Academie Duello
http://www.academieduello.com/

412 W Hastings St. Vancouver, British Columbia
(604) 568-9907

12320 No 2. Rd. Richmond, British Columbia

Today’s Groupon to Academie Duello. Choose between the following options:

  • For $29, you get a two-hour Beginner Archery class at the Academie Duello facility in Vancouver (a $60 value).
  • For $74, you get an Introduction to Mounted Combat class at Red Colt Equestrian Farm Co-op in Richmond (a $149 value).

Academie Duello keeps medieval and renaissance combat skills thriving within a 5,000-square-foot facility dedicated to safe swordplay and theatrical-fighting skills. Two-hour Beginner Archery classes reveal the old world’s secrets of recurve-bow mastery with ample doses of archery vocabulary and history. Swashbuckling instructors acquaint junior archers with bow types and historic and modern archery kits before facilitating hands-on practice. After a primer, students sling arrows at targets to practice learned skills such as proper stance, the Y grip, and the three-finger draw-and-release used for hundreds of years by bowmen to accomplish reliable bull’s-eyes and to punish apples loitering above others’ heads.

The Introduction to Mounted Combat class draws inspiration from the picturesque, horse-trodden surroundings of Red Colt Equestrian Farm. During five hours of hands-on instruction, chivalrous instructors explain essential sword- and spear-work, protecting one’s horse, and tactics of throwing and “counterthrowing” advancing opponents, a move first appropriated from renaissance roller derbies. Small classes of up to 12 students are introduced to sword skills on the ground before learning them from falsemount, while horse handling and riding fundamentals are also rehearsed. Intro class can serve as a primer for the Cavaliere program, which includes actual horseback combat and intramural human-shetland-pony little-league outings.

According to the Steal the Deal Official Dictionary, the definition of the word ‘pub’ is as follows:

An establishment specializing in ‘rockin’ tunes’, ‘cold brews’, ‘fab food’, and ‘good times’.

Unfortunately, many establishments purporting to be pubs don’t fit the bill. Limp fries and warm beer don’t make for ‘good times’ at all. Luckily, there is one pub out there that fits the definition to the letter. Don’t be fooled by the imitators: the Sandpiper Pub is the real deal!

The Sandpiper Pub has been pouring pints and serving up the greatest grub in White Rock for 30 years. Over the course of the last three decades, they’ve earned themselves a reputation as ‘the place to be’ on the beach, and with their great waterfront view, high energy entertainment, and great food value, they certainly deserve it. The Sandpiper serves only the finest quality beers, with 15 draft beers and one draft cider on tap, as well as an extensive selection of coolers, wine, and spirits. In addition to their awesome drink menu, the Sandpiper Pub also boasts a full kitchen serving a full restaurant menu, with all of your favourite pub grub and even a few surprises (Vietnamese spring rolls, anyone?).

Koi Tapas Bar
http://www.koitapasbar.com
630 Kingsway Vancouver, British Columbia

Koi Japanese Tapas Bar is one of the best places to surprise your friends. Their dishes aren’t just reasonably priced and beyond standards; they also combine authentic Asian culinary techniques to create innovative dishes that will amaze your senses. Take their Beef Tartar as an example. Japanese raw beef is often served in slices, with a ponzu dipping sauce; Korean raw beef is rather served in small, chunky cubes that better preserve the texture of high quality beef. Koi Japanese Tapas Bar combines the merits of both Japanese and Korean versions of this raw beef dish – quality beef sashimi cubes mixed in with tiny apple sticks, quail egg, ponzu sauce made from their secret recipe. Making it a must try at Koi Japanese Tapas Bar.

Fusion sushi rolls often requires a crunchy edge to be outstanding. That’s why the prawn tempura and deep-fried onions are making the Koi Extreme Roll so special. Topped with a thin layer of grilled eel (unagi) and tasty tobiko roes, the Koi Extreme Roll provides the best explanation to how rolls are made special at Koi Japanese Tapas Bar.

Limit 1 per person, may buy 2 additional as gifts. Limit 4 per table. Reservation required; weekend reservation required 48hr in advance. Subject to availability. Dine-in only.

Raincity Grill
http://www.raincitygrill.com/
1193 Denman St. Vancouver, British Columbia
(604) 685-7337

Today’s Groupon: for $125, you get a dining experience for two at Raincity Grill (a $250 total value). The experience includes the following:

  • A 10-course tasting menu for two (a $200 value). This is valid during lunch and dinner hours Monday–Friday.
  • A $50 gift certificate, valid for redemption beginning December 26. Entrees range from $19 to $36.

Nestled along the scenic False Creek waterfront, Raincity Grill dazzles palates with award-winning service and upscale Pacific Northwest cuisine. Executive chef Robert Clark leads the restaurant’s team of culinary wizards in transforming locally sourced ingredients into a 10-course tasting menu, which kicks off as a spoonful of seafood arancini opens for a demitasse of squash soup, melding toasted sunflower seeds and crème fraîche. Servers keep the food train chugging with North Arm Farm beetroot salad and Vancouver Island manila clams, followed by a mushroom risotto that fuels gustatory second winds with a motivational speech delivered by the parmesan. Confit of pork belly takes the arduous trek from plate to mouth with a steadfast sidekick of puréed quince, and Peace River lamb cheek flies into mouths wearing a cape of honey and horseradish.

Upon arriving at the three-course finale with all limbs intact, tandems flood mouth-caves with dulcet waves from an apple-and-pear sorbet, pumpkin pot de crème, and house-made hazelnut macaroons. While taste buds revel in the flavours, eyes can drink in panoramic views of the water and urban Sasquatches—vistas afforded by the multilevel dining room’s floor-to-ceiling windows.
