My favorite place to eat in Düsseldorf is CURRY, at Hammerstrasse 2 – across the street from Der Neue Zollhof, the Frank Gehry buildings next to the harbor. It is about a 15-20 minute walk down the Rhine from Altstadt. The menu is pretty much limited to currywurst, bratwurst, and pommes, with a few other sides and desserts available. I’d describe currywurst as a sausage with curry ketchup on it. The pommes are hand cut – you’ll frequently see the waiters bringing in crates of fresh potatoes. Other sauces are available – they’ll even serve you a platter with 4 different sauces. Decent bottled beer selection. Friendly wait staff. When visiting friends in Düsseldorf, we always begin our walk along the Rhine with a trip to CURRY. The food is pretty inexpensive, and tastes great.
