A taste of home, served with heart
Independent on Saturday
|May 31, 2025
IF THERE'S one meal that stirs memories and brings people together, it’s the beloved Sunday roast. And at FireLake Grill House & Cocktail Bar, nestled inside the Radisson Blu Hotel Durban Umhlanga, this timeless tradition is being reimagined — with soul, style, and a sprinkle of culinary genius.
Every last Sunday of the month, FireLake becomes the centre of comfort food and fine dining as executive chef Sihle Skwambane presents a gourmet version of the classic roast -a celebration close to his heart and rooted in his lifelong passion for food.
“L believe in taking traditional dishes that are hearty and full of flavour and serving them in ways that surprise and delight,” says Chef Sihle. “The Sunday Roast at FireLake is a reflection of my journey — where the love for homestyle cooking meets contemporary creativity.”
