‘Service charge alone is three weeks shopping for a family’: Netizens react to expensive food at chef Salt Bae’s restaurant
The Turkish chef Nusret Gokce aka “Salt Bae” recently opened a new restaurant in London. The chef, whose image of sprinkling salt on meat went viral a few years ago, has opened a chain of restaurants around the world.
The chef even peeked at the restaurant – Nusr-Et Steakhouse London – on Instagram.
But now the internet users are reacting to the exorbitant dishes of the gourmet restaurant. Twitterati went nuts when a bill from the restaurant made the rounds on social media. The total amount on the bill was £ 1,812.40 (rupees 1,81494).

This is how internet users reacted:
Honestly, this has to be a wake-up call. Absolutely ridiculous to spend so much money on a meal, it’s just obscene. You are clearly being ripped off, it’s seen in black and white, No piece of beef is worth £ 630, you were charged £ 11 for a can of Red Bull. FFS

£ 9 for a Coke means you will fight the discretionary service fee. € 10.35 for a cola.

Nine pounds the queen for a cola?

This service fee alone amounts to 3 weeks of shopping for a family

Some of the other luxury Nusr-Et stores are in Ankara, Istanbul, Mykonos, Miami, New York, Boston, Dallas, Beverly Hills, Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
The name of the restaurant chain is known to be derived from its own name and “et”, which means “meat” in Turkish.
In 2017, Nusret shared a video in which he gently slices meat and sprinkles salt on it. When it went viral, it was called “Salt Bae,” which resulted in viral memes.
