Albania is the second county in our Global Table Adventure. The menu consists of Tava Elbasani (Lamb Baked in Yogurt), Byrek ose Lakror (Leek Pie), Turli Perim (Albanian Vegetables), Albanian Cornbread and Llokume (Turkish Delight). An interesting fact we learned about Albania is it was a communist country until 1991.
