Our logo isn't just a design. It is a visual tribute to the Bannur lamb, the bold local spices, and the 150-year-old family traditions that define my kitchen.

About About Karnivore Kitchen

The design came together when I connected with an artist who understands my obsession with heritage meat. We wanted a visual that tells the truth: the Bannur ram, the earthy spices, and the 'KK' motif filled with the history of Old Bangalore. It is simple, rooted in the land, and unapologetically meaty, just like every dish that leaves my kitchen.
