Thanks Dalstrong for sponsoring this
video. Today I am going to show you guys my experience dining in
Salt Bae's restaurant. Here we go. Nick. -Yo. Holy $1,200 for two people? -When I saw that price i almost had
a heart attack.-There are four of us sitting right here if we get the gold covered rib cap for four
it is one thousand seven hundred fifty dollars. -Best cut in the house I can't lie to you. -Is
it? -It is, it is. -So you recommend the rib cap. -I do. -You're just saying that because I'm paying.
-That's right.
Yeah i would not say it any other way. Right after that the drinks
arrived. Nick ordered the Moscow. That thing was on fire and they
serve it to you with a paper straw. You got a little bit of fire and everything Nick you don't play around, Is that a paper straw. -It's a paper straw with a fire
dangerous. -I like to live on the edge Angel. A few minutes after the $2 ,000 steak arrived
and it was not what we expected. For 2 grand I gotta say I thought it would be way
bigger. Right after the tomahawk arrived. That was rare even though we ordered medium rare.
Now there's nothing wrong with rare steak but if you order medium rare you should get what you
paid for.
The gold steak was cooked perfectly though, thank god because it was not cheap.
Now the funny thing was as soon as I tried everyone including the manager, the waiter, the
chef were all waiting for my reaction, so the pressure was on. But I gave them none I will
say this, is it the best steak I've ever had? Now overall here's what I thought about Salt Bae's
restaurant. Is the restaurant beautiful? Yes it is. Was the service good? No it's actually amazing
one of the nicest and friendliest servers I've ever met.
That i'll give a 10 out of 10. Now the
biggest question is; was this worth it? Well instead of talking about it let me show you. It's my turn.
And these are the steaks i'm gonna be using for today's cook. They do not cost two thousand dollars
each. They are one and a half inches thick they have great marbling on them and to be specific
an australian wagyu marbling score seven. To season them I kept it real simple, a good amount of
salt, followed by freshly ground black pepper and garlic powder. And obviously always season on both
sides. But hey we cannot just eat steaks by itself we gotta have a side dish and I'm making one
that looks extremely expensive, take a look. And to make it it's super easy and here's how. Everything
starts off by boiling some eggs to be specific 14 minutes this will give me a hard-boiled egg which
is exactly what I'm looking for.
Once the time was up I immediately took it out of the water and put
it in an ice bath. However first we gotta separate the egg whites from the yolk .There's a hard way
to do it and an easy one. If you use a spoon it's just a nightmare. The best way is to squeeze it and
pull it out just like this. As you can see in the end it is super easy to separate. Now to make the
filling. Into a food processor I threw in all of the egg yolks, followed by mayo, sour cream, dijon
mustard, a little bit of sriracha, and finished it off with salt, followed by freshly ground black
pepper. Covered everything up and blend everything together. For presentation purposes I'm putting
it in a piping bag. Now the next step is to get the egg whites fully breaded. First into the flour
and remove all of the excess, followed by the egg wash, and finish it off with panko bread crumbs. So
I went ahead and did all of them the only thing left is to go ahead and deep fry it.
I kept the
temperature at 350 degrees fahrenheit went ahead and fry them up until every single one of them was
nicely golden brown. I mean take a look it is just perfect to make it even better I also fried up
some prosciutto. I only fry them up for about 30 seconds, The only thing left now is to put it all
together. So first I added the filling into the eggs, followed by pieces of prosciutto right on top.
For some coloring and flavor I added some chives. But hey we are trying to make this look expensive
so a little bit of gold dust right on top. The gold dust costs nothing, adding this much is less than
a penny.
But hey in the end I was left with this, the most beautiful and elegant side dish I've
made so far. The big question is, does it taste better than it looks? Well we're about to find
out real shortly because remember we still gotta cook those beautiful steaks. But not only that we
need to use this; gold leaf. Exactly what Salt Bae uses on his restaurant. As you can see it's almost
24 karat it is $8.69. We will be wrapping one steak completely with it and we're gonna find out if
this is really worth it or not. Because we're gonna be having one as a control and our second steak
completely filled up with gold leaf. Because now that I have everything ready the only thing left
to do is to go ahead and grill them. I'll first be putting a nice beautiful sear then cooking
them in indirect heat until I reach an internal temperature of 135 degrees fahrenheit and for
that I'll be using my wireless thermometers. So now i say it is enough talking and it is time
to grill these beautiful steaks.
So let's do it! [rock music] Does that look good or what? And before moving
forward I want to thank today's sponsor Dalstrong. There's something to be said about
the perfect knife. The perfect knife is the one that you can afford. Even before Dalstrong
sponsored any of my videos I use them for a reason. They are not only great quality but they are
priced correctly. Take a look at the background. I love Dalstrong now like everything you gotta
have the right tool for the right job.
