Teleportation and hopeful heel-clicking are efficient methods of local travel, but tend to malfunction over international waters. Taste long-distance flavors without any holdups with today’s Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of authentic Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine at Jewel of India on Lark.
Filling barking bellies with authentic Indian and Bangladeshi dishes, Jewel of India’s flavor wranglers present guests with a vast menu of tasty fare. Nibblers can cut the ribbon on a feast with a choice of assorted mini meals, including singara pakoras ($2.99) and papadams ($1.99). Historically used for toasting s’mores and destroying old bank statements, the tandoori clay oven is utilized for firing such specialties as the boti kabob that boasts marinated and seasoned leg of lamb and comes in a choice of spice levels ($10.99). Succulent boneless chicken and a rich curry sauce snuggle in a cozy pastry cave to form the edible duo of morag dumpakht ($12.99), and a bevy of savory vegetarian dishes, such as the cheesy paneer tikka masala ($9.99) pleases the palate and satisfies cravings for blown minds. Bold hues of red and gold throughout the eatery, paired with dark wood accents, are highlighted by the sweetness of a gulab jamun dessert of fried milk spheres delicately swathed in honey sauce ($2.99).

The Groupon Guide to: Beating the Heat
Since summer's last scheduled appearance was four years ago, you may have forgotten how to stay comfortably cool. Here are some tips to help combat the blistering heat:
• Pay a visit to the ice-cream truck, or if there isn't one nearby, throw a handful of change at any car playing loud music. Nine times out of 10, you'll be rewarded with an ice-cream sandwich.
• Take a dip in the community pool. It's safer now since the staff removed the tunnel slide where all those kids rightfully acquired their intense claustrophobia last summer.
• Call your local fire department and politely request that they stop doing nothing to come and spray you with their hoses.
• Frozen pizza? Keep it that way. For too long, this icy meal has been ravaged by ovens that disregard its intended state as a frosty, brittle food disk.
• Get out of the heat and take a summer-school class. They're just as challenging as regular classes, except all the answers to science questions are opposite because of Earth’s tilted axis.
