Last monday I had a very inspiring evening at Maarten-Jan Meyer zu Schlochtern’s beautiful new Chilipepper Coaching & Cooking kitchen/”office” at the border of downtown Amsterdam.

Maarten-Jan is a coach for groups with a very original concept: “Coaching and Cooking”. During an informal coaching session, for groups as well as individuals, coach Maarten-Jan and clients cook and discuss serious issues.

Last Monday we had a very cosy dinner with a motley crew of 12 people. The conversations, professionally moderated by Maarten-Jan, were very interesting! When I heard of Maarten-Jan’s concept of “Coaching while cooking”, I thought it was brilliant. But now I’ve experienced it myself!

And maybe the best part of it all: Maarten-Jan is a fantastic cook too!

Last monday, I went to Cinemanita @ Nieuwe Anita. Great movie about Hunter S. Thompson.

Here’s Johnny Depp (who was the narrator of the Hunter S. Thompson stories during the movie) doing a great imitation (I know now) of him in one of my favorite movies all time: Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.

Of course there’s also an article with details about the place on Spotted by Locals Amsterdam!
