'I flew to Turkey and had the best steak of my life at Salt Bae's restaurant - for cheaper than UK meal'

A Brit flew to Turkey and bought a meal from Salt Bea's restaurant for less than £95 - the average price of the social media star's steak in the UK.

Callum Ryan, 23, saw that the cheapest steak on offer at Salt Bae's UK restaurant was a thinly sliced wagyu striploin for £95. He wondered if he could get it cheaper at the original restaurant in the same chain, based in Istanbul, Turkey.

He booked a flight from Luton Airport, London, to Istanbul, Turkey with Wizz Air - costing him £17.99. Once he landed in Istanbul, Callum went to Salt Bae's Nsr-Et Steakhouse and ordered a New York steak, fries, chill sauce, coca cola and a dessert for £57.95.

In total, he spent £75.93 which is £19.07 cheaper than the price of a steak in Salt Bae's UK restaurant. Callum, a content creator, from Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, said: "The food was unreal, it was the best steak I have ever had."

"I will definitely be going back, the steak itself was worth it alone. I think I would rather take the trip to Istanbul if the food there is as good as the London restaurant to get a weekend out of it."

In May, Callum flew to Portugal and bought peri peri chicken all for less than £15 - cheaper than the cost of his usual Nando's order. He also flew to Spain for a three day holiday for less than £100 all in.
