Salt Bae fans obsessed with ‘grotesque’ detail in video (it’s not a £1.5k steak)

Nusret Gökçe, aka Salt Bae, has taken the UK by storm since opening his brand new restaurant with its exorbitant priced cuts of meat prompting heated discussions.

Most Brits have been left aghast at the jaw-dropping prices that some of the customers have been parting with for what essentially looks like a piece of average looking meat.

Nusret London opened at the Park Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge on September 23 and since then the pricey restaurant hasn’t been away from the headlines.

One customer who reportedly visited the meat joint spent over £37,000 on one visit, all be it almost £30,000 of that was spent on two bottles of expensive wine.

Part of the restaurant’s USP is the social media savvy main man himself, Salt Bae, who never misses the opportunity to cut diner’s dishes in a flamboyant theatrical style in front of the camera.

Videos of these encounters often pop on social media and are then furiously shared and re-posted across Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.

It is understood that the customer is Mustafa Dimitri, who describes himself as an actor and model on his TikTok profile.

Mustafa looks quietly impressed as his dinner is sliced before him, culminating in a fist pump at the end between the two men.

The clip however has left many viewers furious due to the perceived lack of good manners shown by the customer.

Many people criticised the well-dressed man for wearing his hat and not wearing any socks.

On Twitter one person commented: “There’s been an evolution from no socks to not removing the hat when at a table! That hat should have been off at the point of crossing threshold, surely?”

Another disgruntled person wrote: “Elbows on the table, hat indoors no wonder someone else needs to cut his food up for him.”

“It’s not that he is wearing a hat indoors, but rather the fact that he is wearing a suit without having socks on,” someone added.

While a fourth person fumed: “Keeps his hat on at the dining table and doesn’t wear socks….. we have reached peak deviancy.”

Finally in another Tweet a person added: “Wearing a hat indoors is just grotesque.”
