Retteketet to Pompet Chalet in Amsterdam North
After all that rain we deserve some sunshine. Proverbially, no literal sunshine in Amsterdam, but good news: Restaurant Pompet, one of our favorite summer addresses in Amsterdam, comes with a winter edition. Hell yeah. From Saturday 19 October you can go to this winter paradise with your besties, babies or boyfriend Pompet Chalet. This chalet (or rather chalet) is all about winter fun, still in the Noordpark, despite this metamorphosis. Tschüss jeu de boules and fries, boeuf bourguignon and a good tag of mulled wine, cheese fondue and endless winter games.
Let's go back to that first one Restaurant Pompet the summer of 2018 when we discovered the kiosk with the French battle in the Noorderpark as a bit of luck, and to the summer of 2019 when we were a child at home. Anyway: Pompet has proven to be able to send everyone home with a smile. And with a full stomach, man, we can enjoy delicious food from the French menu. All the more fun that Pompet is adding a winter edition to it!
And a winter sports chalet naturally includes an adapted winter menu. And so it happened. It Pompet Chalet menu will range from charcuterie, cheese fondue, sauerkraut, schnitzel, kaiserschmarrn, apple strudel and more. Just right, but we didn't expect anything different. Thirst? There is – of course – mulled wine, mulled cider and chocolate with rum.
In short: why take that expensive ski holiday when you can create an equally nice winter atmosphere close to home?! We do know. Every aspect has been thought of at Pompet Chalet: there are tons of Christmas decorations, checkered tablecloths, deer antlers and (fake) snow. Get that 'wrong' Christmas sweater out of the closet.
And: when you say winter, you say games! Pompet Chalet knows what to do with that. Thursday evenings are regularly dedicated to games night. From nail-driving competitions to the already famous winter bingo. When the Netherlands turns into a white ball, fun activities are also organized outside. Think of tobogganing and cross-country skiing competitions. Now fingers crossed for lots of snow!
On Saturday October 19, Prompet Chalet will kick off with a Grand Opening. Be there, because you get a taste of the new winter menu. The rest of the winter the chalet is open on Thursdays and Fridays from 0:16 PM and on weekends you are welcome at 00:10 AM.
