A number of restaurants at the Bela Bela Waterfront in Limpopo have been completely destroyed by a raging fire, said one of the owners on Sunday.

"It happened around about 23:00 on Friday night and all we know is that the fire started at the back of the restaurant," Marize Briel, the owner of the Rodeo’s Restaurant and Saloon – which is where the fire originated - told News24.

She said that around the time the fire first broke out, one of her friends was driving past and noticed the fire. He stopped and attempted to put it out.

However "when he took out the pipe, there was no water", said Briel.

She said the water cuts were a municipal issue.

She also said that previously, at the Waterfront there had been another fire a few months ago, and a similar problem had occurred with the water.

The Bela Bela municipality could not be immediately reached for comment.

Anyone having a thatch roof needs to see a shrink, and expecially a business under thatch let alone a kitchen.

I heard the previous fire was caused by electrical fault? No?

The most common "electrical fault" in restaurants is not turning the power off to things like fryers in kitchens. So yeah could be stated as such.
