After a busy morning at work, the last thing you want to do is wonder what you’re going to have for lunch. Luckily, our favourite foodie finds at Central Shopping Centre have something for all tastes – from spicy chicken wraps, through to delectable grilled burgers and healthy salads. The best part? You can grab them for under a $15!
Red Beetle Cafe
Known for their easy grab-and-go meals, Red Beetle Cafe has some amazing options for under $15! Eat their house-made sandwiches such as their Turkish Chicken Pesto Roll with mayonnaise, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and avocado, all on a Turkish Roll. For veggie lovers, grab their Veggie Turkish Roll with grilled mixed vegetables, pesto, olives, spinach, and feta. Eat at your desk or head out into the sunshine and lap up those rays.
