With the addition of a bottle of grapefruit juice, the total cost of the meal below was only $4.00! Much more nutritious and healthy than other options in the area. Very affordable for Vancouver Downtown Eastside residents as Carnegie provides meals that are well-balanced for any diet! 🙂
The Salmon Dinner at Carnegie was well liked judging by others enjoying their dinners in the Cafeteria. The salmon was cooked to perfection, the yukon gold potatoes were just right and the addition of dill to the coleslaw was a very nice touch 🙂
Carnegie Centre Cafeteria is open from 9 am – 8pm
Breakfast and Lunch is $1.75
Dinner is $3.00
