		Albanians are great socializers, and after taking a late afternoon nap, they promenade leisurely along the wide streets during the evening on the way to meet friends and relatives before partaking of a late dinner.

		Although the majority of Albanians are Muslim, this restaurant serves a number of pork dishes, of which we tried biftek derri me patata ($11.75), a couple of lean pork-tenderloin slices in another liptao-based cream sauce, with excellent roast potatoes and another salad of pickled roast vegetables.
		Troftë tavë ($14.95), described as "a true Albanian tradition," is a baked whole rainbow trout in what I would think of as a Dalmatian sauce of plum tomatoes, onions, lemon slices, and bay leaves, not unlike the Croatian baked fish served in some of the old restaurants of San Francisco.
		We had the same enthusiastic waitress both visits, a new hire, who was also of Albanian background and excited to be serving the food of her heritage.

		Albanian cuisine is very nearly a carbon of Greek food, heavily imbued with lamb, olives and oregano.
		But there are lots of local dishes such as byrek (Albanian vegetable pies), kroketa (fried potato cakes) and qofte (meatballs) washed down with vast amounts of beer and skanderbeg, an Albanian brandy, to set if off from the Greeks.
		Albanian beer and skanderbeg would work well on Leo's wine list, if there were a wine list.

		If the culinary affinity doesn't seem obvious — Albanian cuisine includes dishes like faszle (bean stew), not pizza — the Albanians say they are capitalizing on experience and geography.
		The Kolajs, the owners of the Famous Famiglia pizzerias, have made the most of their 14-month stay in a camp in Italy, where their father died and the youngest brother, Giorgio, was born.
		Like the Italians before them, the Albanians are using pizzerias to segue into the middle and higher ends of the restaurant business.

		Crazy dictator Enver Hoxha bankrupted the country building them on the theory that the Albanian paradise was secretly so coveted by the world that these would be the only thing standing in the way of invasions from Russia or the United States.

		But Albanian eluded me. Albanians are not exactly forthcoming; whenever I found a place I suspected might harbor a few Albanian dishes and made inquiries therein, I was greeted with the traditional Albanian welcome of "Who sent you?!?".
		Boureks are not the entirety of Albanian cuisine, of course, but they're way delicious, and pretty much the heart and soul of the culinary tradition (think herring to a Dane--or maybe Haring to a Williamsburgh boho artist???).
		I returned weeks later to Gurra Cafe with some Albanians, was allowed in, and had a nice meal, and still carry with me at all times--like an amulet--the Gurra Cafe card that will--I think--allow me to return unchaperoned one day.
