Thanking you Narina Exelby and High Life for this fabulous piece showcasing our beautiful Hilton together with our restaurant situated on the school property: Jackie Cameron Culinary School Outlet.

The rolling green hills and misty forests of Hilton belie its artistic, cultural heart.

Just up the hill from Sleepy Hollow (aka Pietermaritzburg) there is a village that, some joke, is even sleepier. Stretching lazily across an escarpment and often shrouded in mist, Hilton is – quite unexpectedly – packed with places to go, things to do. We tapped into some local knowledge to get the lowdown…

Celebrated chef Jackie Cameron has opened a relaxed daytime eatery on the same property as her eponymous food and wine school. As well as selling tantalizing pantry items and schoolmade frozen meals, The School Outlet elevates brunch to a whole new level by offering a three-course menu that celebrates heritage KwaZulu-Natal cuisine made from seasonal, local ingredients.
