Study Shows Bilkent Food Prices Competitive
As a more comprehensive response to the complaints from some students about food prices at Bilkent, this table of comparative prices was recently prepared by Cafeterias Management. Cafeterias Manager Ayhan Dağ hopes that the detailed table will clarify students' understanding of prices at various university eateries on and off campus. The reason for including METU Shopping Center is that some of the students claim that the prices at the Shopping Center are much lower than those at Bilkent. Kebap49 is included because it is one of the students' favorite restaurants and provides a good example of typical downtown Ankara prices. The bold figures in the table are the lowest for a specific item among the prices listed.

The figures for Bilkent are the highest on campus (including Tivoli Food Center, Bilintur Catering Center, Cafe Express, and Mozart Cafe). Bilkent's prices are not subject to any increase until the end of the semester.
