Penang’s vibrant culinary landscape receives welcome news as Tarbush Penang announces an extension of its 30% discount promotion until 15th February 2026, offering both immediate savings and long-term benefits through a newly introduced VIP membership programme. The extension provides diners with an unexpected second opportunity to experience authentic Middle Eastern cuisine at substantially reduced prices.


The promotion, which many patrons believed had concluded, applies comprehensively to the restaurant’s entire menu at the Penang outlet. The 30% reduction encompasses an impressive range of traditional offerings, including the establishment’s signature fire-served Kabsa Pot featuring tender lamb, an array of mezze selections with creamy hummus and grilled halloumi, crispy falafel platters, paneer preparations, and freshly pressed fruit juices. The breadth of the discount ensures that both regular customers and first-time visitors can explore the full spectrum of Middle Eastern culinary traditions without constraint.


The establishment’s shawarma offerings continue to generate considerable interest amongst diners, often resulting in queues extending beyond the restaurant’s entrance. Under the current promotion, chicken shawarma is priced at RM14.10, reduced from RM20.15, whilst lamb shawarma is available for RM17.05, down from RM24.40. Both takeaway and dine-in options remain available, with customers able to observe the traditional preparation method as seasoned meat is sliced fresh from the rotating vertical spit and assembled with garlic sauce, pickles, and fresh vegetables. The theatrical element of preparation adds to the dining experience, particularly for those unfamiliar with authentic Middle Eastern culinary techniques.

Complementing the extended promotional period, Tarbush Penang has launched a VIP membership initiative available to all diners, regardless of spend or frequency of visits. Following their meal, customers may request a VIP membership code from staff, which can be scanned via mobile device for immediate activation. The membership grants holders 20% discount at all Tarbush outlets nationwide during non-promotional periods, effectively extending value well beyond the current 30% offer and rewarding customer loyalty across the chain’s entire network.

With the promotion confirmed through mid-February at the Penang location, the dual-benefit structure of immediate significant savings coupled with ongoing membership privileges presents a compelling proposition for both regular patrons and those yet to experience Tarbush’s Middle Eastern cuisine offerings.
