The Secrets of Albanian Cuisine: Cooking Class in Tirana
What your day looks like
During the cooking class, you’ll learn to create traditional Albanian dishes from scratch, including recipes passed down through generations. All of this takes place in good company, with fine wine and local drinks. You’ll prepare “Tave Kosi,” Albania’s most iconic dish, known as the “independence dish” since it was the favorite of Ismail Qemali, the country’s first prime minister. You’ll also learn how to make a delicious homemade byrek, along with traditional desserts. We take pride in using organic and natural ingredients—from the herbs and vegetables in our garden to our homemade wine and raki—offering guests an authentic taste of Albania.
