Making a sandwich requires only two slices of bread, filling, and an expensive machine that holds the slices of bread steady while the filling is shot in between them with some sort of air-powered hose. Go somewhere that has that apparatus with this Groupon.

Gilpin's Steamed Sandwiches

Gilpin's lets their diners do the work, but only when it comes to thinking up and naming each of the shop's steamed sandwiches. After that, the kitchen staff gets to work creating the menu's 70+ sandwiches, burgers, pizzas, and hot dogs amid a casual atmosphere. It's so casual, in fact, that it's playful: the restaurant is outfitted with old school Nintendo, Atari, and PS2 systems. And though one isn't supposed to play with one's food, the chefs playfully fold their buttery breakfast croissants over piles of cooked eggs, turkey bacon, and pepper jack cheese.

During the afternoon and evening hours, the staff builds sandwiches on bialy bagels, pretzel buns, ciabatta bread, and gluten-free bread. They construct grilled cheeses from dill havarti and Doritos, pair veggies with hummus, and top piles of meats—from salami and bacon to roast beef—with hot sauce and garlic cream cheese. But sandwiches aren't the only food steamed by the team at Gilpins. To leave exteriors soft and the cheese perfectly melted, they also steam cheeseburgers, pizzas, and beef hot dogs. Gilpin's even incorporates food and beverages from many local suppliers, including coffee from Coffee Break Roasting Company—which, despite its name, does not send out comedians to make fun of employees during office hours.

The Groupon Guide to: Dressing Up Dogs to Make Them Even Cuter

When sweater companies began making sweaters specifically for dogs, the world got a whole lot cuter. Here are some other things you can dress your dog in so that the world we live in remains on top in terms of being cute:

  • Doggy jeans
  • Regular jeans
  • Pieces of jeans attached to dog in random places with masking tape
  • Four coffee cups, one for each paw
  • Shawl that smells kind of like peas probably because it has dried pea soup on it
  • Shoebox with no top so dog can just sit in it
  • Upside-down bread-bowl hat
  • Tiny cane
  • Someone’s hospital wristband
  • Necklace of chicken bones
  • A smaller dog who can remain still for long periods of time so it can form a scarf around a bigger dog's neck
  • Just a man's belt
  • If you've read up until now, you've probably figured out the point of this piece—dogs will look cute no matter what they're wearing as long it's one of the items listed above.

How many dogs can you fit in a coffee cup?
