The main road is called Clermont road and was named after Sir Clermont, a farmer in the area who sold his land. It was the only place Tourism Development in Durban where black people were able to buy property and build houses. Since the end of apartheid Clermont has become a sprawling township as people from the rural areas came to seek work opportunities in the nearby suburbs of Westville and New Germany, Pinetown and Durban.

PLACE DINNER: MON - SAT LUNCH: FRI

Avonmore Centre, Ninth Avenue, Morningside Map/Ref. E/2

Tel: 031-312 9135 JOOP’S PLACE Situated a little off the beaten track in Durban’s trendy Morningside, this bistro style steak restaurant is a well known haven for those who love steak, but hate steakhouses.

Established in 1993 by ex Capetonians Joop and Wendy Mol, the ambience is warm and welcoming.

The music is strictly background to encourage conversation, while most of the noise comes from the open plan kitchen where Joop cooks all the meat, creating huge flames as he prepares his special dishes such as Joop’s Special, a centre cut of super grade fillet, stuffed with pineapple and cheddar cheese, cooked to crisp perfection, finished with button mushrooms and flambéed with brandy.

INTABA VIEW is located in the majestic Valley of 1000 Hills. With a panoramic view of this magnificent valley, dining is available on our outdoor deck as well as on our wraparound patio. The interior of our restaurant is classically styled and a large fireplace guarantees warmth on the coldest of days. Our extensive a la carte menu is available every day and our Buffet on a Sunday is a must for family celebrations.

Intaba View – an experience of beauty.
