Who is
Christian Bau?
Modernism is based on classicism.
Born in Baden, Christian Bau discovered his passion for cooking early on, at the age of fourteen. Driven by his unleashed passion, he completed his apprenticeship in Achern as the best apprentice of his year. After gaining valuable experience at the Talmühle in Sasbachwalden and later at the Le Canard restaurant in Offenburg, he finally cooked his way into the famous Schwarzwaldstube in Baiersbronn. Here, as sous-chef, he found the essence of a classic culinary art, the substance of which is still reflected in his craft today. Since April 1998, Christian Bau has been realizing his vision of contemporary top cuisine as head chef and host at Victor's Fine Dining by Christian Bau at Schloss Berg in Perl-Nennig on the Moselle.
