A meal with friends soothes the soul, much like a mother's hug or a movie about brave dogs learning to read. Enjoy a feel-good feast with today's Groupon for a Peruvian meal at El Hueco in Redwood City. Choose between the two options:
For $20 you get a meal for two (up to a $40 value). The meal includes:
- Any appetizer or ceviche (up to a $12 value)
- Any two meat, chicken, or vegetarian entrees (up to a $28 value)
For $40, you get a meal for four (up to an $80 value). The meal includes:
- Any two appetizer or ceviches (up to a $24 value)
- Any four meat, chicken, or vegetarian entrees (up to a $56 value)
Helmed by culinary veteran chef Jaime Laos, El Hueco's traditional Peruvian menu models itself after family-owned restaurants hidden in Peru's most ancient neighborhoods. For an oceanic appetizer, ceviche mixto allows octopuses to flaunt their superior arm-wrestling skills against clams, shrimp, mussels, and fish, served with corn, onion, and sweet potatoes. Entrees of aji de gallina mingle shredded chicken breast with walnuts and parmesan cheese beneath a yellow chili sauce, and the carapulcra's potato, pan-fried chicken, and pork takes a decadent turn with the addition of chocolate and porto butter. Seco de carne simmers a cilantro-seasoned stew of beef, vegetables, and corn-beer sauce, devising the most exciting combination of beef and beer since cattle farmers established a no-parties policy.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Office Icebreakers
Icebreakers help new hires get to know more tenured employees, and vice versa, by encouraging everyone to share personal info—such as names, hobbies, and places on their body that bruise easily—in a fun way. Here are some games you can use to make new best work friends:
Two Truths and a Lie: Share three facts about yourself and let the rest of the group tell you which one they had hoped you were lying about.
Never Have I Ever: Each person in the group is given 30 minutes to talk about things they never accomplished because of a lack of self-confidence or a disease that makes joints stiffen into mannequin limbs.
Ball, Ball, Bread Slice: Quickly pass a football, soccer ball, and slice of bread around a circle. If someone gets stuck with all three at once, the game is over.
Uh-oh, Emergency!: One person lies on the floor, pretending to be unconscious, while everyone else tries to guess the "unconscious" person's name. The person who guesses the name correctly has to "wake" the "unconscious" person by administering real CPR.
