Born in Pointe-Noire, a coastal city on the Atlantic, Christ grew up surrounded by African flavors and the richness of a tropical environment. As a teenager, he moved to France, where he studied visual arts before returning to his first passion: cooking.

A graduate of the prestigious Ferrandi Paris and trained at one of the world’s most renowned restaurants, Gaggan, he set out to travel the world in search of his own culinary identity.

A true voyager, Christ shapes his cuisine through nomadic experiences and global discoveries. For him, traveling means exploring new terroirs and flavors, enriching his style, and constantly pushing himself to innovate and experiment.

He has lived and cooked in Bangkok, Beirut, Marrakech, and Tokyo.
His culinary signature blends the best of these cultures into a personal, unconventional style — a true culinary experience.

Driven by strong convictions — taste, beauty, and authenticity — Christ prioritizes ingredient varieties, seasonality, thoughtful flavor pairing, spices, and meticulous plating, all influenced by his artistic background.

His cuisine is modern, multicultural, and plant-forward.
During Season 7 of Objectif Top Chef, he stood out with dishes combining French cuisine with African influences.

In 2023, he became the chef of chef Mory Sacko’s Franco-African bistro, where he collaborated for two years.
Today, he travels the world, sharing his vibrant, spice-forward, globally inspired cuisine.
