FAVOURITE PLACE TO GRAB A MORNING COFFEE? I love a cup of coffee at Doppio Zero, after a good walk on the promenade.
GO-TO PLACE FOR THE BEST VIEW OF UMHLANGA BEACH? It would have to be the top floor of Legends Bar in Umhlanga Rocks! You can see the pier from there.
THE BEST OF UMHLANGA LIVING ACCORDING TO THE FOUNDER OF SUGAR COATED CAKES! We chatted to founder of locallyfamous Sugar Coated Cakes – and local “ginologist” and creator of Durban’s very own gin brand (Salacia Gin) - Sasha Naidoo, on what she enjoys most about Umhlanga-living.
WHEN YOU AREN’T WORKING, WHERE WOULD WE FIND YOU AND WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING THERE? You will find me at home at our extensive gin and whisky bar, entertaining friends and family. There’s always an abundance of food and drinks at our house! When I don’t feel like staying in, my regular spot is Lupa in Durban North – it’s our home away from home.
FAVOURITE FORM OF EXERCISE? Jogging on one of our beautiful beaches right here in KZN – we are spoilt, aren’t we?
BEST SPOT FOR (GIN) COCKTAILS? 14 On Chartwell
