Run by an elderly couple in Gjirokastër, this balcony restaurant near the Ali Pasha Bridge trail turns up in review after review as the meal travellers remember longest from their whole trip to Albania. The food is straightforward home cooking — meatballs, stuffed peppers, a yoghurt-and-garlic xhaxhiku — but the view from the terrace over the valley and castle gets equal billing, and it's routine here for the owners to send out cinnamon apples, honey cake or a plate of cherries without anyone asking. A perfect 5.0 from 707 reviews is striking for a small family kitchen with no sign advertising it.
