Julian Ratay (22) from Krems an der Donau offers regional delicacies in his food truck "Marilla - Genuss am Fluss" in the Wachau region.

Calamari fritti, stuffed laberl, wraps and many other snacks are now available at the "Marilla - Genuss am Fluss" food truck in Arnsdorf in the Wachau. At just 22 years old, Julian Ratay from Krems took over the food truck from the previous owners and turned his passion into a profession. The young entrepreneur has been working in the catering industry for six years. "I simply love cooking. And even more so, of course, when I see that people like it," says the young entrepreneur.

Time out on the Danube
He not only wants to win over locals with his regional products, but also tourists. The food truck is particularly attractive for those touring the Wachau by bike. Julian's food truck is located right next to the Danube cycle path in Arnsdorf. Perfect for a short stopover to enjoy a refreshing spritzer or a good coffee - including a unique view of the Danube and the picturesque village of Spitz.

The "Marilla" food truck has been open since Wednesday. Young chef Julian now welcomes his guests every Wednesday to Sunday - between 10 am and 7 pm.
