She looks after bookings, special requests and any suggestions you might have. Her partner Josef Steiner is at her side and helps with words and deeds. The senior boss Waltraud Steiner is in charge of catering and ensures good, healthy and balanced meals. The high-quality meat and sausage meat comes from Ferdinand Steiner’s own butchers’.
