Frankfurter or Wiener? How to know which one to order? Watch our latest YouTube video for one way of settling upcoming Wurst issues — With special thanks to Chisayo Lewis for her hand-made crafty craft creation of Igudesman & Joo. The other way demands more intellectual capacities: Follow the rules and memorize exceptions.
When in Frankfurt, order Wiener.
When in Vienna, order Frankfurter.
Now, let’s turn towards exceptions: when in Berlin, order Currywurst. When in Stuttgart, order Bratwurst. Actually, there’s an exception to this exception: What you really should order in Stuttgart is Spätzle. Or a Mercedes.
… and that’s about it. All you need to know. See? Easy. Follow the rules and memorize exceptions.
