"Soif is an absolute delight. It’s one of those great little places where you clock the blackboards, eye up the other guests’ white wine mussels, and instantly know that this is somewhere you’ll be heading back. Back with a date. Back with friends to share the juicy rotisserie chicken. And back to eat enough garlic to keep Smint in business for the next decade. The Clapham room is usually packed full of locals on date night, and three generations making their way through three bottles of beaujolais." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna
