There’s been a “slight change in plans,” a post on the Facebook page of a new South African restaurant headed for Main St. downtown announced earlier this month. The owners of the Springbok had earlier posted renderings of their planned redo of the space at 723 Main St. But the target has been shifted somehow, and they now plan to open 2 doors north, in a space that’s more than double the size and includes 2 patios — at 711 Main St. Unit 1, directly below the Capitol Lofts in the block between Capitol and Rusk. Late last week, a reader spotted the TABC notice pictured at left posted to the door.

What will be their hook? Instead of picking the lobster out of the fish tank, you will get to spear your own wilderbeast?
My bet is that they won’t last a year. As exotic-sounding as the concept is, there really isn’t anything special or unique about the South African cuisine.
Awesome…they better show rugby games!!!
I thought this was Club Phantom
