On the start of Euro 2012 on a Friday afternoon, I decided
to have a lunch stop at a cool restaurant called WVRST.
WVRST is positioned to be a modern, hip restaurant offering
the best in sausages, fries, and beer.
What intrigued me to this restaurant is that I love sausages, but they
are all made of pork, which I no longer eat due to biblical reasons. WVRST happens to have a diverse selection of
sausages made from not only pork, but also beef, lamb, chicken, vegetarian and
even game meats like duck, venison, and even kangaroo (!) meats.
The way this restaurant works is that you start off with a
choice of how you want your sausage sandwich to be styled. You can choose the currywurst option, which
is served with country bread and a tomato curry sauce, or the straight toasted
bun option, which is a bakery fresh roll that complements the sausage
well. On the toasted bun, you can
choose two toppings, ranged from sweet sautéed onions, sauerkraut, sautéed
jalapenos and sweet peppers.
I decided to have the traditional “Merguez” sausage ($6),
which is a sausage made from lamb and harissa.
I took the country bun option and I have it topped with onions and sweet
peppers. It was very delicious,
tantalizing, well seasoned, and a great alternative option to the usual pork
sausage. Along with the sausage I
paired it with their duck-fat fries ($4.50), which was crispy, scrumptious, and
delicious rolled up in one neat package.
The meal was very satisfying and it makes me want to come back for more.
If you are craving sausages and is willing to go for a
culinary adventure, WVRST is the place to be.
Great food, great service, and good times.
