Start your journey at the iconic Skanderbeg Square, where your local host greets you behind the National Opera House before guiding you to a unique and highly favored authentic restaurant.

As you chop, stir, and taste, the air becomes filled with the aromas of fresh local ingredients. This is more than just a cooking class; it’s a cultural journey. Master time-honored techniques, listen to the stories behind the dishes, and discover why food is such a profound expression of Albanian hospitality.
Finally, gather around the table to savor the feast you’ve prepared, sharing laughter, flavors, and new memories. After your meal, your host will escort you back to Skanderbeg Square.
