Deutschland Curry - SW 5th and Stark

Spring is in the air in Portland, and after the cold, harsh winter claimed a few carts, as it usually does - it's time for the next wave of carts to hit the scene.

Today's lunch was courtesy of "Deutschland Curry" - certainly not the first thing that comes to your mind when you think Deutschland, but, hey...

They proudly brand themselves "Portland's Wurst Food Cart" - offering sausages and fries, and a selection of toppings - curry, fondue, lentils, and a combination of peppers and onions I can't quite remember the name of. (I'll come back and edit this part later)
It's located next to the legendary "Schnitzelwich" cart, Tabor, which - sadly, hasn't been open for a few weeks now... (and I fear what that implies.)


Moving along... the helpful people inside the cart offered me a 'world tour,' which was a small sample of each of their standard configurations of sausages and sauces.

As I walked back to the office with my haul, I couldn't resist dipping a few fries into the sauces and trying them out. Each one of them is great. I couldn't wait to sit down and really dig in.
The sausage is tender and juicy, the fondue is creamy and tasty (and goes well with the dark-brown fries) - the curry had just enough kick, and complimented the sausage quite well. I could easily pick any of their offerings and enjoy it thoroughly, though I will say my favorite, by far, is the curry... Nice work!
I'll be back for that by itself, for sure.

Prices are decent, especially for the haul of food. Expect to pay about $6.50-$8.50 depending on your options.
