Zum Schneider, Montauk

Bavarian sausage has been a hit on the East End since this popular New York City spot expanded there in 2012. Several options are on the menu including Wurstplatte (three different boiled Bavarian sausages served with sauerkraut and potato salad) and Schweinswürst’l (five grilled Nürnberg sausages). And this place is the real deal. Owner Sylvester Schneider opened the first location in Alphabet City in 2000 as a result of homesickness and a desire to have authentic German/Bavarian food at his disposal.
