"I'm with Moeke”Becomes a household name in Scheveningen. Everyone likes to visit Moeke, and that is finally possible from today, now that the catering industry can open its doors. For a long time, beach bars and all catering establishments along the entire Dutch coastline were closed, and this in a period when the beautiful spring weather was welcomed in order to generate the first turnover.
“We have all put our shoulders to the wheel in recent months to ensure that we are ready to receive our guests again in all companies. But now finally back to normal, hospitality, that's what we are all about. From today even more than usual. We wish all employees and our guests a wonderful day. Enjoy, take care of each other, have fun and make it a successful day together! ”, Says Laurens Meyer in a response to his LinkenIn page.

setbacks pile up for Scheveningen
It was not known for a long time how the boulevard was 'closed', the municipality wanted to end with a 'topper'. When it became known that the world famous Hard Rock Café would come to Scheveningen, an eye-catcher on Noordboulevard Scheveningen was built hard to have everything ready in time.
Horeca entrepreneur Laurens Meijer took on the plan on the brand new Scheveningen Noordboulevard 'the most beautiful branch in Europe' to open. But the Hard Rock Café is not coming to Scheveningen, and the other new crowd puller, Legoland, has not yet opened the doors or there appear to be cracks in the walls and the cellar roof, under the boulevard, also appears to be too weak.
The giraffe at Legoland is now ready and is made of 46.000 pieces of Lego and Duplo. But those concrete blocks around it were never meant to be. There is something very wrong with it. If the blocks were not there, the fire brigade might drop down the boulevard on the way to an incident at a beach tent.
not a second lost season for many beach tent owners?
Last year, real estate owner Hommerson, who had not yet finished building shops on the North side of the boulevard, paid the rent of the beach tent owners (who did not build it), which they are again obliged to pay to the municipality. That way, they earned nothing that season, but it also cost no rent. This year, the beach operators say they are ready for the new 1,5 meter society. The entrepreneurs on the coast have used the past few weeks to adjust and prepare their catering establishments so that they immediately comply with the RIVM guidelines.
