Getting There
Victor's Fine Dining sits metres from the German-Luxembourg border in Perl-Nennig.[1] For events at LuxExpo The Box (Kirchberg) or central Luxembourg City, take the A13/E25 motorway; no tolls, ~26 km, ~24 min.[3] Belval (Terres Rouges, for BSides and Open Source Conference LU) adds ~6 km south via the A13 and N31; ~32 km, ~30 min. Public transit (regional bus from Nennig) is possible but adds roughly one hour each way; a hire car or taxi makes the evening reservation at Victor's practical.
