But... couldn’t they just... cook it rare so the blood tastes stronger and thus gives that metallic taste without wasting your money??? Like why would you go through extra steps for a faint metallic taste that you could get in the first place? That’s like if I wanted my walls painted white, so I start with white walls, paint it black THEN paint it white again, like wtf?
But that would suggest there is some sort chemical reaction happening right? Maybe a byproduct of cooking the meat is getting in the middle? I'm really puzzled as to how this perceived taste happens, could it be a psychological thing?
Fun fact: Coating food in gold was quiet popular in southern Europe during the 15th and 16th centuary due to the fact that not only it showed one's wealth, but also because gold was said to be healthy for your heart - the latter was more like a marketing trick rather than some medieval medicine knowledge in order to make rich people fall for this scam. When the price for gold started to rise thanks to that, some of those nations there outlawed this practice, so the cooks had to come up with a new idea as a replacement for the gold and eventually stumpled upon the Moorish technique of coating meat in the powder of crushed old bread and frying it in oil afterwards. Turns out that this practice had many benefits in comparison to the banned gold coating, such as better taste, lower price and the option to utilize otherwise stale foodstuff. That's how schnitzel became popular in the western world. Meanwhile, over 500 years later, some dipshits take pride in getting scammed with a multiple centuaries old trick.
So Salt Bae opened up a restaurant next door to the place I worked for in Brickell, Miami. They called the cops 3 times on their customers for refusing to pay the absurd bill. One guy made the news for it because all he ordered was 2 drinks and a steak to share and it came out to $700 and he told the manager he'd rather pay for bail than pay them for the shitty gold covered steak with kosher salt on it. Then covid hit. His restuarant is basically closed at this point and hated by the entire community back home. This video is amazing.
If I remember correctly, Gordon Ramsey said that there is absolutely no reason that a single dish should go over $50. Also, if they're dumb enough to pay $600 for a $30 cut of beef wrapped in $1 of gold, they probably don't pay in cash, it's credit.
You can take a small loss flipping a $15 steak just fine, so long as you can fleece anybody into paying for a bowl of chips and dip that would be worth half as much retail from a grocery store. Between ice and the ratio of syrup to carbonated water you’re barely getting half of a can of soda for the price of 2 from the fountain. Most people will probably go their entire lives without knowing that this is what keeps the lights on.
@@kirknay Actually, it can effect the bottom line pretty severely as very few people actually just want bare minimum survival wages. Not only that, many would want benefits and in some cases pursue litigation with financial support from other groups or their own coworkers in order to force the owners to give them benefits. Etc etc etc. Theres a reason when a business enters hardships, it starts getting rid of employees instead of keeping employees and trying to radically change the habits of the business. Giant corporations do it and they have all sorts of extra capital. If it didn’t effect the bottom line in a severe way, they wouldn’t feel the need to let people go. Especially as by doing so you’re likely willfully destroying a relationship with a skilled employee who more than likely wont come back when you decided you’re secure enough to start hiring again.
I'm more impressed in that steak cook for upselling a literal piece of meat by ridiculous proportions to an idiot rich dude because he know he'll pay for it. Dudes profit margins are wild we all know he's cackling
Have your ever had an amazing piece of meat? I’m not talking no 600 dollar bullshit. That’s stupid 😂. I’m talking like 50 60 bucks on a Tomahawk steak, shit is amazing. Especially if you cook it perfect.
I barely have money for rent or food and I work my ass off. I have kids and this system is crumbling around us worse everyday, and then I see shit like this and it makes me so angry. I can't help it. I try so hard, but I fear so heavily for the world my daughters will grow to know.
I’m single 22 years old I work too a lot of hours and I budget wisely but damn bro I’m just so mad for my parents bringing me into this world not financially prepared. I have friends who would spend money on stupid shit like partying and drinking and like Muta said designer clothes it’s just boggling. I realized time is money and it’s better to save it because if you spend ur hard cash ur throwing away ur working hours.
