A woman’s extraordinary fine dining experience left Mzansi social media users absolutely dumbfounded.
Good ol' steak and chips is a much loved and delicious meal, which is no wonder why many gravitate towards it on a restaurant menu. However, one woman got the shock of her life when the waiter brought her a thick, uncooked steak. The meal was accompanied by a granite rock slab on which to sear the steak on herself.

@Zinhleputinn took to Twitter to share images as well as detail the uncommon dining style when she realised what she had actually ordered.
“I ordered a stone steak not knowing that the “stone” means I have to cook it myself. The waiter told me something about cooking but I didn’t think he meant I have to do it. My food is now here and lord I have to cook it... I have to cook,” said Zinhle.

She revealed that she was in Algarve, Portugal, and advised South Africans to avoid ordering the meal if they happen to find themselves there.
In true Mzansi fashion, peeps could not help but poke fun at the idea of having to cook your own meal at a restaurant and still have to pay for it. Check out some of their comments on the post:

Salt Bae’s restaurant sells R30k steak cooked by chef
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that Nusret Gokce, who is better known as Salt Bae, went viral on social media with a video of him extravagantly sprinkling salt on a piece of steak.
He opened a series of restaurants all over the world and his London restaurant, Nusr Et, made the headlines when it was reported that it sold a huge tomahawk steak for a whopping R30 000 ($1 975).
However, the restaurant is back in the news after an advert it posted for a chef revealed that despite the high prices, they were expecting staff to work for low wages.
