Currywurst, Berlin

The thick, juicy sausage cut into pieces, which are spread with lots of ketchup and sprinkled with curry powder and paprika. According to the legend, the sauce was invented accidentally by a clumsy itinerant saleswoman which accidentally threw curry powder into the ketchup. Usually it is served with potatoes or individual buns. A snack traditional yet cosmopolitan, perfect after a night of heavy binge. We can find it everywhere but prefer the Krasselts Imbiss.
Fish & Chips, London
Perhaps the greatest contribution of the English international culinary culture is nothing more than fried fish fillet, usually cod, dipped in thick batter, accompanied by fried potatoes and served in cartons with wooden forks. Favorite food of the English working and middle class, delicious and cheap. The fish & chips served perfectly with plenty of salt and vinegar, and many add and ketchup.