There's a saying in Eastern Europe: When rich ppl don't know what's good, they just get the most expensive and call it good. (Implies that not everything that's expensive is actually good).
@@MoreEvilThanYahweh your right I’m a idiot for buy the iPhone 12 but I dont use my phone for anything but texting and games so I don’t really need everything you can do with android but I totally should of bought a cheaper phone
I honestly love this new trend of posting your reciepts of getting ripped off as a flex. It's great entertainment value and they are obvious to it which makes it even funnier.
I'll never understand the mindset of "I am so insecure that I need to eat and shit overpriced gold to prove to people I'm worth something." Restaurants for rich people can charge obscene prices like that because they know their patrons absolutely do not understand the value of money or what things are worth because they don't care. Money is not an issue for them so they don't even think about it. Yet these are the same people who will be the first to cry when their taxes are raised even though they wouldn't even feel it.
I make furniture of a quality rich idiots would spend far too much on..... I went into a shop that was levels below what I make and asked how much some of the pieces were.....as there were no price tags The lady said if I had to ask I was in the wrong shop.............
“I sprinkle diamonds on everything I eat, two reasons: one, it’s the most baller shit you could possibly do to your food and two, makes my dookie twinkle, man.” - Chapelle
I know you're showing expensive receipts, but I'm dying at the red bull and coca cola light. $11 and $9. This dude is a straight hustler. He literally bought something that you can buy in the store for cheap and then just resold it at 3x+ the price
I only bought expensive food once. Managed to get my medical degree and I went to Japan on holiday with my girlfriend. In Kyoto we bought ourselves a cut of Kobe beef for dinner and it still hurt my cheap ass, but I really have to agree on the "shared memories" part of the vid
Just hope he's putting it into real estate, the market, and/or home defense and prepping. A guy with that kind of racket deserves to rise to the top. Social Darwinism at its finest.
@@manictiger as a turk nusret from what i hear started from the bottom as a young butcher and basically knowingly is fleesing rich people now and thats because hes realized rich people who didnt work for their money will spend any type of money as long as you make them feel special when your serving them. Cool guy tho overall
I endorse anyone's right to spend their money on stupid stuff. However when you buy stupid stuff and then brag about it to everyone on social media you deserve whatever mockery is coming your way.
" Twitter users are disgusting. " would've been more accurate. Adding additional descriptors like " rich " is just beating a horse that's already been mortally wounded.
As a poor person, I always assumed that a real rich person didn't spend money hiring employees they don't need, because they rather save money... Of course, since money is time, they probably don't have time to cook, so a chef would probably be one of those. :O Mind blown.
When Muta was like "You can buy the $11 sheets of gold and put it on your top ramen", genuinely sent me into a fit of laughter so intense I had to pause Doom Eternal. Holy shit, that was golden
I had the pleasure of growing up in one of the wealthiest communities on the East Coast just outside of New York and I couldn't wait to get out of that town when I got out of high school
To make things even more hilarious, people are mad at Salt Bae for charging high prices when customers WILLINGLY walk into his restaurants and WILLINGLY order the food which they know is expensive. Why?
at this point, people know salt baes food sucks. it's common knowledge that he overcharges for shitty steak. so anyone who genuinely goes and thinks it'll be different for them, then that's on them also do these restaurants not have a menu where you can see the prices? and if you think it's too overcharged you can just pay for the drinks you got and leave?
Funnily enough, in a Hardrock cafe in Venice they sell a burger with the beef wrapped in gold leaf for almost nothing extra and dirt cheap for food in that area
“poor people logic” Translation: “I want to spend the equivalent of someone’s rent on a meal purely for the aesthetics of having gold and not for the actual taste of what i’m eating just so I can shame people that can’t spend money on useless things, and yes i’m indeed a huge fucking idiot”
I'm poor and if I was going to blow my money on food I'm flying myself out to Guga and paying him to make me really good food for a week. At lest then I would be getting value for my dollar. Blowing it at a crap restraint that is not even really good meat or not from someone youtube famous, why bother?
