Q4 Ristorante

Kitsilano
2611 W 4th Ave. Vancouver, British Columbia
(604) 734-4444

With today’s Groupon to Q4 Ristorante’s West 4th Avenue location, you can choose between the following options:

  • For $60, you get a three-course tasting-menu dinner for two (a $120 value), valid September–November or January 1–20.
  • For $60, you get a three-course tasting-menu dinner for two (a $120 value), valid during December.

The three-course tasting menu includes:

  • One appetizer per diner:
    • Bresaola al limone (thinly sliced beef with lemon & arugula)
    • Parmigiana aubergine (eggplant layered with basil, tomato & two cheeses)
  • One entree per diner:
    • Veal saltimbocca (veal scalloppini with proscuitto and sage)
    • Pesce spada in salmoriglio (grilled swordfish with lemon, herbs & capers)
    • Risotto con carciofi (artichoke risotto)
  • One dessert per diner:
    • Panna cotta with Frangelico caramel
    • Biscotti trio

Q4 Ristorante continues to rack up accolades for Executive Chef Subraaz Abdullah’s regional Italian dishes, also earning an Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator for its well-crafted wine list. The Postcards From Italy three-course tasting menu treats tandem diners united by a love of food or a three-legged pair of pants to a choice of two appetizers in the form of bresaola al limone, a Lombardy dish of thinly sliced cured beef, or layers of eggplant parmigiana. Main courses such as milk-fed veal saltimbocca and creamy artichoke risotto slay hunger, while a grilled swordfish dish originating in Calabria sports a coat of lemon juice, oregano, and capers. During dessert, panna cotta holds hands with Frangelico caramel and candied hazelnuts; plates of mocha biscotti don Italian favourites such as amaretti cookies, panforte senese, and Dolce & Gabanna sunglasses.

Though not included in today’s deal, dining duos can peruse a wine list comprised of more than 400 labels with an emphasis on Italian varieties. As guests launch food into each other’s mouths from fork-made catapults, wrought-iron chandeliers illuminate Q4’s crimson walls, mahogany tables, and hand-painted floor.

Pearl Teeth Whitening Spa
http://www.teethwhiteningbypearl.com/
1089 W Broadway, Suite 206 Vancouver, British Columbia
(604) 742-0046

With today’s Groupon: for $99, you get an in-office Pearl teeth-whitening treatment and a take-home kit at Pearl Teeth Whitening Spa (a $199 value).

Pearl Teeth Whitening Spa’s registered dental hygienists brighten smiles by administering LED whitening technology. After a brief consultation to discuss tooth sensitivity and best practices for corn-on-the-cob mastication, the treatment commences with the application of a specialized gel to upper and lower teeth. The gel activates the whitening powers of an LED cooling light calibrated to a low laser spectrum. Clients comfortably recline on a spa treatment bed while the process lightens teeth into shades that are two to five times whiter, all with minimal discomfort and none of the complications associated with more powerful lasers.

The staff awards each new smile a parting gift of an organic lip balm and a treatment kit, which can be used to maintain whitening results that last up to six months. While most clients have no sensitivity problems with the LED treatment, Pearl’s team of dental specialists can carry out a desensitizing procedure for an additional fee ($12). Rather than divining answers from their toothbrush dregs, clients can check out Pearl Teeth Whitening Spa’s FAQ page to enhance their experiences.

Today’s Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of pub fare and beverages at The Morrissey Pub.

At The Morrissey Pub, diners pair the menu’s selection of homemade burgers, meat pies and eclectic pub fare with 40 draft and bottled brews. Patrons kick off meals by sharing hand-made cheesy bread sticks, which they dip into a gruyere-and-aged-white-cheddar fondue before using them to construct a vacation home for the salt shaker ($12). Gravy flows down mashed potatoes to form a pool atop the crust of a Guinness-braised beef cottage pie, which beckons forks to excavate its beef cubes and veggies ($15). Chefs sculpt organic meat into the Morrissey burger’s patty, which they then top with scallion sauce ($11); the hippie chick burger’s patty of chickpeas, brown rice, and sesame seeds pleases palates ($11). To complement edibles, patrons can select from the bar menu’s 20 draft beers, including a bubbly Pilsner Urquell ($7.75), or clink symphonies using 20 bottled beers, such as Mickey’s ($5.75).

Enter the pub’s dining room and walk past a suit of armor, dark wooden furniture, and a fireplace before taking a seat below dangling chandeliers and hanging photographs. Patrons can chomp their teeth in time to a rock ‘n’ roll DJ’s beats every Friday and Saturday evening, attend the pub’s occasional rock shows, or text commands to their eyes to turn toward the TV and watch UFC pay-per-view events.

BC Place continues a long tradition of Whitecaps soccer, going back to the North American Soccer League begun in the 1970s. Today the stadium is a modern work of art, boasting a retractable roof and an ultra-modern, FIFA two-star rated Polytan Ligaturf 240 RS+ all-weather turf pitch. Fans all around the stadium are also treated to close-up views via the center-hung, four-sided, high-definition video board, which is the largest in MLS and second biggest in all of North America, letting even moon-based soccer fans easily sneak a peak into all the grass-tethered action.
