A St Aubin restaurant serving South African, Jamaican and Sri Lankan cuisine is set to close at the end of this year.

The owners of Lazin Lizard posted on social media thanking customers, staff and suppliers for their support – and suggested they might have their eyes on another venture soon.

In the post, Magda and Garth said: “With heavy hearts, we’ve decided that Lazin Lizard will close its doors this December.

“For the last 11 years, this little spot down St Aubin’s has been so much more than a restaurant, it’s been the backdrop to so many stories and celebrations.

“We’ve shared laughter over plates of food, toasted special moments, and welcomed both familiar faces and new ones through our doors.”

The post attracted almost 1000 reactions and over 150 comments.

It continued: “We’re endlessly grateful to our amazing customers, our incredible team past and present, and our brilliant suppliers who’ve kept us going.

“You’ve all been part of our journey and we can’t thank you enough.

“We’ll miss it dearly, but we look forward to welcoming you all through our doors until then.

“This isn’t the last you’ll hear from us… so keep your eyes peeled.”
