Must order: A mixed injera platter for two, scooped by hand, with honey wine
Tip: Order one platter fewer than your headcount; portions are communal and the vegan side of the menu is the sleeper strength.
Address: Gutleutstraße 13, 60329 Frankfurt am Main
Der Fette Bulle grills Frankfurt's most argued-about burgers on Kaiserstraße, with hand-cut fries and vegan patties holding their own since 2013.
Order: The cheeseburger with chilli cheese fries; the falafel burger for the meat-free
Tip: A second branch on Oeder Weg serves the Nordend; the Kaiserstraße original is louder and closer to the station crowds.
