located on TeXel nestled at the edge of the limitless nature of World Heritage the Wadden Sea is TeXel
something of a world apart and an inspiring natural environment
in the shadow of the famous church build in 1425 and its 28 metres high white tower
build in 1450 on the boundary of the "olde lant" of TeXel where dunes, forest, farmland and sea come together
and in the heart of the rural tranquil village of Den Hoorn there is a small lavender blue building
and the yellow flag with the red lion on the wall the unofficial Scottish flag that's where

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, behaviour, orginality, integrity
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 discovers 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 approach
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
