Crazie Munch-Ville, owned by Kwanele and Nondumiso Ntuli, is a small restaurant that has brought a creative menu to the community. The idea of starting a takeaway eatery came about when Kwanele found herself facing unbearable challenges.
As a way to deal with anxiety, she chose to focus on something that would make a difference.
“We used to walk from one house to another knocking doors and selling pies. We have now introduced milkshakes, burgers, wraps and twisters into our menu. Our milkshakes are filled with many goodies and we try to be creative.
“When we saw the response from our customers, we decided to open a place where they will be able to find us easily. We are now able to bring a variety of meals to our township.
The aim was to start a business that would help me stay in contact with people. This business is not only helping us financially, it is also helping me face my fears. I had tried to find a job after I realised that my circumstances do not allow me to further my studies. I could not sit at home and feel sorry for myself,” she said.