When people come from nothing, and suddenly get money in their hands they often overcompensate VS someone who has gone through the process in depth and endured the grind.
People who blow this kind of money always end up going broke. Sure this dude is buying $600 steaks now, but you'll be seeing him eating out of your dumpster in about 6 months.
You remain rich by not spending your all your money. Some people just dont get that, and whilst I'm not rich by any imagination i have enough financial sense to understand blowing cash limits me long term in my savings/retirement
Great, would be very happy to take a picture with him and say "remember this guy? He called everyone poor and now he's homeless" (this is a joke you twitter poop brains)
Rich people buy $600 steaks the same way poor people buy $6 burgers. Regular people who lease their car, are paying off mortage, etc are much closer to going broke than rich people are with everything paid off and passive income streams.
I remember in a science book I read as a kid it said that a thumb sided nugget of gold can be flattened out into a foot ball field sided sheet of gold leaf.
One thing I remind myself if I ever get to point of having this much money is that I'll never pay someone else to do something I can do on my own unless I don't know how to lol
When I went to the US, I ate a golden burger that a portion of its profit went to charity. The burger literally didn't taste different at all and they COVERED this thing in gold foil but I assume that was the point as its for charity. The burger also wasn't overpriced at all being under $40 for the rest of the meal that it came with. If you're paying like $3,000 for a steak, that shit better be wagyu because wagyu has actual value over slapping gold on standard quality meat. I've only eaten wagyu one in my life and I will probably never eat it again as its just so expensive however I understand there is an actual difference compared to normal beef and I respect that. I'm perfectly fine eating regular food and I always will be.
@@spaghetti5914 pure gold, is actually really expensive, gold combined with silver has lower purity and is cheaper, and foils of gold are extremely thin and very light, so they don’t cost that much, especially if the gold is not of the purest kind
lmaooo goes up to random person out in public "OH, and you have a cellphone??? I have SEVEN cellphones!!! you will NEVER know what its like to have SEVEN cellphones!! I feel good, and you feel bad!!, also my ham sandwich at lunch was 700 bucks and yours was 5. mine is better."
Trying to wrap my head around the vernacular used in that initial meme, it's like swamp English, which is impressive because English is already pretty swampy
Fun fact: “Brand name” apparel like Michael Kors for example, make semi-expensive merchandise with the initials all over it because it’s designed to make poor people think they’re flexing on other poor people for having money.
I remember when I was a kid, on Christmas my family made this marshmallow tower with little edible gold flakes on it. It tasted good, but the gold was appealing because I was a kid and thought “gold=rich”. Probably one of the least expensive good looking foods 3yo me ever had.
I get eating rich once in a while, like 60-70$ with a friend or two. But when your dinner cost more than a respectable computer..... Well, I draw the line there!!!!!
Back in the days we could build a baller PC for the price of that steak alone, as a matter rod fact I remember building my first PC, it had an rx570 and a Ryzen 3300. I was more than happy, nowdays that's the price of the GPU alone
@@33up24 You mean the grafics card? I build my pc last year the CPU was around 400€ , the grafics card was 500€xd Fucking bitcoin mining....... Edit: I confused CPU with GPU xc sorry!
Why go to salt bae when you want to have a NORMAL steak😂. Pretty sure, steak from local family restaurant tastes way better than salt bae's "premium gold plated raw meat".
@@bibekkarki475 Do you think his restaurant is called "Salt Bae Restaurant"? Do you think everyone is a nerd who lives on social media? People walk into a restaurant on a night out. They pick one that looks high end. They order a steak, priced $100-$200. They receive their steaks wrapped in gold and assume it's part of the presentation. They they receive a $5000 bill.
Most luxury brands dont at all cater to actual rich people, but rather people with some degree of money that are willing to spend a ( for them ) high amount of money on something as a status. You can openly see this companies like Louis Vitton and this restaurant is not so different.
