About
Heading to Van Nuys to Springbok Bar & Grill, L.A.'s only South African restaurant, I envisioned a modest, family-owned spot where I might sample a few of those wonderful South African wines and explore what I'd heard was a delicious poly-cultural cuisine with European, Malaysian, East Indian and African elements. A cuisine, it would seem, perfectly suited to L.A. tastes.
At first, my fantasy was completely crushed by the restaurant's sports bar setting; I was convinced I'd be in for a meal of casually prepared pub grub. But most of the menu is a dramatic departure from stereotypical bar snacks.
