A FISH and chip shop boss inspired by Salt Bae wraps his cod in a layer of 24-carat gold.

And Ozan Bakici thinks his sparkling seafood supper is a world first.

He batters the fish traditionally before covering it in gold leaf he bought for £90 — and also sprinkles chips with a gold spray.

Ozan, 27, said: “It was all completely edible. Gold leaf is very tricky to work with though.

“It is thinner than paper so if you move too quickly or aren’t careful, it will break and you will lose all than money.”

The former electrician got his idea from social media sensation Salt Bae — aka Turkish chef Nusret Gökçe, known for his flamboyant seasoning technique.

He sells a gold-covered steak for £1,500 and Ozan said: “I wanted to create something like that would draw customers in and give them a bit of a ‘wow factor’.

I wanted to put my twist on Salt Bae’s creations by creating a golden cod — I’m calling myself Salt and Vinegar Bae.”

Ozan opened The Anchor in Bexley, South East London, a year ago and already has a huge following online.

He added: “We’ve had visitors from the US and New Zealand. We’re far beyond a local chippy.”
