Currywurst might be the only street food worldwide that is honored with a dedicated museum, the Currywurst Museum in Berlin. The original dish from the Fifties is a short sausage, sliced and served with a secret curry sauce and bread. Northern Germany serves a complete meal with a long sausage, French fries, and sour cabbage salad.
