Deluxe Beach Restaurant
White Rock
15475 Marine Dr. White Rock, British Columbia
http://www.deluxerestaurant.ca/

Today’s Groupon to Deluxe Beach Restaurant in White Rock. Choose between the following options:

For $50, you get a prix-fixe dinner for two (a $100 value) that includes:

  • Two salads
  • Two appetizers
  • Two main courses
  • Two desserts

For $95, you get a prix fixe dinner for four (a $200 value) that includes:

  • Four salads
  • Four appetizers
  • Four main courses
  • Four desserts

Deluxe Beach Restaurant’s prix-fixe menu brims with international options bolstered by fresh, seasonal ingredients. Diners can inaugurate dinner with the roquette, whose candied walnuts add a flavourful complexity to savoury goat cheese, then welcome a troupe of tiger prawns balancing crispy pancetta on their balsamic-glazed heads. Grilled beef tenderloin with phyllo-wrapped mashed potatoes and an optional shiitake-port-peppercorn demi sauce argue compellingly for terrestrial proteins, but patrons may prefer to ransack fabled undersea orchards with the lobster, ricotta, and pear ravioli in champagne-shallot cream sauce. For dessert, delve into the dark chocolate mousse that sports a distinguished wig of whipped cream and strawberry coulis. While learning to play the spoons between courses, diners can take a break to admire the ocean view from the upstairs, or browse surface sand for lost doubloons from the main level’s cocktail lounge and outdoor patio.

TBC Indoor Kart Racing
Richmond
2100 Viceroy Pl. Richmond, British Columbia
http://www.tbcir.ca/

Today’s Groupon to TBC Indoor Kart Racing in Richmond. Choose between the following options:

For $14, you get two races Monday–Thursday, or after 6 p.m. on Sunday (up to a $29 value).
For $18, you get two races on Friday or Saturday (a $37 value).
Both options include one helmet rental (a $2 value).

At TBC Indoor Kart Racing, racers zoom around an 1/5-mile indoor track behind the wheels of ungoverned European race karts. A state-of-the-art timing system and big, fast engines mean a trip around the squiggly track will satisfy the want racers have mistakenly identified as a need for speed in record time. Drivers can hug the track’s 13 turns while seated inside a Sodi GT5 with a 2-inch ground clearance, which helps it achieve speeds up to 75 kilometers per hour. The karts use a clean-air exhaust system, so stressed lungs can breathe easily as they zip around the bend, and a separate game lounge keeps kartophobic friends occupied as companions race around the track. Each race takes approximately eight minutes to finish, and can be used to prove that six failed driving tests were, in fact, flukes.

Though TBC Indoor Kart Racing sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

Today’s Groupon to Solarice Wellness Spas. Choose between the following options:

For $49, you get a one-hour Swedish massage at the Vancouver (a $99 value).

For $97, you get a one-hour Swedish massage with a choice of acupuncture, cupping, or an injection-therapy session at the Vancouver location (a $199 value).

Solarice Wellness Spas’ expert therapists blend Western medical science with techniques forged from traditional Eastern therapies in a range of holistic spa and wellness services. Patients begin their healing journeys by navigating the spa’s cobblestone passages and action-figure display cases to arrive at 1 of 12 private treatment rooms. In the one-hour Swedish massage, masseuse’s hands recontour backs in a series of long and short strokes, digging in to ease sore muscles and encouraging circulation in shy teen blood cells. A thorough consultation then precedes additional treatment options to determine the effectiveness of one of the three other holistic services on the client’s health concerns.

Of the additional holistic therapies offered, client skin submits to the gentle wiles of disposable needles in 30-minute acupuncture sessions as therapists introduce them to specific body points that aim to stimulate flow of chi and of cell-phone signals. Needles set out to open body pathways to correct digestive imbalances and regulate the function of muscles and internal organs to promote natural healing. Therapists may also suction glass or bamboo cups to their patients’ skin in cupping sessions, which aid in drawing out toxins and prepping patients for hugs at octopus conventions. Intended to aid muscular-skeletal aches, injection-therapy sessions infuse patients with natural botanical-based injections containing herbs, homeopathics, and vitamins without the strong accents of most foreign plants.

http://www.corkandfin.ca/

Today’s Groupon: for $85, you get a seafood cooking class and dinner (a $170 value) at Cork & Fin, located in the Alhambra Hotel. Classes start September 18 and run Sundays–Tuesdays. The experience includes:

  • A 30 minute lecture on oyster varieties and fish types and tips on selecting, storing, and cooking them
  • An oyster shucking lesson where students shuck half a dozen oysters each
  • A hands on lesson on how to fillet a whole fish
  • A hands on lesson on how to prepare a fish broth/fume
  • A Provencal-style bouillabaisse that students make and eat together

Cork & Fin’s adroit culinary artists Chef Elliott Hashimoto and Sous Chef Peter Niermann guide fledgling cooks through the fundamentals of assembling a feast of sea-sourced sustenance with informative, interactive classes. Sessions are capped at eight students to ensure hands-on instruction and prevent knife-juggling contest to win instructor attention, kicking off with a 20-minute lecture that covers the numerous varieties of fish and oysters. Nascent meal manifesters then hone their fish butchery skills as they learn to scale, skin, and fillet a whole fish, using the surplus remnants to craft an aromatic fish fume. The artfully filleted fish can be packaged up to be taken home, allowing students to show off their handy work by cooking it up for dinner or taping the boneless masterpieces to the refrigerator. Once students have enhanced their ability to wrangle finned fare, they learn how to profile and scoop up fresh oysters before coaxing shy mollusks out of their shells with shucking lessons. To cap off the class, pupils employ their new chef savvy to whip up a Provençal-style bouillabaisse to chow down on and reward tummies for not heckling the appendix throughout the lesson.
