Mustafa's Gemüse Kebap
Kreuzberg
The Mehringdamm vegetable-kebab queue that any İstanbullu visitor asks about.
Berlin's most-photographed Currywurst stand, Mehringdamm, 1981.
Curry 36 is the Currywurst counter on Mehringdamm in Kreuzberg that has run continuously since 1981, the address most-photographed for the format, and the operator that has refused to franchise outside its small Berlin network. The sausage is the West-Berlin variant, pork, no skin, the curry-ketchup applied table-side. Standing-only at the kerbside windows, takeaway-only inside. For the audience the question is not 'is Currywurst worth seeking out' but 'is the original variant different from the airport version', and Curry 36 is the address that demonstrates the answer.
Order mit Darm (with skin) or ohne Darm (without skin), Berlin Currywurst is traditionally ohne. Pair with Pommes Schranke (mayo + ketchup).
