JuMeLi and the best lemon meringue pie in Durban

Jumeli, an awesome restaurant and coffee shop in Glenwood, Durban.

This is another cool little restaurant for Durbanites! JuMeLi is a lovely little place on the corner of Bulwer and Clark Road in Glenwood. They have a really nice selection of cakes and sweet stuff as well as breakfasts and lunches, with a separate vegetarian section on the menu which was nice to see - I hate having to scour menus to pick out the vegetarian options. The interesting name comes from a combination of the names of the owner's three kids. They also have free wi-fi - awesome!

I'm a big fan of lemon meringue pie, and I can honestly say their's is one of the best I've ever tasted! Just thinking about it and looking at the pics are making me crave more. I definitely have to try their brownies on my next visit - they looked wicked.

Their outside seating area is a really fresh and comfortable space, while the interior is cosy and creatively decorated with an eclectic selection of artwork from various artists which is changed regularly.
