                                          Dear loyal and long-suffering patron of Casa Labia
                                          
                                          Why long-suffering? Because access to our establishment has not always been easy.  We have, since the opening of the establishment, suffered from a lack of parking. Now the City in their wisdom have extended the troublesome roadworks in Kalk Bay to our neighbourhood, and we are told that, for at least the next 9 months, they will be busy restoring the utility facilities and repairing and widening the road. This means that parking on Main Road and access to Casa Labia is going to deteriorate even further. We apologise in advance for the inconvenience.  The City is planning on extending the parking lot adjoining the bowling green. The good news is, once the road works are complete, there will be an additional 27 parking bays. As and when we get more information, we will keep you informed. In the meanwhile, Casa Labia is open and does not intend closing.
                                          We thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you soon.
                                          Regards
                                          Casa Labia Management
