The only way of convincing a frightened fish to swim down your gullet is to wrap him in a cozy seaweed blanket that reminds him of home. Soothe your subaqueous snacks with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of Asian fare and drinks at Lips Asian Bistro & Sushi Bar in Wrigleyville.

Lips' menu unrolls a freshly furled spread of Asian-fusion fare, authentic Japanese cuisine, and colorful sushi. The house-special maki, Godzilla, stomps empty stomachs with two shrimp tempura, avocado, cream cheese, masago, green onion, and spicy sauce ($14) and exotic salads such as Tako Sue––fresh octopus, cucumber, seaweed salad, and house ponzu dressing ($6)––keep hunger entwined in their leafy tendrils. Meaty East-meets-West fusion entrees include salmon teriyaki ($16) and chilean sea bass served with blanched spinach and chili-garlic-cream sauce ($19). Sweet teeth will scream for sushi-shaped ice cream and esophaguses will go gaga over a full bar with premium sake, wine, and special cocktails. Diners may also bring their own wine and copy of Rodney Dangerfield's autobiography to the table.

Lips' décor sizzles nearly as loudly as its plates. The dining room has magenta walls and deep, wooded seating. Playful photos of giant mouths allow customers to imagine the near-impossible art of brushing teeth and eating simultaneously.

Reviews

The Groupon Guide to: Hitchhiking

Hitchhiking, lovingly known as the safest form of travel, has become more popular than ever now that cars cost more than college and airplanes are made of poison. Here are some tips for effective hitchhiking:

  • Ingratiate yourself to the passing cars by complimenting them with a thumbs-up.
  • Be prepared to give the driver some dating advice in exchange for a ride, as hitchhiking is based on the Will Smith movie, Hitch.
  • Put the prospective rides at ease by writing, "Do not worry my arms are very weak and could not subdue an adult," on your sign.
  • If you are hitchhiking as part of a comically mismatched duo, only accept rides in the back of a truck full of chickens.
  • Most modern cars come equipped with a "hitch hole" under the floor where hitchhikers can sleep long after the car's owner thinks they've gone.
  • Nothing bad has ever happened to a hitchhiker.

It's considered polite for hitchhikers to repeatedly whisper that they won't hurt anyone in the car.
