Dining in Aqua, the gourmet restaurant of Four Seasons Bosphorus, Istanbul

We like the Four Seasons Group and have dined already in four of these world class hotels, in Istanbul, Miami and Paris. The Aqua restaurant of this Four Seasons hotel has a fantastic interior, we had a quick look at the menu and made reservations for the evening. Walking outside we took a picture of a red and white Ferrari.

Later in the evening the garden lights and the Bosphorus Bridge were like in a fairytale. Everywhere in the hotel you saw flowers and the corridor leading to the restaurant had modern green lights. It is a romantic restaurant and the food was very good. We added a description to each picture.

We just started our dinner when we saw Dutch people entering the restaurant. It was Wesley Sneijder together with Yolanthe Cabau his wife. Wesley is the captain of the Dutch national football team and his wife a model. He now plays for Galatasaray in Istanbul. We respected their privacy and added a picture from the internet.

We houden van de Four Seasons Group en hebben reeds in vier van hun wereldklasse hotels gast geweest, in Istanboel, Miami en Parijs. Het Aqua restaurant van dit Four Seasons hotel heeft een fantastisch interieur, we keken vluchtig in het menu en reserveerden een tafeltje voor het avondmaal. Buiten namen we nog enkele foto’s van een rode en witte Ferrari.

Later op de avond met de tuinlichtjes aan, en de Bosphorus Brug, leek het wel op een sprookje. Overal in het hotel stonden er bloemen en de gang naar het restaurant kleurde modern groen. Er hangt romantiek in het restaurant en het eten was zeer lekker. Bij iedere foto is een beschrijving toegevoegd. 

We waren nog maar net aan onze voorgerechten begonnen toen er enkele beroemde Nederlandse het restaurant binnen wandelden. Het was Wesley Sneijder samen met zijn echtgenote Yolanthe Cabau. Hij is de aanvoerder van het Nederlandse Nationale voetbal team en zijn vrouw een top model. Wesley speelt nu bij Galatasaray in Istanboel. We respecteerden hun privacy en voegden een foto toe van op het internet..

  4. The lighting in the hotel is very sophisticated, and the flowers magnificent. I never saw the bridge lit up - I made a mistake not to do that.