A service charge is an amount that is added to your bill in a restaurant to pay for the work of the person who comes and serves you. Most restaurants add a 10 percent service charge to the check. There's a 15% service charge which is added to the total bill. You can leave a gratuity instead of paying the service charge. *You can leave a gratuity instead of paying the service charge* OH THANK GOD, I almost end up financially crippled...
"1 Orange Juice 11.00" It has to be an inside joke amongst rich people. Like they know they're wasting massive amounts of money but it just doesn't matter because they're that wealthy. Like no human being on Earth looks at an $11 orange juice and thinks "Oh that's normal and reasonable"
I think the thing is they just don't care. It has no value and doesn't mean anything to them. They don't look at the price, they just go somewhere they wanna go and order what they want with no second thought
So the funniest part about the "Salt Bae" food and its cost? I've read the reviews on his places. Half of them have gone under and/or been restructured because the food is so overwhelmingly *bad* that even rich people with no sense of taste think the food tastes awful.
Yep it's trash, I've ate at one of his places in Cali and between the prices and garbage quality I walked out part way through. The staff half-ass tried stopping me so I think it happens a lot.
That steak from the receipt is 630 GBP, which is actually more expensive; it's equivalent to $870 USD or $1,094 CAD. The entire meal shakes out to $2,346 USD / $3066 CAD
I have gone to a few restaurants where your meal would be about $100 + alcohol, per person, and they were extremely delicious and well prepared. I have never had something that cost more than that, but it just seems like the food that costs more than that (with some exceptions, of course, since I have never eaten the food) that all you're paying for after that point is "the experience". My mother used to work at a restaurant that was one of those that people will come from all over the east coast to eat, rich people and people having big celebrations in their life almost exclusively. It was very expensive, and it was a beautiful restaurant, with live music, and impeccable service. The food was delicious, but almost all of your bill was going for everything not on your table. That kind of thing is wonderful, if you're celebrating something special, but I just don't see the point beyond that.
I'm not gon lie, if i was rich I'd definitely try all kinds of expensive foods at least once, wagyu and things like that. Still not paying 600 for eating gold tho
You can get Wagyu online and shipped out to you for much cheaper. Tried it once and got two steaks for like 150? yeah it's still expensive but if you wanna do something fancy for like an anniversary or whathaveyou it's not a bad deal.
@@cazikman i know, still think it'd be different getting a waguy thats professionally cooked and served. I mean, there's a big difference in the steak i cook myself and the one i get eating out. But i got you
@@thedancingpipestuffer assuming you're not fucking up your steak the main difference between the steak you eat at home and at a restaurant is purely the quality of the cut.
lived at a place where meat was really accessible for a while, like, I ate some fancy shit. Wagyu, ostrich, alligator... (I was a teen and lemme say my country didnt give a shit about endeagered species) and let me tell you: tastes the same as cheap stuff. Sometimes worse because you were expecting a fucking experience and it's just... food. Meat. I'd rather spend 20 bucks on shitty greasy guilt food once in a while, I literally cant imagine a reason for anything edible to cost 600 dollars
My favorite part about the steak post was the lady defending her elitism by calling everyone racist and sexist when like, no we're just commenting on your elitism, grossness of that nasty ass steak and how you obviously got scammed lol
@BaxiTube The elites of the world that control everything behind the scenes wants that, the more division, the more control they have on the population.
that's how many people respond to criticism on twitter. just dismiss it all, color the people calling you out as sexist/racists and keep doing you. in a world where everyone is sexist and racist no one is sexist and racist. Slowly they're killing effectiveness of the word and making people take it less seriously.
@@Teh0nlyMessiaH Try to pull that in southeast asia and they will gladly say "Yes, I'm a racist and will do racist things" if it means it will keep their whiny mouth shut.
Perfectly pictured Muta sitting in a nice restaurant, half-smiling, and Raiden slicing a steak in the air into 100 pieces, then landing perfectly on the plate (the steak). Then Muta lets out his beautiful laugh as gratitude. Good times
Like me and my family always say. "If a very good vet can bring it back. It's not cooked enough." another is "if I poke it and it moons. It's still too raw."
