Eat gourmet fare with whomever you want with today’s Groupon to Chiado Restaurant. Choose between the following options:

  • For $30, you get $60 worth of gourmet Portuguese cuisine and drinks.
  • For $79, you get a five-course tasting menu for two (a $200 value).

Chiado Restaurant’s creator Chef Albino Silva crafts progressive Portuguese dishes, employing fresh components such as Azores Islands fish flown in daily. Tasting menu guests settle into an Old World European interior for five courses that span traditional and contemporary Portuguese fare. The five tasting courses include:

  • Two cheese appetizers
  • Two small fish plates or bisque
  • Two scallops or fish plates
  • Two pan roasted skate or Tyler fish entrees
  • Two mixed platter of sweets.

Chef Albino opens the tasting menu with fresh cheese sprinkled, like a store bought fairy, in balsamic reduction, honey, and chutney. Diners decide on their second course from a selection of small plates such as pine nut and mint-covered grouper Carpaccio or shrimp and lobster bisque infused with aromatic cognac. A third course celebrates the union of pan-seared sea scallops and port wine reduction or monkfish and a piri piri glaze without the vuvuzelas typical of traditional weddings. The mealsperience crescendos with either Tyler fish glazed in muscatel and sidekicked by garlic mashed potato and sautéed spinach or pan roasted skate served with a lemon coriander risotto. The end of ingestion arrives as mixed platters brimming with gourmet sweets. Chef Albino pairs each course with fresh-caught wines in sparkling, white, red, and dessert varieties, carefully corralled from Portuguese vineyards.

Chef Albino regales evening patrons with grilled Atlantic salmon filet crusted in herbs and marine salt ($30) or roasted pheasant ($38), a terra firma ambassador, riding in an herb crust atop a garlic mashed potato. Guests can also test piercing techniques on hot and cold tapas ($5–$12) at the Senhor Antonio Tapas and Wine Bar, which passes around small plates of fresh fish, fowl, steak, and seasonal vegetables. Guest dine swaddled in the restaurant’s cream-coloured walls, and warm lighting illuminating rows of oil paintings. Servers and bartenders command a hardwood bar lit by red glass panels and the happiness radiating from each bartender’s gentle heart.

With today’s Groupon: for $37, you get an at-home teeth-whitening kit from Elite Brights online (a $299 value). This Groupon includes tax and shipping.

Elite Brights’ at-home advanced teeth-whitening kit lets users buff molars and blanch incisors without swapping plush recliners for dentist chairs. After a routine tooth brushing, flossing, and fang sharpening, customers apply the kit’s pale-making gel to a plastic whitening tray. They then install the tray securely in the mouth and fit an LED light against the front teeth to activate the gel’s hydrogen peroxide cleaning agent, brightening chompers without harming preexisting dental fixtures, such as permanent harmonicas. The kit comes with enough gel for two to five whitening treatments, allowing clients to spread their dental purification over time.

Soak up nectar knowledge from professional instructors and try first-hand drink stiffening at a two-and-a-half- to three-hour course situated in real bar environs. The bartending class, Get Into the Spirit, teaches how to invigourate libations with luxurious flourishes. Learn to craft custom cocktails using the major spirit categories: vodka, rum, gin, whiskey, tequila, and Casper. Five cocktails will be whipped up behind a real bar with a spotlight on efficient and accurate service. By the end of the workshop, students will have acquired skills to make them as popular at parties as fondue fountains or seaworthy ice swans.

The Buena Barista workshop, meanwhile, paves the way to brighter mornings and bubblier commutes with a workshop that provides alternatives to hired jug bands and earthquake simulations when waking roommates. Join other coffee comrades and uncover the secrets to the perfect espresso shot and mouth-mesmerizing microfoam. By the end of the workshop, students will have perfected lustrous lattes, cappuccinos, macchiatos, americanos, as well as learned recipes for dozens of European coffee delicacies previously available only to those who disguised themselves as Arabica beans and shipped themselves to Europe.

Today’s Groupon to Urban Nirvana. Choose between the following options:

For $44, you get a one-hour Thai massage (a $90.40 value, HST included).
For $85, you get a one-hour Thai massage for couples (a $180.80 value, HST included).

Urban Nirvana’s trained holistic practitioners relax bodies during Thai massages for both individuals and couples using techniques that are believed to date back more than 2,000 years. After filling out an intake form, clients remove their clothes and rocket boots before changing into a provided loose fitting cotton outfit and then relax on floor mats as mellifluous music and soothing sounds from a waterfall float toward ears. Without the use of oils, massage therapists wash feet with a warm cloth, and then dance their palms, forearms, elbows, knees, and feet across bodies in a rhythmic sequence that lulls stressed muscles into a peaceful, meditative state similar to a lingering hug with a cloud. Finally, skilled hands gently stretch limbs, manipulate muscles, and administer acupressure. Bodies can emerge with lower mental stress, increased range of motion, less tension, and reduced pain. After their massage, clients are free to take 15 to 20 minutes to return to a wakeful state, sip soothing tea, or whittle nesting dolls. Additional massage time and Thai Heat Therapy utilizing herbal compresses from Thailand can be added for an additional fee.

The Royal Botanical Gardens’ 900 hectares boast indigenous and exotic plants, walking trails, ecological preserves, and interactive exhibits. A sojourn through floral-laden realms begins at the RBG Centre, where budding botanists peruse indoor and outdoor displays, plan out their day’s visit, and learn which flower is most likely to spit out seltzer water. The rambling, English-garden-inspired arboretum houses a diverse collection of trees and shrubs, and a 6-acre rock garden invites patrons to amble through a network of staircases, linked ponds, bridges, and waterfalls. Four nature sanctuaries blanket 90% of the property in a patchwork of escarpment, forests, fields, force fields, and wetlands that winds its way across the western tip of Lake Ontario, accessible via 27 kilometres of scenic walking trails.

After a day of sniffing flowers and swapping pan-pipe tips with satyrs, refuel at one of Royal Botanical Gardens’ dining spots. The flowery oasis also has a schedule of outdoor jazz concerts, which are enriched by Royal Botanical Gardens’ idyllic backdrop and a string of moving bumblebee solos.
