egyptian, and how a local poll was done to see how well received Egyptian food would be to the foodies that we Malaysians are. Surprisingly, many of our fellow Malaysians (including ourselves) were quite clueless to what Egyptian food was really like! I enjoy an eatery that spends time introducing not just food, but also culture to its patrons.
