Their treats are perfection and they ship too if you’re not in the area!!

This outdoor “Walking With Lemurs” tour runs until the end of September, and is excellent for children and adults, and nature and animal lovers.

Did you know that we have one of the only Zimbabwean restaurants in the United States here in North Carolina?

I had the pleasure of experiencing an evening of delicious culinary fare at Zwelis Ekhaya

Chef Zweli Williams’ passion for sharing her culture through food definitely showed in every dish at the first of many Zwelis Ekhaya food and wine pairing dinners; which boasted a symphony of flavors, perfectly paired with exquisite South African wines.

The atmosphere was intimate, the vibes were vibing and Chef Zweli shared her expertise during her cooking demonstration for those of us hoping to find out some of her culinary secrets.

I can't wait to return for another unforgettable elevated dining experience!
