Many Greeks are intensely proud of their nation's past, celebrating its seminal architecture, art, and ideas with brief odes drizzled in tzatziki sauce across each meal before serving. Chow down on culture with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of authentic Greek fare and two glasses of wine (a $5 value each) at Greek Corner (a $40 total value). This Groupon is valid only at the location in Carle Place.

Greek Corner's expansive menu of authentic Hellenistic cuisine brims with a range of lamb- and feta-spiked savories. Split with a pal a pikilia platter of cheesy tiropita, potato croquettes, and greek meatballs piled high on a field of lettuce ($13.95). Nibble at twin skewers of tender, marinated lamb bolstered with a side of potato and greek salad ($15.95), or order a solo-size greek pizza ($6.95) with spinach and tomato huddling under a blanket of feta, kefalotyri, and mozzarella cheeses like ancient Greek children hiding from the minotaur in the closet. At meal's end, culinary cohorts can munch on sweet baklava ($4.25) or tiramisu ($4.95) while enjoying sips of house wine.
