Couple fly to Turkey to eat Salt Bae meal as it’s cheaper than dining at UK steakhouse
A COUPLE flew to Turkey to eat at a Salt Bae restaurant — and their meal, holiday and flights were cheaper than dining at his UK steakhouse.
A giant tomahawk steak in his Nusr-Et eaterie in London costs £1,450.
Food reviewers Fahd and Nashwa avoided “getting robbed” by taking a trip to Salt’s homeland of Turkey instead.
At his Istanbul restaurant they ate a tomahawk steak and sides — all for just £110.
Their video of the trip has attracted over 743,000 views and 64,000 likes.
Fahd and Nashwa of Birmingham — who run the @halalfood.reviews — said: “The food was great . . . worth the hype.”
"We realised it was cheaper to travel all the way to Turkey, enjoy a holiday, eat at Nusret’s, fly back and it’ll still be cheaper than a single meal at the London restaurant”.
“If we could afford to spend thousands at the London branch, we would but since we can’t, Istanbul it is!”
Reality star Gemma Collins said she “felt a bit sick” after paying £1,450 for a gold-covered steak from Salt, real name Nusret Gokce.
