Little Albania FOOD TOUR in NYC! This is How they Treat Me in LITTLE ALBANIA in New York City!
My whirlwind 48 hours in New York City continued with an incredible tour of its rich Little Albania neighborhood!
Over the past century, Albanian immigrants have moved to this part of the city, also known as Little Italy. From byre to rakija to tavas to cevapi, you can find it all here!

DUA MARKET: At this authentic Albanian market, my friend Alexandra prepared sweet cherry peppers stuffed with cheese; sun-dried peppers stuffed with provolone; olives; an ajvar-like red chili paste; and a massive chicken cutlet sandwich with arugula, mozzarella, and roasted red red peppers.
We also enjoyed some rakija, petulla/krofne with spicy honey, and palačinke (Balkan crepes) with Nutella!
TEUTA QEBAPTORE: Here, we had some delicious qofte, qebapa, and sujuk with salad, cheese, kaymak, and ajvar!
DÉA: Here, we enjoyed some crispy cheese and meat byrek. It was fresh and flaky, and the filling inside was extremely flavorful!

Lovely Albania in NYC. Love it. One place would love to go to even live!! The food country people history. And to experience it NYC is awesome and a definite must stop to enjoy♥ Have great day and week Team David ♥
I love thing Albanian. Thanks David for this!
Thank you for another great video from you. It's nice to see Albanian food and cuisine in USA. Don't forget Raki 😄
Albania is so awesome!!
I've been to that neighborhood twice but only for the Italian food, now I have to return to try the Albanian food scene.
I moved from the Bronx 5 years ago and had visited Arthur Avenue many times for Italian goodies and restaurants. I am a bit surprised to see that it has turned from Little Italy to Little Albania, since the Italians tend to have a very strong hold on their areas. But I am not that much surprised since there is a high Albanian and Croatian population just off of Pelham Parkway and Fordham Road area. The area still looks that same and it's nice to see that it has been kept alive.

There is no Croatian community in the Bronx. There are ethnic Albanians from Albania proper, from Kosovo, Montenegro and Macedonia. Sure there may be a few random Croatians here and there (I know there are a few Bosnians) but not a community.
I was just in little italy. Glad you put a spot light on my home town the Bronx. They do have some great food and culture.

Morning David: Yes, I enjoyed this one. It was so straightforward and easy to follow. I loved everything that you ate. The fried dough-balls remind me of pholourie😋. Everywhere you and Nathan went was so clean. Well done. BTW, why do people write "1st comment or "here first" as comments when they are not really commenting on the video? Just curious 🤔🤔🤔.

The Turkish influence is very much In the food. I have a lot of respect for Skanderbeg though being Greek he played an important part in Balkan history even though the Turks prevailed in the end I hope in the future Albania will become part of the Euro zone

There are a few Albanians and Albanian businesses on and off of that portion of Arthur Avenue. However this is not an Albanian neighborhood or Little Albania. The surrounding blocks are mostly Mexican, Puerto Rican, Dominican and Anglo-Carribean with a few west Africans. Also there is no little Albania anywhere in New York. There are areas with high concentrations of Albanians in the US in the Bronx (Pelham Parkway being the largest, Morris Park, Bedford Park, Norwood, Pelham Bay, Country Club), as well as in Queen, Brooklyn, Staten Island and Westchester County, and as a matter of fact in 2023, no neighborhood in NY is not mixed or 100% something, it’s not the 60’s anymore. Also, I don’t know why they persist in calling it Little Italy, there may be 3 Italian families left, and most Italian restaurants and businesses are owned by the sons and daughters of 3rd generation Italian immigrants who live in NJ or Westchester and the rest of Italian businesses are Albanian-owned and operated
