The Mathäser in Ruhstorf is well worth a stop: New owner Yordan Grozdev cooks "Bavarian and vegan" cuisine, from venison stew to plant-based options – perfect for any mood while touring. They also serve Passau beers, including those from the Löwenbrauerei – a lovely place to take a short break and enjoy the beer culture of the Rottal region. https://www.instagram.com/mathaeser.gasthaus.ruhstorf
