Ex-boxing champion accidentally orders $1500 steak on holiday

A former boxing legend says he woke up in a puddle of “tears” after realising he spent $1500 on a single piece of ribeye steak.

British Boxing legend Ricky Hatton has joked he woke up this morning in a “puddle of f***ing tears” after realising he spent $1506 on a piece of Kobe Ribeye steak.

The 40-year-old racked up a food bill worth a whopping $3157 with his girlfriend Charlie while on holiday and dining at the Nammos Restaurant in Mykonos, Greece.

But the ex-boxer saw the funny side of it as he posted a before and after picture of him demolishing his dinner, as well as a snap of his huge bill.

Taking to Instagram earlier today, he said: “Just woke up this morning in a puddle of f***ing tears.

“That’s what you get for being a fat greedy little sh*t.”

He later added: “I just ordered it. Didn’t look. Ha ha.

“The bill came and the fun police (how Hatton describes his girlfriend, Charlie) just started laughing. Wow.”

Hatton — who was filmed partying out in Tenerife last week — also ordered a bottle of champagne worth almost $811, as well as $200 for a bottle of prosecco.

If the former two-weight world champion was in the mood for seafood, he could have had lobster for $298, giant carabineros scarlet prawns for $405, or locally caught grouper fish for $334.

And it seems as though past customers were less than impressed with the price at Nammos judging by reviews left on TripAdvisor.

One diner said: “Over rated, pretentious, over priced, poor attitude by staff, poor service.”

Another commented: “Absolutely disgraceful waste of money and by far the worst beach club experience we have ever encountered and we travel extensively.”

A third added: “The service is unbelievably poor at Nammos, from the minute you arrive until you leave. The food is OK, but definitely not worth the price.”
