Cozy Kosher Surf Shack: An Observant Oasis in the ‘Bu
Adam Wills
August 17, 2006
Joyce Brooks Bogartz\’s look isn\’t quite what you\’d expect from the owner of a kosher restaurant. Adorned with brown-and-cream dreadlocks, the nearly 50-year-old proprietor of Malibu Beach Grill would at first glance seem to fit in better with customers sporting board shorts than black hats. But this post-punk Gidget is the kind of \’Bu Jew who is as comfortable around Chabadniks as she is with surfers.

It surprised me that a company well-known for its concern for animal well-being and food safety would deem anything kosher treif, or unfit.

Oxnard\’s population is more than 70 percent Latino, which could explain why Tierra Sur, the finest new kosher restaurant on this coast (or almost any other), has decided to open with a decidedly Mediterranean-Spanish flavor, with a large dose of Tuscany thrown in for good measure.
