Best Worscht in Town scales Frankfurt currywurst from mild to the feared FBI sauce, Lars Obendorfer's Grüneburgweg stand grown from a 1970 snack cart.
Try: Currywurst with heat levels up to the notorious FBI sauce
Tip: Sauces climb from Bissi Prickeln to a claimed 1,200,000 SCU; sign the waiver of common sense above level C at your own risk.

Gref-Völsings has made Frankfurt's Rindswurst since 1894, and its Ostend Braterei window still sells them hot with a roll at lunchtime on weekdays.
Try: Rindswurst, hot from the Braterei window
Tip: The all-beef sausage was born here in 1894; eat it standing with mustard and bread, then buy a vacuum pack for home.
