Abstract: A foldable stowable portable steering wheel mounted tray apparatus of inexpensive construction permits the automobile driver to comfortably dine while seated behind the steering wheel. The tray apparatus provides a tray surface on which to dispose food and to prop reading material in an upright position. Adjustments are provided for accommodating the tray to the angular orientation between the steering wheel column and the horizontal, the tilt angle, as differs between various models of automobiles, to maintain the tray level. The tray is pivotally mounted along a longitudinal edge to a back panel that in turn is supported on the steering wheel. Straps extending from the back panel to the tray suspend the opposed end of the tray maintaining same to a level position. Angular adjustment is achieved by changing the length of restraining straps. A brass brad is inserted through slits in the strap to bunch together a portion of the strap's end thereby adjusting the length of the remainder of the strap.
