A DINER has revealed how he racked up a £7,100 bill at Salt Bae’s restaurant – and he doesn’t even eat steak.
TikToker Mitch showed off a receipt including £43 for a cheese starter and £13.50 for a small side of mashed potato.
His table was also charged £22.50 for water, £17 for sliced avocado and £10 for spinach.
They spent £88 on two single tequilas and £5,400 on two bottles of burgundy.
The bill also included two gold-leaf steaks costing almost £1,300 and a chicken dish for £56.
Video shows Salt Bae slicing one steak at the table and seasoning it over his elbow with his “sprinkle” gimmick.

The total – before tip – came to 31,475 dirhams at the chef’s Nusr-Et steakhouse in Dubai.
At the bottom the words “service charge not included” were circled in blue ballpoint pen.
Mitch captioned his video: “When you pay 31k to see Salt Bae but don’t eat steak.”
And he joked: “Note to self: check red wine prices.”
