Gourmet dinner supports deaf school

A CHARITY dinner will be held at the Cargo Hold at uShaka Marine World on Thursday 2 October from 6.30pm.

Cargo Hold Chef, Warren Frantz and his team will lay on a unique dinner at the restaurant. On 2 October, Kwa Thintwa School for the Deaf matric pupils will have an opportunity to be waiters and waitresses for the evening and will also help prepare the evening’s meal with chef Warren Frantz in the Cargo Hold kitchen.

This charity event aims to raise funds so that the school can purchase further kitchen and cooking equipment for their restaurant,” said Frantz
