The global table of Albanian taste & hospitality
From gastronomy to HORECA, a living platform of culture and experience
Experience AlbChef
AlbChef is a global platform dedicated to celebrating Albanian gastronomy, hospitality, and the professionals who carry its traditions forward. We bring together chefs, restaurants, hotels, cafés, food artisans, and passionate storytellers from across Albania and the diaspora, creating a living network of talent, flavor, service, and cultural identity.
AlbChef connects the entire HORECA world, those who keep Albanian taste and hospitality alive, and those who push them forward.

For one week each year, we celebrate Albanian cuisine with curated dinners, cultural activations, and public awareness campaigns, shining a spotlight on Albania’s rich flavors, traditions, and hospitality, and bringing them to international tables.
