When in Durban ..... Freedom Cafe

After spending some quiet quality time together as a family in the Karkloof forest, it was time to liven things up a bit. We opted for Durban and added a couple of days of Durbs-by-the sea to our breakaway. Our first stop was for lunch at the very funky and fun Freedom Café, tucked away down a side street in the Greyville area. The café is inside a fire-engine red shipping container, with glass and mirror walls, funky chairs and overall quirky décor. You have to smile at the elongated sausage dog benches and salt & pepper holders, and of course the bright pink flamingos in the flower boxes. Deckchairs and tables outside are sheltered by big trees. My linguini with sweetcorn, leak and bacon was absolutely divine, and my husband’s pulled pork was served in a brioche bun (Can anything be a let-down if served with brioche?). If was a great lunch and fun afternoon.
