Bistros are remarkable in that they somehow manage to be both fancy and casual at the same time, much like a necktie with Taz on it. Feel gussied up without too much fuss with this Groupon.

Bistro Michel

Although his menus showcase elevated French cuisine, Bistro Michel's Chef Scott strives to retain the classic neighborhood appeal of traditional French bistros. Whether he's crafting crab-cake benedict, the risotto of the day, or his simple grab-and-go sandwiches, he prepares fresh local ingredients with French techniques. Paired with a wide selection of wines, these simple dishes fill the dining room's white-clothed tables alongside plates of fresh oysters and mussels from the raw bar. One writer from Norcal magazine heralds the friendly staff's willingness to educate guests about each dish on the menu and praises the artisan cheese plate as "out of this world."

Bistro Michel is so dedicated to French culture that it often hosts French language lessons, allowing patrons to finally speak to soup spoons in their native tongue. The restaurant also sometimes moonlights as an art gallery, featuring local artists' sketches and paintings.

The Groupon Guide to: Barbershop Chatter

The barbershop has gained a reputation for being the place to go for listening to all sorts of lively chatter. Here's a sampling of what you might hear your barber say next time you get a haircut:

  • "Take 2 inches off the top? Yep, that's something I can do when these casts come off."

  • "I've been thinking about labeling the scissor jar 'Scissors' and the comb jar 'Not Scissors.' Thoughts?"

  • "Ha! No, this isn't the kind of barbershop that sweeps up the hair clippings."

  • "Someone stole all of our magazines, but you can read this letter I've been meaning to send to my estranged wife."

  • "Welcome to the barbershop, where men are kings and kings are giants and giants are half off before noon."

Why are barbershops called "listen holes"?