Take this one for example it is perfect for chopping
vegetables and that's what I like to use it for. This is the butcher's knife and used to be one
of my favorite knives for absolutely everything. However, nowadays I use it more for whenever I'm
slicing big cuts of meat, the curvature right here just makes the job a lot easier. This one is the
slicer currently my favorite knife to use for steaks. Yes for steaks! Even though it's nice and
big it allows me to cut steaks to perfection. You must have a slicer, and this one from the shogun
series is just perfect. And with hundreds of knives in their arsenal Dalstrong has one that will fit
your needs, I guarantee you. So if you are ready to get quality professional and most importantly
affordable knives, check out the link on the description click on it, and go get yourself some.
Because I promise you, you will not be disappointed, I wasn't. Thank you Dalstrong for sponsoring this
video but now it's time to get right back to it. All right everybody here we got our beautiful
feast.
What do you guys think? -I think you put in maximum effort on this dish and the
presentation of it and minimal effort here. This looks like uh you got this at Walmart and
this looks like I don't even know, it it looks like Gordon Ramsay shipped it to you. -Maybe.
-It looks amazing. -Maybe you're right maybe you're wrong. Well let's let's find out which one
tastes better. It's all about the taste yeah? -It's about nothing else. -Are we starting here? -No
we're gonna start with this one from Walmart yeah? All right and then did you guys see the side dish?
-It looks so good. -I wanna, I wanna frame it and put it in my house. -Big shout out to Sony that dude can
cook. This is quite incredible and I'm waiting for you here sonny so we can make a video together.
All right enough talking are you guys ready? I'm very ready. -All right let's go right here please
dig in Leo. -Walmart steaks it is.
-Oh Walmart yes. -Now we got a very simple presentation here. -Doesn't
look like Walmart when you look at it close. -You know. -It doesn't look like Walmart. -I was about to say this
Walmart's steak is pretty damn tender. I'm not gonna lie guys. -Let me know how
you taste yeah. -I hope I don't eat my words. All right well let's find out
right now. Cheers everybody. -Cheers! Oh [ __ ]. -That Walmart steak is real
good everybody. -That's not Walmart that's not Walmart right there. -What do you guys think? 10
out of 10 would recommend. -I, I completely regret calling this steak a Walmart steak. You better Emilio is going to be real pissed at you. -Oh no! -It is fair to say that never judge a book by
its cover.
You guys agree? -Couldn't agree more. -I agree. -This one is my bad. -So that was really
fantastic now we're going to go to this steak right here let's go for it. -No let's do this. -Oh let's do the
side dish? -It's in the middle. -Oh it's in the middle yeah the jewel grab the jewel. Can you guys tell
what this is? -It looks like uh like a baked potato almost. -It's not trust me grab it.
-Oh my god it
even has a little bit of gold on it. -Yeah it does. You got to put the gold everybody today is a fancy
day that's all I can say about that. -That's exactly what I was gonna say today is a fancy day. -The
wonderful thing about that gold is only cost me five bucks, so that's good. -Some cheap gold.
-Yeah that's right. Yeah cheers everybody, -Cheers. -Oh wow. -Wow -Wow. -Triple wow everybody. That
is amazing. -Super delicious. -The flavors just pop right out at you. The first
thing that hits me the crunchiness of the actual skin and now that I bite it I
can taste that it's an egg.
-Yeah of course a deviled egg. by the way. Here's the deal usually when
you have deviled egg it's just one texture and by deep frying the crust of the egg it
makes it nice and crunchy, and then a little bit of that prosciutto, it's not bacon by the
way, on the top it's just perfect. It's a very, very nice egg. You guys ready for the real deal?
Let's go. Let's go for the real deal. -I thought this was gonna be a bad steak, I thought this is gonna be
an amazing steak which does look like an amazing steak, but now I'm worried.
-All right let's
give this a try and let you guys know cheers. -Cheers. It's a nice steak it's very delicious.
-It's good but it's like the same. It's the same as that one. -You know I'm with Angel on
this you know. This one is presented a lot more beautifully has gold on it but I can't taste
the difference. -This is like when you eat with your eyes. -What did I say everybody? You see you
heard it from them not for me. That's the results the gold does absolutely nothing. -Not at all
it makes zero percent difference. -But what does makes a difference is that now you guys owe me
twenty five hundred dollars for the meal. Payout. -Angel, angel that's our ride.
-Oh Guga thank you, thank you. -Come on! -See you later. -Anyway guys, those are the results I hope
