http://www.r.tl/about.html

Today’s Groupon: for $49, you get a four-course tasting menu for one at Regional Tasting Lounge in Yaletown (a $98 value).

The menu created by Darryl Crumb, currently competing on Food Network Canada’s Top Chef Canada, unites multiple global flavours and cuisine styles in his gourmand fare. A Groupon-exclusive tasting menu begins with duck pâté’s introduction to the dining room’s green-and-gold interior in the form of foie gras au torchon with roasted hazelnuts and handpicked greens, followed by a second course parade of house-made lobster gnocchi in rosemary cream. Blue-foot chicken in a green curry with egg, cilantro, and lime swaggers onto the hardwood table in a third course, leading up to a finale of lamb confit d’agneau posing in a pool of sherry glaze, green beans, and Israeli couscous. Although the fixed menu may change, all courses, like wife-seeking bachelors, can find fruitful partners with an optional wine pairing from a selection of more than 30 wines served by the glass (available at an additional charge). The resident sommelier tickles palates with international pours and grape-flavoured feathers, as well as local Young & Wyse’s 2008 merlot from Okanagan Valley and Clos du Soleil’s 2008 sauvignon blanc from Similkameen Valley.

With today’s Groupon: for $12, you get a three-course seasonal lunch tasting menu at One Hundred Nights in Opus Hotel (a $25 value).

Fusing contemporary cuisine with psychedelic pop art, One Hundred Nights escorts epicureans on a three-course culinary tour of upscale American fare in a retro setting. Diners can initiate the ambrosial voyage with a baby-spinach leaf salad basking in a bacon vinaigrette or a homemade rosemary gnocchi crowned with house-smoked salmon and oyster-pearl spires. While radiating amid the glow of Technicolor graffiti, afternoon grazers can indulge in their second tongue topper, beckoning the saffron-and-tomato bouillabaisse bathing a cod fillet or enriching their palates with medallions of pork tenderloin and potatoes. One Hundred Nights ingratiates herbivores during the prix-fixe affair with a ricotta-and-herb-stuffed ravioli and tabletop brontosaurus figurines. As natural light bathes the silver walls of the urban eatery’s Alley Room, taste testers seal their edible excursion with a sweet kiss from a ginger-and-lemon panna cotta.

One Hundred Nights memorializes the Studio 54–era with modernized, chic rock décor, Andy Warhol–inspired pop-up installations, and bold splatter-and-spill art from nationally recognized virtuoso Vince Dumoulin. This ’70s-inspired interior, which includes a David Bowie mural and a reinterpreted sci-fi setting, complements the restaurant’s avant-garde fare and an amuse-bouche of Pop Rocks.

(604) 684-2777

With today’s Groupon: for $39, you get a three-course prix fixe meal for two at Section 3 (a $90 value) in Yaletown.

Section 3 crafts cuisine derived from local sources with VQA wines and old-fashioned cocktails accenting the lineup. A three-course fixed menu fills the famished with a starter choice of either carrot and lemongrass purée or arugula with shaved parmesan and a dew of olive oil and lemon juice. Complement the opening act with a shower of applause or an optional BC VQA wine pairing of 2008 Desert Hills chardonnay ($8.50 for 5 oz.) that holds mouthward courses steady.

Diners lacking clairvoyant gifts can hurl celery darts at the menu to choose among main dishes such as the baseball sirloin steak in a mushroom peppercorn sauce or the lemon-butter-sauce-drizzled pan-seared salmon. Alternately, patrons who pursue a meatless path can tread through hunger fogs on the hearty foundations of herbed white cheddar and cauliflower gnocchi, complemented by an optional pairing of the 2008 Desert Hills pinot grigio or 2008 Desert Hills cactus blend (both $8.50 for 5 oz.). In the third course, tongues snuggle up with a duo of warm chocolate brownie and chilled vanilla-bean ice cream, allowing patrons to linger longer in the restaurant’s low-lit interiors to wrap up a night of longing gazes or rounds of competitive napkin-folding.

(604) 642-0200

With today’s Groupon: for $47, you get a Mother of All Facials treatment, including a facial and foot rub, at skoah (a $95.20 value, including HST). This Groupon is valid at any of the store’s four locations: in Yaletown, at the Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby, on West Fourth Avenue in Kitsilano, or on Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver.

The friendly staff at skoah is expertly trained to administer customized skincare “workouts” designed to thoroughly set the skin of each individual on course to achieve its potential through proper use of beauty products and womanly brawn. The clinic’s ‘Mother of All Facials’ treatments pair visages with a personal skincare trainer, who will begin with an assessment of the skin and its individual needs before moving on to a complete facial, eye treatment and foot rub. As the mother, stepmom, mother-in-law, or mother goose relaxes, she’ll receive a deep cleaning with delicate extractions, exfoliation to slough away dead dermal flakes and remnants of corn flakes past, and detoxifying, stimulating mask treatments with anti-aging might, followed by a calming massage. A soothing foot rub erases the miles spent running after children and pet cheetahs. Once the treatment is completed, she’ll emerge from the cozy cave relaxed, radiant, and refreshed for future facial photographs and x-treme sport challenges.

All treatments at the relaxing skincare clinic are administered with skoah’s own line of powerful products, concocted from natural skin-sprucing nectars and high-performance ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, waterfall mist, and organic compounds.
