World Vegan Month is in full swing and Carnegie Mellon University’s dining vendors have arrived in style. From comforting classics to bold global flavors, CMU’s dining scene embraces the diversity of vegan cuisine daily across 11 dining concepts.

Diners enjoy dishes like chana masala and veggie curry, which bring the warmth and spice of South Asian cooking to the table. Falafel pitas and samosas offer satisfying bites with Mediterranean and Indian flair, while lo mein and Korean BBQ tofu showcase the savory depth of East Asian-inspired meals. Those craving something familiar are welcome to try an Impossible burger or buffalo cauliflower ciabatta sandwich. Even lighter fare like 12 veggie soup and vegan sushi rolls provide fresh choices that don’t compromise on flavor.

This commitment to vegan dining reflects CMU’s broader values around sustainability, wellness, and inclusivity. By offering a wide range of plant-based meals, the university empowers its community to make choices that align with their personal practices and ethics.
