Salt Bae coming to Israel

"Salt Bae" is coming to Israel!


While his reputation seems to have suffered a bit after he inappropriately pushed himself onto the field to celebrate with the Argentinian football team upon winning the World Cup, Salt Bae is still a butcher turned world renown restauranteur serving lavish dishes (such as steaks coated in gold leaf) to the highest of celebrities in his chain of restaurants around the world, and now has Israel in his sights for a new location.

i24 News is reporting that Nusret Gokce, the Turkish restauranteur known affectionately as Salt Bae (because of the way he famously sprinkles salt on the meat) plans to open the 12th restaurant in his chain, and it will be located in Tel Aviv. Nusret announced this in an Instagram announcement of plans for further expansion with a list of cities where he plans to open restaurants.

The big question is if it will be kosher and maybe even mehadrin... likely not.

The prices will surely be ridiculous, considering how expensive his other restaurants are, making one wonder how long the restaurant can possibly last. How many Israelis are there that might be willing to pay the types of prices he has become known to charge?

The news reported what the expected price list will be:




That would be 80nis for a plate of mashed potatoes. I wonder if you order the 1000nis steak of 500nis hamburger if you get some mashed potatoes on the side or if you have to pay 80nis for them. A plate of pasta will run you 320nis. I also wonder if the 1000nis steak comes with the gold leaf or if that is an even more expensive dish. 

Which kashrut organization gives gold leaf a hechsher, and does it need to be checked for bugs like the green leaves do?
