Description

Step into our family garden home in Tirana for an exclusive, boutique culinary journey through Albania’s rich food traditions. This private experience offers an intimate look into authentic local hospitality, far removed from standard restaurant dining. Start the evening in our kitchen to watch family recipes come to life and learn the art of rolling stretch-thin dough for traditional byrek. Afterwards, relax on our vine-covered garden patio for a multi-course feast prepared by my mother using fresh, seasonal ingredients. As an avid traveler across Albania, I accompany your meal with a curated board of hand-selected artisan cheeses, cured meats, mountain honey, and homemade preserves sourced directly from small local farmers across the country. Enjoy free-flowing regional red and white wines, house-made rakia, and traditional Turkish coffee while enjoying warm conversation and local culture in a private setting.
