accessing nested menu items in the scope using json and angularJs

I am quite new to angular and cannot find a solution to access the submenu items in my angular app. I can access the top level menu items but am lost as to how to get the second level items

below is my code so far

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.0-rc.3/angular.min.js"></script>
  <script src="app.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-app="list">  
  <div ng-controller="ListCtrl">
    <ul>
        <li ng-repeat="menu in menus" id="{{artist.id}}">
            <a ng-href="{{menu.content}}">{{menu.description}}</a>
            <ul>
                <li ng-href="{{menu.content}}">{{menu.menu}}</li>
            </ul>
        </li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</html>

javascript

// Code goes here
angular.module('list', []);

function ListCtrl($scope, $http) {
  $http({
    method: 'GET',
    url: 'menu.json'
  }).success(function(data) {
    $scope.menus = data.menus; // response data
    angular.forEach(data.menus, function(menu, index) {

    });
  });
}

json

{
   "menus":[
      {
         "id":"contact",
         "leaf":true,
         "description":"Contact Us",

To access child items, you can have as,

<ul>
      <li ng-repeat="menu in menus" id="{{artist.id}}">
        <a ng-href="{{menu.content}}">{{menu.description}}</a>
        <ul>
          <li ng-repeat="submenu in menu.menu">
            <a ng-href="{{menu.content}}">{{submenu.description}}</a>
        </ul>
      </li>
</ul>

DEMO

var app = angular.module("app", []);

app.controller("ListCtrl", ["$scope",
  function($scope) {

    $scope.menus =  
      [{
        "id": "contact",
        "leaf": true,
        "description": "Contact Us",
        "link": "",
        "content": "contactUs.html",
        "cssClass": "static-content",
        "menu": null
      }, {
        "id": "rules",
        "leaf": false,
        "description": "Sports Betting Rules",
        "link": "",
        "content": "",
        "cssClass": "",
        "menu": [{
          "id": "types",
          "leaf": true,
          "description": "Wager Types",
          "link": "",
          "content": "wagerTypes.html",
          "cssClass": "static-content wager-types",
          "menu": null
        }, {
          "id": "odds",
          "leaf": true,
          "description": "Odds & Lines",
