we do not follow trends.
we have our own beliefs
we put everything we are
in everything we make

manu factum natural from earth to table dealing with TeXel's heritage beautiful nature
and countryside makes this island truly different from every other place in the world
TeXel does not belong to us we belong to TeXel

it all starts with the ingredients
the smell of salty sea air blows over the island and the lamb and beef on TeXel are shaped by its soil and climate
this simplicity represents authenticity and exclusivity it's just pure nature the lamb and beef from this island speaks for itself

the best food is only archieved by using the best ingredients and vegetables can as always be only as good as
the earth in which it grows and come if possible from TeXel's soil our living larder

lavender, thyme, rosemary, chives, sage, lovage from our own garden and born and grazed
TeXel lamb & TeXel beef comes since 1981 from the artisans

Het Kompas micro Slow Food Wadden Island Restaurant / The Scotch whisky bar + Texel single cask whisky's
is in early 2000's one of the first members of the Slow Food movement Italy in the Netherlands

good - clean - fair
Slow Food springs to life in Italy in March 1986 when the opening of a fast food restaurant near the Spanish Steps in Rome sparks widespread national protest and Carlo Petrini and the other founders of the movement found that it is time to act to escape of "fast food" rediscover the rich varieties and aromas of local cuisines "fast life" has changed our lifestyle and so the Slow Food movement starts on Terra Madre Day 10 December 1989 in Piemonte with the initial aim to defend regional traditions good food gastronomic pleasure and a slow pace of life

slow living is a mindset and a return to genuine values such as craftsmanship, timeless, sustainable, tradition,
authentically, individuality, independence, intentity

the good things in life still exist
the world is coming round to our way of thinking that volume comes at an artisanal cost and discover that slow and micro is the way to go this is our moment in the sun the trend have come to us

a sence of place embrace the quiet gentle and slow exclusivity and savouring the cosy casual
ambience and enjoy drink and dine treat yourself and go for it slow food is the way of life

and who ever knows more, dine and drink better and those who drink and dine slowly can enjoy it longer
with our only one shift an evening time is taste

stray from the herd stand out of the crowd be no nomad dare to think differently from others and
say goodbye to the uncovered tables the mainstream be radically individual this is the time to be slow and escape
away from the horde the mass

we believe in authenticity provenance & traceability
we believe in terroir matters
we believe in slow
we believe in the soul of the artisan
we believe in and belong to TeXel
in everything we stand for
