      Viewers were appalled by the size of the bill.
      One said: “I don’t mind paying for quality food but this is just overpriced circus.”

      The fame hungry chef pestered Lionel Messi for a selfie, appeared to snatch the World Cup trophy, and bit one player’s medal.
      Fifa has admitted he should never have been allowed on the pitch and launched an official probe.
      Since then Salt has been banned from the US Open football cup and music festival Rolling Loud.
      His followers have also slammed an “uncomfortable” resurfaced Instagram video with Kylian Mbappe.

      And in another video, he can be seen gyrating back and forth while cutting steak for Barcelona star Lewandowski. More

      Five days ago, he posted a new clip, asking for the gift back.

      Salt Bae, whose real name is Nusret Gökçe, somehow got himself in among the winning team and managed to get selfie with Lionel Messi as he celebrated his team’s triumph.
      But in the run up, he was seen badgering the superstar and repeatedly grabbing his arm until the player relented and posed for a picture.
      The chef was slammed on Twitter as “pathetic” for his attention seeking antics, which were also described as the “cringiest thing ever”.
      Suleman agrees, saying Salt Bae’s antics on the football pitch were unacceptable.
      Most read in Football
      In his latest video on the controversy Suleman says: “Salt Bae, you’re a chef and I’m a curry king. I want my gift back.
      “Do you know why? Because you have been so rude and disrespectful to the players.
      “The way you have harrassed the families while they were with their families on the pitch.
      “The way you have tried to snatch the trophy from the players
      “You have lost all your respect and fans from all around the world, including me.
      “You know what, you are so desperate and that’s why you lost all your respect and that’s why I want my gift back.
      “Let me know when and how.”
      Suleman’s video has gone viral, being viewed more than 4.6 million times and garnering more than 8,500 comments.
      But many of the social media users who shared their opinions didn’t agree with him asking for his gift back.
      One person said: “Using Salt Bae as a bait to take his share of fame/controversy.”
      Someone else said: “Trying to get his bit of fame from this.”
      Another wrote: “The way your trying to use another man’s downfall as your moment to shine.”
      FIFA was forced to make a humiliating admission about Salt Bae crashing the World Cup final.
      It said the famous chef, who was pictured pestering Argentinian players after their win against France, should not have been on the pitch.
      Now FIFA is conducting an internal investigation to see how the chef got onto the pitch as he has no commercial relationship with the organisation and was not invited onto the pitch by Gianni Infantino Sky Sports News reports.
      Salt Bae sparked fury before the World Cup after bragging about a £140,584 bill at his high-end restaurant.
      A single steak from the evening was over £1000, and the group spent almost £115,000 on wine alone.
      The backlash came amidst the worst cost-of-living crisis seen in decades, as inflation soars and millions struggle to pay for food and rent.
      Salt Bae shot to fame in 2017 when a video of him lovingly preparing a steak by theatrically sprinkling a handful of salt crystals, quickly went viral.
      Nusret quickly became a celebrity in his own right, cooking for celebrities like David Beckham, Leonardo DiCaprio, and DJ Khaled.

      He opened his first Nusr-Et steakhouse in Istanbul in 2010.
      Suleman Raza has been approached for comment. More

      ‘Disrespectful’ Salt Bae slammed for ‘chatting on his AirPods’ while serving customer £500 steak at ‘rip-off’ restaurant

      by

      SALT Bae has been slammed he was accused of chatting on his AirPods while serving customers a steak that cost them £500.The celebrity chef has been under fire ever since he was accused of hijacking Argentina’s celebrations at the World Cup.
      Salt Bae was slammed as ‘disrespectful’ in the viral TikTok
      The diner was extremely unhappy with Salt Bae
      Salt Bae – real name Nusret Gökçe, – is seen with his Air Pods in as he carves up a steak tableside with his trademark swagger.
      But the angry customer took to TikTok to complain – rating the internet star’s restaurant a dismal 1.7 out of 10.
      Ehtisham Aziz shared the video – saying he paid £500 to have the musclebound butcher carve up his steak at his restaurant Nusr-Et in Doha, Qatar.
      But he was left unimpressed as Salt Bae appeared disinterested as he seemed to be chatting to someone via his AirPods.
      READ MORE ON SALT BAE
      The guest branded him “super disrespectful” and also complained about the quality of the food in the video which has been viewed more than 4million times.
      “Food was extremely expensive and staff was very rude,” wrote Mr Aziz.
      He said having to pay for Bae to plate the steak tableside was “-20/10” while having him talking on his Air Pods was “-100000/10”.
      He did however write seeing the chef sprinkling Salt over the steak was “pretty cool” in real life, saying that was ten out of ten.
      Most read in Sport
      The butcher then fed his brother a slice of the meat before they posed with him for a picture.
      Mr Aziz claims they asked Bae to sign their cousin’s mini football – only for the sunglass-sporting star to then toss it away from them.
      Some fans responded to Mr Aziz’s review by defending Salt Bae.
      “Don’t hate the player, hate the game. Salt bae is a smart guy that profits off of wealthy people willing to pay for literally anything lmao,” wrote one user on TikTok.
      Others mocked the fact the TikTok actually agreed to pay for Salt Bae to come and chop up his steak.
      Rising to fame thanks to a viral video of hims sprinkling salt looking suave, Salt Bae’s chain of Nusr-Et restaurants are known for high prices and decadent gold-wrapped meals.
      But he has courted controversy over the years – with some reviewers slamming his steakhouses as “rip offs”.
      He has opened over 22 restaurants across the US, UK, Greece and Dubai.
      And they remain popular, especially with celebrities – with Bae serving everyone from David Beckham to the late Maradona.
      Fifa launched a probe after Salt Bae someone managed to get onto the pitch during celebrations after the final of the World Cup.
      Argentina scored an incredible victory – outlasting France on penalties after a stunning 3-3 scoreline.
      It was a highly symbolic win that for some cemented Lionel Messi as the greatest football player of all time.
      But as the side tried to enjoy their moment in the sun – there was Salt Bae.
      Bae was pictured hassling Messi for pictures, appeared to snatch the World Cup trophy, and bit one of the player’s medals.
      Fifa confirmed that the chef was not supposed to be allowed on the pitch and launched an investigation.
      And since then Salt has been banned from the US Open and music festival Rolling Loud.
      His followers have also slammed an “uncomfortable” resurfaced Instagram video with Kylian Mbappe.
      And in another video, he can be seen gyrating back and forth while cutting steak for Bayern Munich and Barcelona star Lewandowski.
