Warm up tlamo
The Wärschtlamo ( Upper Franconian for sausage man ) is a typical mobile sausage seller for the city of Hof . He sells Viennese sausages , Knackwurst , Weisswurst and farmers ( Debrecziner ) on the street. To equip a Wärschtlamo a rectangular, as are Bauchladen portable Wärschtlakasten from brass with a charcoal grill , a tin of mustard and a large basket with a handle for Bredla (Upper Franconia for bread ). In the kettle, the Wärschtla (Upper Franconian for sausages ) are heated in steam and then served in a Bredla (bread roll) with mustard. As a rule, the sausages are sold in pairs and without packaging. It is usually consumed in public spaces . The warming men are out Monday to Friday and Saturday mornings in Hof's old town.
In 1881 the first "Wärschtlamo", Johann Georg Hahn, with hot Hofer Wärschtla was sent out from a butcher's that still exists today . Since these are heated in steam and not in water in the specially developed kettle, the kettle is comparatively light and can also be carried on a shoulder strap during operation. He carried this together with the bread basket, which saved the cost of having his own stand. The traditional call of the warm-up lamo is a loud whistle, followed by "Haaß senn sa - kolt wern sa" (they are hot - they get cold).
Today's warming men are also allowed to have a fixed location, nothing has changed significantly in terms of equipment. There are also heat load boxes in which heating takes place in a water bath. Until the 1920s, the number of warming men (there were a few women among them) grew to over 20. Today, five to six of them share the locations in Hof's old town.
A memorial was erected to the Hofer Wärschtlamo at the Sonnenplatz.
