REVIEW: Salt Coffee Shop Chakas Rock Beach Ballito

On Saturday the Husband Francis and I went to a little cafe in Chaka's Rock on Ocean dr.
I loved the blue/white colour scheme and hand painted signage at Salt. The white wattle pole ceiling was lovely to look at...

 and their Cappuccino and Rooibos Cappuccino's were divine! (Rooibos Cappuccino was so incredible I'd go all the way there from Durban again just to have another one)

We ordered the Tikka Chicken pizza with coriander and spicy peppers - when the pizza arrived 'with a flourish' I was impressed with the presentation and colour, however, the pizza was definitely not 'tikka' it tasted like simple tomato paste, no salt (we were provided with himalayan salt to use) and loads of fresh coriander, the 'spicy' peppers were sweet and not spicy. The pizza was bland but the base was crisp and we were pleasantly full afterwards even though we shared. I would have preferred a 'tikka' chicken to have more... Tikka? More bite. But overall a very nice venue.

The managed/owner was very friendly and had a lovely chat with the Husband after our meal. The location is on a busy 3 way stop, so you sit and watch the world go by, I enjoyed watching people going about their lives.
