Adlon-Currywurst
Taste a classic local dish that dates back to 1949 at Hotel Adlon Kempinski. Herta Heuwer prepared the very first currywurst in her snack stand in Berlin-Charlottenburg while mixing a sauce consisting of tomato paste, curry powder, Worcestershire sauce and some other ingredients. Shortly afterwards, this new snack became especially popular and it still is today. The Hotel's "Adlon-Currywurst" comes with its own special sauce, a well-kept Kempinski secret recipe. The hotel sells approximately 6,136 currywursts each year to guests from all over the world.
