Today’s Groupon: for $23, you get two tickets to the “Body Worlds & The Brain” exhibit on display at Science World (up to a $47.04 value). This Groupon covers all taxes but does not include processing fees.

The world-travelling exhibit Body Worlds has captured the wonderment of global audiences, giving viewers an inside-look at the human body. The detailed collection’s population of real human bodies have undergone plastination, a process developed by Dr. Gunther von Hagens that perfectly preserves all organs and tissues of the specimen while allowing doctors to arrange it in any dynamic pose. Each subject is sans skin, exposing muscle structure, and bone formation. Part sculpture, part health lesson, Body Worlds also allows patrons will get up close and personal to smoke-damaged lungs and brain matter affected by neurological disease. Groupon customers can buy up to three Groupons, which equals six tickets, so bring friends or unsuspecting ice-fishing buddies.

Reviews
The Body Worlds exhibit at Science World was featured by the Canoe Network and in the Vancouver Sun, the Vancouver Courier, and the Metro Vancouver.

Today’s Groupon: for $299, you get a one-night stay and three-course classic fondue dinner for two at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler (up to a $600 value). Buyers planning a winter getaway should note that this Groupon expires March 13, 2011.

This luxury resort nestled in the mountains comes equipped with ski-in, ski-out access to Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains, an indoor/outdoor pool, fitness room, steam rooms, sauna, and spa with four whirlpools to massage achy après-ski muscles. After a day spent exploring the mountain or carving out tracks in the hotel, guests with activity-boosted appetites and cheese cravings can head to The Chalet for a magical, melted meal. Start with a salad before moving on to your choice of tongue-encasing cheese fondue, including such options as Asiago & Fontina, Black Truffle, or Sundried Tomato & Cheese, and finish with a sinful chocolate fondue dessert accompanied by dippable fruit and sweets, an easier means to consumption than convincing fruit to dunk itself. The Chalet is closed every Tuesday and Wednesday. The welcoming staff at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler ensures that guests receive top treatment while keeping the environment in mind with numerous green initiatives that reduce the ecological snowshoe print on the earth.

Rimrock Cafe
2117 Whistler Rd., Whistler, British Columbia
http://www.rimrockwhistler.com/

Today’s deal: for $25, you get $50 worth of fine fare and drinks at Rimrock Café in Whistler. This deal is good for all items on the a la carte menu.

The Rimrock Café is powered by the palate-pleasing prowess of chef and owner Rolf Gunther, whose transcontinental training informs a menu rich with fresh seafood and tender game. Embark on epicurean escapades with the chilled prawn cocktail, accented with accompaniments of avocado, tomato salsa and horseradish crème fraiche, or begin with a sautéed wild mushroom salad that wears a diaphanous gown of sesame vinaigrette upon its leafy luxuriance (all first course options are $13). Second course options (all $18) include the buffalo mozzarella, served with heirloom tomatoes, basil and olives, reminding diners why the delicate cheese was hunted nearly to extinction, while the papardelle pasta, emblazoned with a light lobster, goat cheese and cherry tomato sauce, carries a power-to-weight ratio that’s the envy of heavyweight boxers and competitive light bulbs. For the main course ($34), diners can choose the five-ounce filet mignon, or stray from the beaten path with the porcini mushroom encrusted caribou (add $12), chaperoned by a tongue-tingling mélange of truffle butter, spatzle, and porcini cream.

Rimrock’s overflowing trophy case includes a citation from Wine Spectator, and their climate-controlled cellars, home to more than 320 labels, affirm the primacy of their selection. The soft caramel light of two fireplaces bounces across lustrous tables of oak, suffusing the establishment with a mountain lodge glow that’s both the crux of comfort and the essence of elegance, like a onesie stitched from rose petals. Today’s deal allows you to redeem one Groupon for every two people at the table, making it a perfect escape for double dates or barbershop quartets.

Reviews
Frommer’s very highly recommends Rimrock Café and Oyster Bar, and Zagat rated the food extraordinary to perfection. Gayot gave the restaurant a good rating, and 91% of Urbanspooners recommend it.
