He's also been made into a meme, a T-shirt, anda choreographed dance inspiration, plus he is friends with Tommy Hilfiger, has served Leonardo De Caprio (as pictured above), and has more than 2 million Instagram followers.
The Turkish chef, whose real name is NusretGke, owns seven steakhouses in Turkey and Abu Dhabi, and he posts videos that will infinitely confuse and awe you: Is he more mouth watering, or is his sensual preparation of the best-looking meat around more mouth watering? I don't know! It's too confusing!
I'm making an early bet that he'll imminently have his own cooking show, in which we inevitably see him shirtless during those little lifestyle segments, so I guess we don't have to choose. I mean, check out this bod:
He posts workout videos on his Instagram too. I'm not really sure why you haven't hit follow on his page yet.
The sweeping success he's achieved with his restaurants is even more notable than his super sexy salting video - he is self-made, and he has some of the most unique meat-based dishes in the world. (One example: A steak-based sushi cooked tableside with a blow torch.) He is so dedicated to his craft, he often visits where he sources his meat. He flies in Baklava from Turkey every single day and then makes it even better than it was before.
And there is good news! He is opening new restaurants in New York and London soon, so perhaps one day we will be able to lay our own eyes upon Salt Bae ourselves.
