LEGENDARY EATERY SAVED FROM FIRE

KAPITAN’S, a favourite restaurant of President Nelson Madela and Oliver Tambo when they were young attourneys was saved from being burnt down on Wednesday. The fire started after fireworks were let off on the in Johanesburg city centre eatery’s wooden balcony but the damage was minimal after firemen put it out. Kapitan’s has become something of a legend in Johannesburg — supermodel Naomi Campbell popped in for a curry when she visited the city last year — as Mandela and Tambo ate there after they opened their law firm opposite the Magistrate’s Court.
