    Our regular spot is always a great decision. Totally loved the food, the oxtail fell from the bone and the pork ribs were very tender. I really wish Neo who was our waitress was attentive and came to check on up on us, fill up our glasses of water in the beginning and our wine as well. But she did get the hang of it towards the end of our lunch. Courage still has the place on lock with good hospitality together with Skhue. Thank you once again 1947 on Vilakazi.
