Sicilian season at Fifteen Cornwall

Step into Cornwall’s Fifteen on the beach and you’re surrounded by the rapacious Atlantic which gives this posh beach shack on stilts an instant advantage over the slinkiest restaurants. With vast, panoramic views of the ocean, this surely must be one of the best UK restaurants to work in terms of location?

The House of Holi

A puff of blue explodes in my face. Then a puff of yellow. Holy rainbow coloured smoke! I’m surrounded by a mob, and I can’t see much although I’m still laughing. Fortunately it’s not an angry mob but an excitable crowd, intent on causing harmless devastation by primary colour. The occasion: it’s the Hindu festival of Holi.
