The Turkish chef Nusret G?kce doesn't just sprinkle salt with finesse, he also has a chain of steakhouses across Turkey, Dubai and Abu Dhabi eponymously named Nusr-et.
G?k?e - who grew up in dire poverty - credits his work ethic for his success. "Since I was 14, I worked more than 13 hours a day as a kitchen runner for a butcher," he told NBC, Dubai. "My life hasn't changed now. I still keep going to work from the morning until midnight."
Nine businesses, 600 employees and a flare salt sprinkling Twitter video later and Nusret is all anyone can talk about. The man's got swag. Culinary school does not have a class on condiments, he was clearly just born with it.

The Godfather of all meat deserves his own reality show. No, his own movie trilogy. He's the love child of Zorro and Don Corleone and everything he does is majestic as hell.
