A Culinary Journey to Remember! So glad we found this beautiful place! - The Albanian cooking class was more than just a lesson in traditional cuisine; it was a gateway to a rich cultural experience. Our host, Sokol, was the epitome of hospitality, sharing not only his cooking secrets but also stories that brought each dish to life.
The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making us feel like family rather than guests. Sokol’s expertise was evident as he guided us through the preparation of each recipe with patience and great humor. The flavors were authentic and bold, transporting us to the heart of Albania with every bite.
We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Sokol for an unforgettable experience. His passion for cooking and his dedication to sharing his culture left a lasting impression on us. We highly recommend this cooking class to anyone looking for a unique and delightful culinary adventure.
Thank you, Sokol, for an incredible day filled with laughter, learning, and the most delicious food. We can’t wait to come back!

Delicious Albanian food with Sokol as a wonderful cook and narrator - Great evening with Sokol as chef with delicious Albanian and Mediterranean dishes. We got 13 small servings - mainly vegetarian. Everyone tasted exquisite, and Sokol told far and wide about the food, culture, history and life in Albania.
It is a must-do in Tirana if you like culinary experiences.

Diving in to Albanian cuisine - We had an amazing dinner at Sokol’s culinary place. He made sure that everyone felt comfortable and provided a wealth of diverse Albanian dishes.
One thing that I particularly liked about the experience was that we ate seasonal-specific food. Sokol explained the process of creating each dish that he presented. For a group who had never been to Albania before, this was really a personal and cultural treat.
