Speaking on the occasion, celebrity chef and founder Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi said, “Karigari has always been about celebrating people who create something extraordinary through their skill and passion. Every dish, every design element, and every experience reflects the spirit of a true craftsman. We are delighted to bring this philosophy to Meerut and create a destination the city can proudly call its own.” Yogesh Sharma, Founder and CEO of Karigari, said, “Meerut has a rich cultural heritage. With Karigari, our vision is not just to serve exceptional food but to create an experience that honours the artisans and creators who inspire us every day.”
