Kasi Corner

Kasi Corner was founded by hospitality veterans Jakes and Ncedi in the Storms River Township. Born out of resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic, it started with an umbrella, a cast-iron pot, and a passion for local cuisine. Today, supported by the local community and the beKind SA initiative, it has grown into a cherished dining destination where visitors can enjoy warm Tsitsikamma hospitality against the backdrop of the Tsitsikamma Mountains.

The Dining Experience
