Our Story

The Wurst Wagen is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Gerard and Erin Lin who share a love for authentic German food.

They chose the name The Wurst Wagen because it reminds them of the wurst kiosks that they have visited in their travels around Germany. This inspired them to open a business that would draw on some of their favorite German food and the many discoveries that they shared in their travels.

In 2012, The Wurst Wagen was born.

Gerard was raised in Bavaria, Germany, in the small village of Siegsdorf. As a child he had many favorite German dishes, but Wuerste (sausages) were what he loved the most. He has many years in the food and restaurant industry and is energized to bring this love and experience to The Wurst Wagen. Gerard has a passion for traditional German recipes such as Curry Wurst, Wiener Wurst, and Nuernberger Wurst, and is excited to bring these and many others to you.

Gerard met his wife, Erin, in Columbia, South Carolina. It only took one trip to Germany for Erin to fall in love with the German food and the wurst kiosks. Erin has a business background with many years in finance and retail. It is this experience that keeps the wheels of the Wagen rolling.
