A British man flew to Turkey and bought a steak dinner at Salt Bae’s restaurant for less than the cost of the same dinner in Britain.
Callum Ryan, 23, spotted the cheapest steak on offer at Salt Bea’s British restaurant was a thinly sliced Wagyu sirloin for £95.
Wondering if he could get it cheaper at the original restaurant of the same chain, located in Istanbul, Turkey, he booked a flight from Luton Airport, Londonto Istanbul, Turkey with Wizz Air.
The flight with the budget airline cost him just £17.99.
Once he landed in Istanbul, Callum headed there Salt Bae‘s Nusr-Et Steakhouse and ordered a New York steak, fries, chilli sauce, coca-cola and dessert for £57.95.

In total he spent £75.93, which is £19.07 cheaper than the price of a steak at Salt Bae’s British restaurant.
Callum, a content creator from Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, said: ‘The food was unreal, it was the best steak I’ve ever had.
‘I will definitely go back, the steak alone was worth it.
‘I think I’d rather make the trip to Istanbul if the food there is as good as the restaurant in London, to get away for a weekend.
“I’d rush to his British restaurant.”
This isn’t the first time he’s managed to game the system and get a vacation for less than the price of a meal.
In May, Callum flew to Portugal and bought peri peri chicken for less than £15 – cheaper than the cost of his usual Nando order.
He also flew to Spain for a three-day holiday for less than £100 all-in.
