If you living in Durban or Pietermaritzburg or maybe you visiting the region of Kwazulu-Natal, l urge you to make the effort over a weekend to go visit some of the most beautiful and impressive culinary, art galleries and home industry places in this region.

He was so helpful and accommodating, from the booking of the party, to the payment from abroad, to the organization on the day itself and even afterwards- offering to post the finished goods. Their prices are very reasonable too! Let’s support local, and put places and people like these on the map! Great...
Read moreZulu Lulu is a fantastic venue with super friendly and helpful staff. The ceramic painting section has been hugely added to. What many don't appreciate is that firing and glazing is an art and not a science and the negative review is unfair and uncalled for considering the efforts management went to in this particular regard . As a customer and someone who has fired and glazed I understand the challenges that seldom arise. Common courtesy and understanding is something that Covid seems to have...
