Your Guide to a Culinary Winter Wonderland at Four Seasons Nile Plaza


Christmas. The time for the so-called ‘cuffing season’, an outpour of family gatherings and insatiable appetites that can only be remedied with an adequate sprinkling of pumpkin spice. As ‘Love Actually’ fanatics crawl from beneath their festive blankets and resurface in golden gowns and red bottom heels, the one place that can match wits with their love of all-things festive and glamorous is the Four Seasons Nile Plaza. 


In celebration of the Christmas season - and ensuing dietary negligence - the bespoke culinary experts are hosting ‘A Winter Wonderland’ of their own. Imbuing the season with more memorable dining experiences, ‘A Winter Wonderland’ adds a festive twist to the Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s array of cafes and restaurants. From mid December to New Year’s Eve, a plethora of celebratory dining experiences awaits your consuming pleasure. 


CHRISTMAS TREATS-ON-THE-GO 

December 20th  – January 7th 

 

The Four Season’s coveted Beymen Cafe’s is offering a plethora of family-orientated festive treats. Crafted by their inhouse pastry chefs, the holiday-themed offerings include a collection of culturally-entrenched Christmas cakes and an array of holiday goodies to match. 

 

BULLONA 

Christmas Eve | December 24th  

First seating from: 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM

Second seating from: 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM 

 

Unwind beneath Bullona’s dimly lit walkways and indulge in a six-course set menu of meticulously crafted Mediterranean cuisine. Ascribing to their atmospheric connotations, Bullona is topping off an evening of delectable dining with a melodic DJ set. 

 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

First seating from: 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM 

Second seating from: 10:00 PM to 3:00 AM 

In honour of New Year’s celebrations, Bullona is extending its menu to include six to seven courses of their traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Their second round of reservations - coincidently aligning with the start of the new year - will add to the food-based festivities. Feeding into the festive atmosphere, the night will also witness a constant stream of soul-healing music all the way from Milan, courtesy of DJs Anglica and Marc.

 

ZITOUNI

Christmas Eve | December 24th  

7:00 PM - 12:00 AM

Since family feasts necessitate traditional Egyptian cuisine, the Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s Zitouni Christmas Eve buffet is designed to satiate those precise cravings. 

 

Christmas Day | December 25th   

1:00 PM - 5:30 PM

Sticking to the hotel's festive theme - yet still diplomatically cooking up an Egyptian feast - Zitouni’s Christmas Day buffet adds a modern holiday flair to traditional dishes.  

 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

First seating from: 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM

Second seating from: 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM 

Since New Year’s dinners always manage to slightly overstay their welcome and extend themselves to the early hours of the morning, Zitouni has taken that cultural notion in stride and will, in turn, host its very own dinner buffet. 

 

New Year’s Day | January 1st 

1:00 PM - 12:00 AM

Before you’re forced to face the obvious fact that you have not moved from your seat since last night, Zitouni is ensuring no conversation is left unattended to an all-day buffet on New Year’s Day.

 

Coptic Christmas | January 7th

1:00 PM -  12:00 AM 

The only thing that can truly mend the insipid realisation that the holidays are coming to an end is a brunch with your loved ones. As the delicate conversations draw to a sharp close and nostalgic childhood flashbacks latch onto every move mitigated, Zitouni’s brunch will serve as the makeshift closing ceremony tethering all your festive experiences together.

 

RIVIERA 

Christmas Eve | December 24th  

7:00 PM - 12:00 AM

To adequately fuel your late night escapes, graze on platefuls of burrata and forkfuls of hand-crafted pasta at the Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s Italian coastal cuisine experts, Riviera. The five-course set menu absolves you of hectic last minute culinary decisions. 

 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

First seating from: 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM

Second seating from: 10:00 PM to 1:00 AM 

Since Riviera is the gift that keeps on giving, their second seating reservations come with the added bonus of a sixth course. Bearing that in mind, unbuckle those Fendi belts and succumb to the world of traditional Italian cuisine. 

 

EIGHT

Christmas Eve | December 24th 

7:00 PM - 12:00 AM

Family-oriented festivities aside, the holidays always waltz in with an added romantic flair. Perhaps the influx can be attributed to the endless Christmas special reruns or the mistletoes looming over our shoulder, either way, a ‘Truly Chinese’ dinner at the Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s 8 is a sure-fire way to feed into those fantasies.     

 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

First seating from: 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM

Second seating from: 10:30 PM to 1:00 AM 

Falling in line with their love-themed festivities, Eight is tackling the start of the new year with soy-dipped concoctions. With a set five and six-course menu, the upscale dining establishment is adding much needed spice to hours spent lovingly gazing into the eyes of your one true love. 

 

MEET SANTA 

Christmas Day | December 25th   

12:00 PM - 4:00 PM 

The Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s lobby, lounges and restaurants are hosting a ‘Meet Santa’ event whereby toddlers (and parents) can fulfil their roster of Christmas wishes for the day.  

 

LA GALERIE 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

Live entertainment from 7:00 PM to 1:00 AM 

As you waltz through the hotel’s opulent walkways - having just launched face first into their range of fine dining options - you can explore the endless options of treats that La Galerie’s chocolate buffet has to offer. And as the flavours whisk you away on a mouthwatering journey of their own, let a line-up of live entertainment set the scene. 

 

THE BAR 

Christmas Eve | December 24th 

7:00 PM - 3:00 AM 

Live entertainment from 9:00 PM to 12:00 AM 

The Bar is serving up platefuls of traditional Spanish Tapas and live entertainment interspersed with international dishes to quench the insatiable void that is ‘deep-fried delectables’. Adding a lavish twist to late-night Christmas-induced grazing, The Bar adds a tavern-esque feel to fine dining. 

 

New Year’s Eve | December 31st 

7:00 PM - 1:00 AM 

Live entertainment from 9:00 PM to 12:00 AM 

The Bar is where to go this New Year’s Eve when parties ignite a series of irregular heart palpitations; ones only rectifiable through crystal glasses brimming with bubbly rosé and soul-healing live entertainment.
