Istanbul – Day 3, Dinner

Wow, was dinner fabulous!!

They brought us by bus to a Cistern which has been converted into a restaurant. We arrived on a red carpet and were greeted with Champaign. A lady was on a swing, high above the room, singing opera. After a few appetizers, they brought us to our tables.

The first course was a nice salmon salad. Of course, Lynn had to point out that it was raw salmon. No more for me, thanks. 🙂 The dinner also included spinach ravioli, beef medallions, and turkish delights. Throughout the dinner, a band played live music. Between each course, they had turkish dancers. They were very good.

We arrived back at the hotel by midnight. The bad news is, our plane ride home leaves at 2:30. So, I’m still awake.

GREAT TRIP!!!
