If Harry Kane keeps scoring like he did in 2025/26, he might be able to feed an army.

Since his arrival in Bavaria, Stefan Kastner of Der Waldgasthof (The Forest Inn) has sent Kane a Wiener Schnitzel delivered to his home for every goal that he scores.

If you are keeping a tally at home, that is 61 for this season alone.

On Saturday, though, Kastner, who was hosting a viewing party, upped the ante by treating all 300 of his guests to “mini Kane schnitzels” — something that was deemed a major success.

“After it became public in January that I buy Harry a meal for every goal he scores, there was a great deal of interest in our schnitzels. That’s why I wanted to give all fans the opportunity to try one – and the cup final was a great occasion for that,” Kastner told Bild.

This is how it played out:

Around 300 guests accepted this tempting invitation, and each received a small “goal-scorer” schnitzel with potato salad. During normal restaurant hours, the veal Wiener Schnitzel, served with either roast potatoes or potato salad, costs €28.90 – but on Saturday, these little samples were free! The Hofbräu brewery generously provided draft beer.

Each of the more than 200 guests at the public viewing was given a mini schnitzel with potato salad and cranberries.

“It was a really successful evening. I’m especially pleased that Harry scored all three goals. I delivered the three schnitzels he earned to his home on Sunday,“ Kastner said.

In January, Kane talked about the Schnitzel deliveries.

“Schnitzel is my favorite Bavarian dish, even though many say it’s Austrian. That’s a nice story. Of course, I don’t always eat them all myself. But everyone is happy about it, and I enjoy them very much too,” said Kane.

So, how did it all come to be, well, Bild has that part of the story, too:

The schnitzel ritual originated like this: Employees and friends of the Kanes frequently stayed overnight and ate at Kastner’s restaurant. The number nine of the German record champions and their entourage developed a taste for it, and Kastner came up with the idea of rewarding Harry with a schnitzel for every goal.

While Kastner will not be shipping anything to North America for the World Cup, he will keep the tradition going for next season.
