History

The restaurant was founded by Edi Rosenberger in 1962. Victor Stefenelli, a member of the restaurant's management board, claims that Rosenberger invented the bratwurst in the city in 1963. [1] In 2010, the building the restaurant was housed in was rebuilt, temporarily relocating Sternen Grill to Sechseläutenplatz until 2013. [2] [3] [4] It also opened another location at Glattzentrum near Zurich in 2010. [5] The new building had the same layout as the previous, but had more space for eating and was more modern. [6]

The main food sold by the restaurant is sausage. It is especially known for its St. Galler Bratwurst. Other sausages served include cervelat, pork bratwurst, salsiccia, and currywurst. Each is offered with a bread roll called bürli  [ fr ] to make a sausage sandwich, which can include mustard. Additional food sold includes cordon bleu, fried zander, wiener schnitzel, veal liver, meatloaf, Leberkäse, Gehacktes mit Hörnli, Schweizer chicken, Älplermagronen, Spätzle, and mashed potatoes. Various salads are also served. [7] [8] [9] For a short period of time in 2023, the restaurant worked with Hiltl Restaurant, also in Zurich, to sell vegetarian sausages. [10]

The restaurant offers its food for dine-in or takeout, with another takeout location available at Zurich Airport. [7]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bratwurst</span> Type of sausage

Bratwurst is a type of German sausage made from pork or, less commonly, beef or veal. The name is derived from the Old High German Brätwurst, from brät-, finely chopped meat, and Wurst, sausage, although in modern German it is often associated with the verb braten, to pan fry or roast. Beef and veal are usually incorporated amongst a blend often including pork. Beef or veal is usual in halal and kosher Bratwurst sausages, which never include pork for religious reasons.
