Indulging in a delicious steak is one thing, but when the bill hits an eye-watering $108,000, it’s a whole new level of culinary extravagance, don’t you think? The notorious Salt Bae, famed for his sky-high prices, is facing criticism again. A recent revelation of a jaw-dropping AED398,630 ($108,000) bill at his Dubai restaurant, Nusr-Et, has stirred up quite a storm.
Salt Bae’s Culinary Extravaganza
The maestro of steaks, none other than Nusret Gokce, aka Salt Bae himself, decided to spill the tea on his socials, sharing a bill that’s got everyone’s eyebrows reaching new heights, like three golden steaks costing $1,400. Then there’s a $76 beef carpaccio, accompanied by a side of fries that cost a little over $10 each. And hold your breath because Salt Bae’s special salt seasoning? Priced at a glamorous $38 per person.
But wait, there’s more, like a mind-boggling $24,000 tip, adding serious flair to the already hefty bill. And don’t even get us started on the drinks, ringing in at a staggering $71,000. Just when you thought dining couldn’t get more extravagant, Salt Bae effortlessly takes it up a notch.
Social Media Backlash
In a weird move, Salt Bae himself captioned the jaw-dropping photo, “Money comes, money goes.” However, the extravagant display of wealth didn’t sit well with many, sparking a wave of disgust at the seemingly outrageous prices. Critics expressed their opinions all over social media. Several people even noted that the bill surpasses their three-year earnings.
Salt Bae catapulted into the spotlight with his distinctive salt-sprinkling flair, capturing attention with each graceful move over people’s food. His culinary empire, Nusr-Et, now spans 20 locations globally, including Turkey, Greece, the United States, and the United Kingdom, attracting a slew of celebrity guests like Leonardo DiCaprio and Usher. With prices like those, it’s no surprise only celebrities can eat there!
