Anytime you are not in Germany, currywurst is a dish that there just is not enough around for satisfaction. Some renditions are around town but fall flat, even in good environments. Here at Grand Central Market, the environment is great and the dish is done right. Berlin Currywurst is originally from Los Angeles, but has also set up another shop in New York City’s Chelsea Market. It offers a fairly compact list of options, something of a necessity for this bustling location with so many choices.

Dive straight in and make one with the original style bratwurst and original curry sauce (below), served with bread. The menu lets you dictate your sausage and your sauce, so follow your original with the käse (filled with cheese) on your second visit. Curry spice levels can be adjusted as well, and 3 out of 4 was already giving great kick.

Add a side of fries (above), knowing that one of life's simple pleasures is dipping one in both good curry sauce and mayonnaise, which is available in a squeeze bottle.

Most importantly, the little stand has a beer and wine license, and a few selections of German beer. Sausage and beer is not rocket science, but it kind of is at the same time.
