$98 for a Four-Course, Eight-Plate Tequila-Tasting Meal for Two ($160 Total Value)

The sweetness of mango salsa cuts through ahi tartare tacos (a $10.50 value) during the first course. This gives way to a second course of fried calamari with aioli infused with the citric bite of meyer lemons, a sweeter, smoother cousin of the standard lemon (a $9 value). Diners then receive two margaritas (a $9 value each) crafted with Gran Centenario plata tequila and agave nectar. Plata tequila is never aged in barrels, which allows its raw desert flavors to shine.

For the third course, servers bring out plates of shrimp with garlic and lime (an $11 value), which are followed by caesar salad with grilled sourdough croutons (a $9.50 value). Two Gran Centenario reposado-tequila margaritas (a $10 value each) help illustrate the difference between barrel-aged and plata tequilas. A Oaxacan-style mole adorns chicken (a $14 value) with a delicate sweetness that prepares palates for the next course: spare ribs braised with Coca-Cola (a $13 value). Two more margaritas clatter onto the table (an $11 value each), this time brimming with añejo tequilas aged even longer than reposados.

A pair of chocolate-and-tequila dessert cocktails (a $9 value each) then washes down fresh donut holes (a $7 value) and fudge brownie bites (an $8 value) to finish off the meal.

Andalu

Owner and head chef Calvin Schneiter lives his dream every day as he fuses traditional Spanish tapas with American accents at Andalu, his first-ever restaurant venture. Schneiter learned the trade from his mother, a gourmet chef and culinary teacher, and diners at his elegant eatery savor eclectic dishes from his mind, such as duck confit dumplings with sweet chili sauce, deep-fried macaroni and cheese, and butternut squash raviolis with sage brown butter. The restaurant has earned accolades from all over the country, and the San Francisco Chronicle’s Michael Bauer praised not only the caliber of the cuisine, but the staff's "relaxed attitude" that creates a comfortable and informal atmosphere during meals and impromptu interrogations.

The Groupon Guide to: Britcoms

Everybody knows that British sitcoms, AKA britcoms, AKA sitishes, are better and more artistic than American sitcoms, AKA USATVcoms—especially these, the world’s best britcoms:

The Hemleys of Northumberland: Even though couthness is held above all in England, this working-class family is not couth—uncouth even! The father is gruff from working in a northern smog factory, and every week he somehow manages to ruin the mother’s dinner party with the posh vicar!

Oh, Really Now!: What do a grimy, working-class department-store manager, a posh vicarwife, and a boffin fresh out of Eton who needs a job have in common? They are also bank robbingtons (British for “robbers”). Tune in to Dave. (They really have a channel called this. Google it.)

The Frasiering Hour: Frasier Crane is a popular radio psychiatrist, dispensing his wit and wisdom to the masses. He lives in Seattle with his retired bobby father, Martin, and his housekeeper, Daphne Moon. With Frasier’s brother, Niles, Eddie the dog, outrageous situations, and plenty of humor in each episode, this a worthy successor to Beers Ahoy (the show on which Cheers is based).

What are some of the greatest britcoms? Find out in today’s Groupon Guide.

  • Amazing food. Get lots of plates to try as much as you can. Mac and cheese sticks, Coca Cola ribs stick out in my mind but every dish was delicious!
