Nusret Gokce, better known as Salt Bae, is grabbing headlines yet again. No, not for sprinkling salt this time. The famous Turkish chef went for a walk in a park recently and posted a video online from his outing. Rather outlandish in his ways, the famed chef has left everyone confused with the choice of his outfit.
Salt Bae, in the clip now going viral, can be seen feeding squirrels and birds as he spends time around a park on a bright day. Why he would wear a trash bag on his day out, is one question netizens are asking. Yes, he swapped his t-shirt for a garbage bin liner and headed to the park. The rest of his look included a pair of his trademark shades, a sleek hairstyle, and a pair of shorts.
While he was at it, Salt Bae did some impressive pull-ups, too. The clip was shared on Instagram by him but later crossed over to Twitter, thanks to avid users of the internet.

If you didn’t know already, Salt Bae charges quite a fortune for the dishes in his many restaurants. His newly opened UK restaurant came into the spotlight due to its exorbitant prices. To the long list of eateries he owns, the social media sensation and ace butcher-cum-restaurateur opened the Nusr-Et Steakhouse in London. The glamorous fine dining outlet was scorned by many netizens and popular restaurants after an invoice from the restaurant circulated on the web. One meal at the restaurant would cost a customer 1800 pounds or about Rs 1.8 lakh.
