Turkish internet sensation ‘Salt Bae’ casts vote in style

Turkish internet sensation Nusret Gökçe, better known as ‘Salt Bae’, ‘drizzled’ his vote in style early Monday morning in Istanbul, as Turks across the country flock to cast their ballots in the referendum on a presidential system in Turkey.

Gökçe boasts a whopping 6 million followers on social media, with whom he shared a photo of himself from inside the ballot box, casting his vote in his own unique style.

The social media phenomenon and co-founder of Turkey’s global Nusr-et chain of grill houses, became a household name earlier this year when a video showcasing his charismatic way of sprinkling salt on a piece of meat, a signature move, went viral.
