Firemen

According to iafrica:

Fire-fighters have been battling to contain a fire that started this afternoon at the popular Peddlars on the Bend restaurant/bar in Constantia, Cape Town.

One of the owners, Peter Fleck told iafrica.com that the fire started at around 3pm on Thursday afternoon.

“The fire started on the roof and the fire-fighters have been working tirelessly since then,” said Fleck. “The fire is not out yet, but it is under control.”

Luckily there were no casualties and the customers who were present at the time were all evacuated.

According to Fleck, the damage to the restaurant is estimated between R1/2-million but it still needs to be assessed properly.

Fleck went on to say that the restaurant would be closed “for a month or two”, and he urged Peddlars’ customers to bear with them during these trying times. He added that they would try to attend to the situation “as quickly as possible”.

No one has been arrested following the incident at this well-established southern suburbs ‘watering-hole’, and they do not want to speculate over the cause of the fire.

Looks like the famous landmark is still in tact.

Here’s to a quick recovery.
