&about<br />
Don’t tear your hair out just yet as the school holidays begin.<br />
We have a number of new and revamped dining spots for the kids and<br />
grown ups to keep you busy over the festive season<br />
THE LOOSE MONGOOSE<br />
Everyone’s favourite Sunday afternoon spot<br />
is under new ownership and is undergoing a<br />
facelift too. The familiar bar area is still there<br />
and so are the expansive gardens filled with<br />
jumping castles, skateboard ramps, a sand<br />
pit, jungle gyms and trampolines. The menu<br />
is currently the same so you can still indulge<br />
in the popular pizza, eisbein, Portuguese steak<br />
and chicken a la Fernando. There is also a kid’s<br />
menu. Wine is served by the carafe. Sit on the<br />
deck or in the gardens, this rustic country spot<br />
is a great space for long lazy lunches. And the<br />
Loose has the friendliest staff in the Lowveld.<br />
Future plans include a play area for rainy days.<br />
INFO Open Tuesday to Sunday from 11am<br />
– 9pm. Weekend booking essential. Cnr<br />
