Au Dela

Most high-school kids identify PBS with children's shows or Masterpiece Theatre; but for Cornell Coulon, chef and director of Cooking Classes at Au Dela, PBS was a second classroom, as he studiously watched Great Chefs before trying his hand at perfecting those techniques in his mother's kitchen. Coulon's diligence led him to become a protégé of Emeril Lagasse and eventually wind up in DC, where he offers private-chef and catering services as well as cooking classes.

As a private chef and caterer, Coulon constructs dishes with sustainable ingredients from small and local producers, using organic meat and produce whenever possible. He shares the skills picked up on his culinary journey with students during in-depth cooking classes, where up to 12 students learn how to construct a delicious meal, usually including two entrees, side dishes, dessert, and a brief, regrettable vaudeville performance. In the creole class, Chef Coulon shares his grandmother's recipes for gumbo and bread pudding, and in the seafood class, he demonstrates methods for cooking fish so that it comes out flaky and firm. Toward the end of class, students can consume the finished meal as they sip wine.

Cornucopia Cruise Line

Established in 1998, Cornucopia Cruise Line's three ships transport guests along the New York City harbor or the inland waterways along the New Jersey and Staten Island shorelines. Each ship is appointed with uplit ceilings, brass railings, hardwood dance floors, and glittering lights. During evening cruises, wait staff serve a sit-down dinner of surf-and-turf entrees as the DJ's tunes coax diners onto the dance floor. Excursions on Saturday and Sunday sate guests with buffet-style lunch or brunch, respectively. The ships range in size from the Cornucopia Majesty's vast 1,200-person capacity to the Cornucopia Destiny's intimate 250-person quarters, where guests should wear business-casual attire, eschewing gym shoes on their feet and flip-flops on their hands.

The Groupon Guide to: Choosing a PIN

Until an ATM can identify its user by odor or how hard he or she hugs it, you will have to log in with a personal identification number. Here are some ways to come up with a memorable four-digit code:

  • Year of birth
  • Year of first kiss
  • Year of last kiss
  • Number of friends you wish you had
  • Number of horses you tell people you have
  • Last four digits of pi
  • Expiration date of milk that's been inside your refrigerator for a few years
  • Number of states in the US if you were president
  • Autoignition temperature of an acoustic guitar
  • Four numbers that, when added together, equal a different number
  • 1234
  • Estimated number of days you'll spend alone in life, rounded to the nearest thousand

Are 50 states a few too many?
