Internet Sensation ‘Salt Bae’ Opens Turkish Steakhouse in NYC

‘Salt Bae’ is coming to NYC!

Turkish chef and butcher Nusret ‘Salt Bae’ Gokce became an instant internet sensation after a video of him chopping and seasoning meat went viral.

The 35-year-old’s debonair meat-prepping expertise soon made him the face of the infamous ‘sprinkling salt’ meme, which is a meme that basically captures Gokce letting salt flow down his forearm and onto the food.

Since gaining online popularity, Gokce has landed a few serving jobs with celebs, such as DJ Khaled and even Simone Biles.

 

But, what most don’t know is that Gokce isn’t only a master at tossing salt on a few steaks, he’s also the owner of a successful chain of Turkish steakhouses.

Gokce launched his Nusr-Et restaurants years ago. He has some in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and he just recently opened one in Miami.

However, he has now decided to expand.

On Monday, Gokce had the grand opening of the newest restaurant to be added to the food chain in the United States, and it’s in none other than midtown Manhattan.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The New York establishment is located in the former China Grill in the CBS Black Rock building at 60 W. 53rd Street.

The new location is Gokce’s thirteenth restaurant and he has plans to bring one to London if this one does well.
