The Oxford and Cambridge Society of the Netherlands would humbly invite members and guests to our first culinary event of 2026. We will take a journey through the Champagne region of France as we transition into Spring in an informal setting. 

We will get to enjoy some hearty pâté croûte, a French classic pie they felt resonated naturally with the Dutch food culture, much like the beloved sausage broodje, familiar, comforting, and meant to be shared. This will be accompanied with a glass of champagne or soft drink of your choice.

Choice of Pies:

La Classic: Veal and pork marinated for 24 hours with garlic, shallots, white wine, and parsley

Chicken: Chicken, Estragon & 12-month aged Gouda

Vegetarian: Carrots, onions, mushrooms, goat cheese and ras-el-hannout

About Maison Champenoise
:

Maison Champenoise was founded by Lema and Thomas, two childhood friends born and raised in Reims, in the heart of the Champagne region, whose friendship spans more than 15 years 

Driven by a shared passion for food, hospitality, and craftsmanship, their paths first evolved separately. Thomas built his experience as an entrepreneur in the sports and events industry in Paris, while Lema developed over seven years of experience in hospitality, working closely with guests and service.

Maison Champenoise aims to bring a taste of Champagne to Amsterdam through a concept rooted in tradition, yet casual, approachable, and contemporary.
