From the mountains to the Netherlands
Skiing in the mountains has always been a big part of Pete's life.
Family ski trips were about making the most of every minute on the slopes. Lunch might be a sandwich in a cable car and a bar of chocolate, but dinner was different: warm, generous and always shared.
That's where the love of raclette and fondue began.
For years, Pete and his brother Si talked about starting a street food business together, but they hadn't found the idea that felt quite right.
Then, on a trip to Montmartre in Paris, Pete discovered a small stall serving raclette baguettes.
One bite brought everything together.
It was the taste of the mountains, served as street food.
And that became The Melting Shack: bringing the Alpine food they grew up loving to the Netherlands.
Today, it's all about melted cheese, good food and bringing people together.

Melted cheese. Mountain memories. Good company.
The food

Warm melted cheese made for the middle of the table — the kind of food that keeps everyone around it a little longer.
