Tobias Bätz

Tobias Bätz started his impressive culinary journey at the renowned Restaurant Rottner under the guidance of Stefan Rottner in Nuremberg. But his talent did not go unnoticed: In 2005, he was drawn to sunny Mallorca to the Tristan Restaurant under the direction of Gerhard Schwaiger, which proudly boasted two Michelin stars. There, at the young age of just 21, he quickly moved up to the position of assistant chef.

In 2008, his career path took an exciting turn when he joined Alexander Herrmann at the award-winning restaurant in Wirsberg, which was honored with a Michelin star that same year. Just one year later, in 2009, Bätz was here as executive chef alongside Alexander Herrmann. His outstanding skills earned him membership in the elite Jeunes Restaurateurs circle in 2017. And in 2019, he put the crown on it all: A second Michelin star now shone above his work.
