UPDATED MAY 13, 2019 5:32 PM EDT

J Balvin turned 34 on May 7, 2019 and the celebrations have taken a life of their own. It's been a worldwide trip, just like his music! The Colombian superstar and reggaeton trailblazer celebrated with an exclusive birthday dinner at one of Miami’s top restaurants, Brickell-based Nusr-Et Steakhouse, a restaurant helmed by none other than Salt Bae himself, Nusret Gökçe (if you will recall, Salt Bae was a meme-sensation at the beginning of 2018). Salt Bae turned up the charm and conducted a one-on-one cooking lesson between the singer and himself.

Check out the video to find out if the singer is as skilled in the kitchen as he is on the stage, as well as more highlights from the night.

J Balvin’s fiesta reportedly saw him joined by several close friends, surrounded by multiple decadent dishes and a -oh, you know- a 24 karat gold covered steak, made specially for the birthday boy. The main course was followed by a dance party where a DJ played international hits. The festivity was definitely one for the books, with Salt Bae even hand-feeding the singer at one point!
