Re: Restaurant/s closed for refurbishment?
Sounds more like the standard operating procedure...bigbird wrote:The closure dates for Skukuza have now been amended. Restaurant and fast food closed 1 March to 26 April. (8weeks). Salati is supposed to be open.
This period includes 1 long weekend (21 March), school holidays (29 Mar - 6 April) and Easter (18 - 21 April).

Selati Restaurant Closed Due to Legal Problems
Don't know how this has escaped attention, but the owner of Skukuza's Selati train Restaurant was forcibly removed from Skukuza a while back, by law enforcement officers, and released outside the gate!
This relates to the new franchise restaurant deal...(Ciao) ....strong-arm tactics employed!
Anyone with more info?

Re: Selati Restaurant Owner gets Dumped, Literally!
I vaguely remember a post on SP forum recently after someone enquired as to what the food and service were like in the Selati Restaurant under the new franchise operation.
Reports were good but one reply stated that they had an interesting chat with the waiter who said that they wouldn't be 'Caio' now and would be going under (another?) new name/management. Could be related to the incident you mention.

I understood that Cattle Baron had won the tender to operate in Skukuza!
Re: Selati Restaurant Owner gets Dumped, Literally!
Cattle Baron has the franchise for the restaurant and fast food. Ciao (Pretoria) has Selati, and was running when we were there from 4 January.
