There's more than one Sofra, and its sister chain Ozer - dotted about all over London. For a pre-theatre treat or a really delicious, light but incredibly varied and generous lunch try the £13 healthy option set-dinner which changes according to the seasons. For your money you'll get eleven taster dishes. For example: a rich and creamy houmous, crunchy fresh fava beans in yogurt, tabouleh, roast aubergine salad, spinach and feta cheese borek, chopped walnut, pine nut and herb salad, baba ganoush (smoky aubergine and tahini dip), tender lamb kofta, spicy chicken skewer, a couple of tasty beef meatballs and several other delicious tidbits. A glass of red or white wine is included. If you're new to turkish and eastern mediterranean cuisine, this is the best way to taste a lot of things without feeling heavy and stuffed afterwards. Olives and fresh bread are brought to the table, the waiters are courteous and all rather good-looking! If you're not into set menus, the duck tagine with plums is simply SCRUMPTIOUS!
Every dish is unique and shows off the simple flavours of their core ingredients despite the different blends of spices and herbs. The ambience is intimate and classy. Plus it's right round the corner from Covent Garden so ideal for a good pre-theatre nosh.
