How should I go about finding the Albanian national dish, tavë kosi?

ERA Restaurant, Tirana, 2 locations has excellent Tave Kosi but it’s usually sold out by early lunchtime. Also has many other traditional dishes.

Hehe, from our conversation on meta:

“You should try Tave Kosi in Elbasan – where it’s originally from, 1.5 hours SE of Tirana.”

Of course, if you’re not in the area or have been through there already, it could be trickier. One way could be to befriend a local, and get them to help you cook it – it’d be a great cultural experience. Recipe available here – although they may have a local one.

Also from a bit of vague referencing on forums, it looks like restaurant “Mangalem” in Berat may well serve it, when in season. I can only find google search results with this in them though, once you click through the site is no longer showing the information.
