Born and raised in Birmingham, Callum Lang’s culinary journey began far from the coast, but it was the call of the sea and surf that ultimately led him to Cornwall. With an unwavering passion for creating dishes full of bold, dynamic flavours, Callum’s approach to cooking is centred around time and care—his stocks, for example, take days to perfect, allowing each ingredient to fully develop its essence.
Before settling in Cornwall, Callum refined his skills across Europe, managing kitchens in the French Alps and working in the prestigious St. Moritz. These formative experiences honed both his technical expertise and his appreciation for the art of cooking in diverse, high-pressure environments. But it’s in Cornwall, with its coastal bounty and surf culture, that Callum has truly found his culinary home.
A lover of cooking over fire, Callum is especially excited for the future of The Pickled Plate, with the upcoming move to a new location at The Park in Mawgan Porth. The new restaurant will place a special emphasis on cooking over open flames, an element that has always been close to his heart. Whether it’s wood-fired grills or embers, Callum’s vision is to infuse the flavours of fire and smoke into every dish, elevating the experience for guests.
When he’s not behind the stove, you can find Callum catching waves along the Cornish coastline—a constant source of inspiration and balance in his life and cooking.
