A Brit flew to Turkey and bought a steak dinner at Salt Bae restaurant for less than the cost of the same dinner in the UK.
Callum Ryan, 23, saw that the cheapest steak on offer at the Salt Bea restaurant in the UK was a thinly sliced wagyu tenderloin for £95.
He wondered if he could get it cheaper at the original sister restaurant, based in Istanbul, Turkey, and booked a flight from Luton Airport, London, to Istanbul, Turkey, with Wizz Air.
The flight on the budget airline cost him just £17.99.
Once he landed in Istanbul, Callum went to Salt Bae’s Nusr-Et Steakhouse and ordered a New York steak, chips, chutney, coke and dessert for £57.95.

Salt Bae, or Nusret Gökçe, (pictured) went viral in 2017 after a video of him finishing a salt steak in a unique way exploded.
In total, he spent £75.93, which is £19.07 cheaper than the price of a steak at Salt Bae restaurant in the UK.
Callum, a content creator from Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, said: “The food was incredible, it was the best steak I have ever had in my life.”
‘I will definitely return, the steak itself was already worth it.
“I think I’d rather make the trip to Istanbul if the food there is as good as the restaurant in London for a weekend.”
“I would rush to their restaurant in the UK in a hurry.”
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.

He also flew to Spain for a three-day holiday for less than £100 in total.
