Translated Caption: New opening of a food cart in Old-Köpenick - Food cart "Essen und Trinken" ("Eat and Drink").
"Imbiss" or "Imbissbude" can be roughly translated as "food cart" although not always mobile. At one of these you can buy "Currywurst" or maybe "Ketwurst" - a hot dog-like product in a special bun. This Imbiss was opened in the former East Germany. Although they had fast food in the DDR, they were not privately owned businesses.
