Our first theme of the year, the "Purple Mountain", which was built around the unique wild forest hyacinths of the Kemmelberg, is now definitely over. A few hundred people have been able to enjoy this arrangement. Time now for our second theme of the year, namely "Honey-Honey". The first "Honey" means "Beloved", the second "Honey".
There is a lot of talk about the so-called "short chain", but with this bee-honey arrangement, we are playing very close to the ball: we are using our own Mont Kemmel honey in some of our dishes. The honey used comes from the June and September harvests, harvested from our own hives here on the Kemmelberg. So we can rightly speak of an "ultra-short chain" 😉 😉 We have to be able to work with our own hives.
However, we also use a number of other honey types to make the experience broader, more complete. For example, lavender and acacia honey are also used in the package. The "Honey-Honey" menu can be enjoyed in 4 or 5 courses and is available from Thursday 2 June to Sunday 19 July 2022.
In our gastronomic package, not only is honey used, but other elements from bee culture as well: hexagonal shapes that refer to the honeycomb, ceramics in the shape of beehives, yellow/brown colour accents, and so on. The lighting in the public areas of the hotel and the car park also use bee-related shades. Unique!
This initiative is fully in line with our international eco-label "The Green Key". This means that you can pay your restaurant and hotel bill with your eco vouchers. A nice bonus, right?