Gold foil isn't just for food it's just so thin you CAN put it on food... it's used on gold furniture and other things that you dont want in solid gold because it would be to expensive or heavy.
The best part about tomahawk steak, is that it's just a bone-in ribeye with the extra bone left on. In which if you're paying by weight, you're paying more for basically no reason. Bone can add flavor but all the bone left on a tomahawk steak doesn't add any, as it's not being cooked into or by the meat.
My greatest experiences eating out: 1. Eating £5 cheese burgers and mojitoes on the bonnet of a friend's car with the boys. 2. Sharing a tesco meal deal with my girlfriend while walking in a public park listening to TikTok by ke$ha.
"Want to know what's the most rare, and scarce material in the entire universe? its wood. We are the only ones known to posses it" Idk who said this or where I heard it but its some solid facts.
I’ll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, two quarter Porkies with cheese, one McGrease, no cheese, Meaty McMeat Meat Meat, cheese, and Appley Pie with meat and a large soda.
I used to cut meat at a grocery store. I regularly cut and sold high quality tomahawk ribeyes that cost anywhere from $30-$50 depending on the thickness of the cut. I’ve seen gourmet restaurants selling tomahawk ribeyes for $150+. I get that restaurants are about the experience and not just the food, but people should know that with a bit of knowledge and practice you can make your own steak dinner at home that’s just as good if not better than most steakhouses for a fraction of the price. And as a lover of food it pains me to see a perfectly good steak wrapped in nasty edible gold. Pure debauchery.
I get better meat in the bowl of ramen I make everyday. At that, I'll never understand why they think expensive means good. No, no, a local restaurant is by far the best experience, nothing tastes better than food from a family owned restaurant.
@@theghost9808 yeah exactly. paying more usually means a higher quality product due to better quality materials being used and the product being made by someone who has better skills and/or will put more effort in. but there is of course an upper limit to that, where going beyond a certain price doesn't actually mean it's better quality. I think the hardest thing is figuring out where that limit is for each thing you're paying for... and of course who is charging a higher price for better quality and who is simply charging a higher price because they can get away with it. and $600 for a steak is just taking the piss
@@flossimoth the worst thing is the way the treat the food like it is some sort of play item like at least treat what I eat with respect in front of me and sure they kind of looked good but my entire family ate at this semi fancy restaurant 6 people and still payed less than £100 even rent in bloody London if you live in a reasonable place is like £800-1000 so they are paying 2 months worth of rent and all other living costs in a single night.
The only reason I could maybe think of how gold could enhance a meal, is in the cooking process. Gold is an amazing conductor, so maybe you can make a mad steak with a little gold for the perfect temperature. But gold on finished food is just a very expensive risk factor, since you can easily choke on it and there's even historical records of people using gold leaves as a fancy method for suicide.
Smart rich people on Twitter: *have some broke college intern running their account 24/7 and impersonating them whilst they're busy going on yacht rides or holidaying out in the Bahamas or evading taxes.* Dumb rich people: "Hehehe, these plebs wish they could be eating this overpriced steak with gold foil right about now."
The only time I've had gold on something is at a really good coffee shop in Coloma, CA, where gold was first discovered in california. So it makes sense there as decor on food
Yeah people used to make poke fun at me for not going to bars as much. Not going on trips out of the country and everything when people were saving for trips. Now I have a house and then are in apartments with roommates crying about how the world is unfair. No I just didn’t spend 100 dollars a weekend on alcohol or 3000 dollars a year on going to Hawaii or Nassau. Over 5 years that really put me ahead. Don’t think about what youre missing while others are acting like they know what their doing just live your own life and set your own goals. It’s the only way for you to be happy
Shit like this is an experience designed for poor people to hype up, save up the cash, have immediate buyers remorse, then try to make it up by getting likes on social media.
