ROADBOOK takes a road trip to Cornwall 🌊
Few British regions stir the soul quite like Cornwall. Extending into the Atlantic at the UK’s south-western corner, its towering headlands, wind-carved cliffs and sheltered bays have shaped a way of life entwined with the surrounding seas. Surfers, smugglers, fishermen and artists alike have long been drawn to its waters, whose blue and turquoise hues dazzle under sunlight.
Take a trip to this remote county, discovering Cornwall’s best seafood, surfing beaches and things to do. Link in bio.

There was a time between projects when chef @varuntotlani considered starting a cloud kitchen serving sausages. Yet the 31-year-old chef now helms the kitchen at Masque, an upscale, ingredient-first restaurant housed in a bygone former textile mill in Mahalaxmi, South Mumbai. Born and partly raised in Mumbai, he is best known for an experimental approach to traditional Indian food and his use of rare, seasonal produce from across the country.
As part of our latest Modern Makers series, we catch up with four Mumbai chefs paving the way for modern Indian cuisine. Link in bio. 👩🏽🍳
