Berlin Currywurst, German street food comes to town
L.A., land of danger dogs, fusion tacos and more varieties of food trucks than anyone cares to count, appears to have an insatiable appetite for street food.
At least that's what the founders of Silver Lake's newest eatery, Berlin Currywurst (menu), are hoping as they bring the traditional taste of Germany's favorite fast food to Sunset Junction.
On a recent afternoon, Lena and Büntemeyer pushed out glossy white plates half-covered with steaming piles of thick-sliced sausage over the threshold from kitchen to counter. The sausage is smothered in the rich crimson of the curry sauce, like ketchup on steroids, with two hearty slices of rustic German farmer's bread standing vigil on the side. Paper-lined baskets of fritten — thick-cut French fries topped with sautéed diced onions — followed, being carried out to the hungry patrons parked on vintage schoolhouse chairs at unstained wood-plank tables.
Jum! Ja!
