island fever
island in the distance and yet so close
once you've been on TeXel you 'll always come back
eiland in de verte en toch zo dichtbij eenmaal op TeXel geweest komt u altijd terug
Insel in der Ferne und doch so nah einmal auf TeXel wollen Sie immer wider zurück kommen

the wind trough your hair whilst in the background you can hear the waves with screeching seagulls and smell the salty sea air, embrace
TeXel's nature with green farmland, dark forests, rolling dunes, endless beaches and also six little villages, two hamlets and where the air and seas are to be the purest because TeXel is nestled at the edges of two seas, the North Sea and the limitless nature of World Heritage the Wadden Sea

east longitude 4o  45'  11" / north latitude 53" 01' 34"
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
and in the heart of the rural tranquil village of Den Hoorn is a small lavender blue building with at the wall the red lion on a yellow flag that's where it is: Het Kompas !

handcrafted
without compromise
we do not follow trends.
we have our own beliefs
we put everything we are
in everything we make
 
natural from earth to table dealing with TeXel's heritage beautiful nature and countryside makes this island just truly different

it all starts with the ingredients
het begint met de ingredienten / alles beginnt mit den Zutaten

the smell of salty sea air blows over the island and the sheep, cattle and vegetables 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 are slaughtered since 1981 for us by the artisans hans zijm, sander de ridder, lea broekman of slagerij Goenga located in this village

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 this movement found that it is time to act to escape of "fast food" rediscover the rich varieties and aromas of local cuisines

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

Het Kompas !  is in early 2000's one of the first members of the Slow Food movement and community in Italy in the Netherlands

Slow Life is an attitude a mindset and a return to genuine values such as craftsmanship, timeless, authenticity, sustainability, exclusivity, vintage

the good things in life still exist
de goede dingen in het leven bestaan nog steeds / die guten Dinge im Leben gibt es noch

the world is coming round to our way of thinking that it is obvious that more volume comes at an artisanal cost and larger scale means dilution

just different
gewoon anders / einfach anders

away from the crowd be no nomad, dare to think different, say goodbye to the uncovered tables and be a individual, taking control and escape away from the mainstream, from the mass, this is the time to be just different

exclusivity is not something which is, but it's something that you create yourself, and limit volume with increased value means freedom

we believe in authenticity provenance and traceability
we believe in terroir matters
we believe in Slow Food
we believe in the soul of the artisan
we believe in and belong to TeXel
in everything we stand for
TeXel does not belong to us we belong to TeXel
