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.
