The restaurant offers dishes priced at $24.00 per kilogram for the hot- and cold-food bars and $27.50 per kilogram for the dessert bar. Menu items include cream-of-broccoli soup, ginger tofu, and flexitarian options such as chicken pesto penne with goat cheese, followed by maple-syrup pies and double-chocolate-chunk cookies. Each diner can sip on one nonalcoholic drink; options include fair-trade coffee, herbal and organic teas, and offerings from the juice bar, such as fresh-squeezed pink-grapefruit juice or maple-syrup lemonade. See the menus.

Commensal

Commensal's chefs whirl all natural and organic ingredients into a series of hot, cold, and dessert items that showcase vegan, ovo, and lacto foods. A variety of accolades has been bestowed upon the restaurant and its selection of succulent dishes such as butternut-squash soup, florentine quiche, or lasagna—all of which are clearly marked with nutritional information. Patrons can load up on hummus, chickpea salads, or avocado in capers vinaigrette before seeking out freshly squeezed juices or fair-trade coffees. Dessert options such as key-lime pies, hazelnut cakes, or tapioca pudding are also priced per kilogram, allowing patrons to fill their purses until they’re overflowing.

The Groupon Guide to: Speed-Reading

Reading is so boring that if you don't do it fast, you're at risk of falling asleep and hitting your head on a book. Diminish your reading time to mere seconds a day with these speed-reading tips:

  • Practice moving your eyes really fast by quickly looking back and forth at a set of twins until they start to look like one person.

  • Most written text is full of extra words that the author put in to sound smart and pay homage to that old hag Mother Grammar. Skip the fluff by only reading words that are men's names, parts of a horse, in a crazy font, or "Las Vegas."

  • Do not ever read anything inside of parentheses. Parentheses are the garbage can of the page where the author puts his least important or most disgusting thoughts.

  • Use the shape of a paragraph to guide you. Big and blocky? No use in reading what's probably just boring backstory. Thin and slim? You've found that sweet, scintillating mistress we call dialogue—read away.

(Do NOT read this.)

  • Good food, plenty of yummy options, I can't even pick a favorite because I always just try for a bunch of different things.
