Officers delivered a summons to Bui at his home on the morning of Nov. 16, 2021, five days after he posted a video on his Facebook account in which he imitated Turkish celebrity chef and restaurateur Nusret Gökçe, a social media star better known as "Salt Bae."
Salt Bae was recorded on camera in November 2021 hand-feeding a pricey chunk of gold-coated steak at his London restaurant to Vietnam’s minister of public security, To Lam, and his entourage when they stopped there after a United Nations climate change conference in Scotland.
The video was removed from Salt Bae’s TikTok account about 30 minutes after a Vietnamese activist shared it on his Facebook page, though an RFA report on the video caught the attention of followers who wondered how a high-ranking government official could afford a steak that cost 1,450 pounds ($1,975) on a monthly salary of roughly U.S $660.
In his video clip, Bui refers to himself as “Onion Leaf Bae” and dramatically sprinkles spring onions into a bowl of soup at his noodle stand, mimicking the signature move of the celebrity chef, who writhed ostentatiously as he sprinkled salt on To’s steak.
