The hottest currywurst in the world

As a trademark and slogan, the snack bar has “the hottest currywurst in the world”. This consists of sausages from the Bochum butcher's Dönninghaus as well as a homemade curry sauce, which is very hot by adding spices (especially fresh Habanero chilis) and (only in the highest levels) pure capsaicin crystals. Due to the fact that pure capsaicin triggers the highest possible sensation of spiciness in humans, the food becomes (at least in the media and according to its own statement) the “hottest currywurst in the world”.
