Oriental City Tirana

Great Chinese in Tirana

Ingrid from Tirana

I'm such a curious one: I'm constantly searching for new spots and new places. The places I love in this city are always about what I appreciate the most: Great food, art, books and music. After 15 years of working in Marketing, during the pandemic, I decided to change my path completely, and now I am a proud small business owner struggling with everyday challenges :) I love this city...
""Oriental City" is a Chinese restaurant which has provev to be very popular among locals and perhaps even the best in Tirana also with a nice decor..."

For a very long time Chinese food was a little difficult to include in our dining choices because of our so-Mediterranean food style. Later on Chinese restaurants started to become more popular and when Oriental City opened a few years back, it became so popular that even those who didn't like Chinese food were eager to try it.

Today Oriental City is the best Chinese restaurant that offers the widest variety of dishes prepared by a Chinese chef. The dishes are so tasty and all the specials on the menu are prepared using exclusive, imported ingredients from China.

The interior design and the details of the restaurant décor are obviously inspired by the Chinese culture but it is not overcrowded with details, symbols and colors, it has a clean polished style with Chinese ornaments and details.

I'm such a curious one: I'm constantly searching for new spots and new places. The places I love in this city are always about what I appreciate the most: Great food, art, books and music. After 15 years of working in Marketing, during the pandemic, I decided to change my path completely, and now I am a proud small business owner struggling with everyday challenges :) I love this city because it is constantly evolving (and has fantastic weather, too :)). There is still so much to do to bring out the best in the people and the city.

Antigua Caffè

Aesthetic vibes in the city

"Antigua Caffè" in Tirana is just the cutest! They've been well-known for their coffee since 1995, but their carrot cake is my personal favorite...

Chateau Fasel

A short getaway near Tirana

"Chateau Fasel" outside Tirana is surrounded by beautiful nature. They have a hotel & restaurant, but what I like about it are the open-air cinema nights.
