A plantain makes a serviceable boomerang, a convincing concealed gun during bank heists, and—if sprinkled with anemones—a fun companion for a lonely clown fish. Discover some of the tropical fruit's other uses with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of exotic fare and drinks at Papi's Cuban & Caribbean Grill. Your Groupon is valid at all four locations in Lawrenceville, Kennesaw, Stockbridge, and Midtown Atlanta.

Voted Best Cuban in 2010 by Creative Loafing Atlanta, Papi's Cuban & Caribbean Grill skirts the embargo with a menu of sandwiches, wraps, salads, tropical drinks, and fresh-made traditional desserts, such as coconut flan and tres leches cake. As live music snake-charms your slithery hips on Friday and Saturday nights, pair the media noche sandwich—smoked pork, ham, Swiss cheese, dill pickles, mustard, and mayonnaise nestled between two pieces of sweet bread ($5.25)—with a side of crispy tostones ($2.25). Papi's vegetarian platter, part of the authentic restaurant's vegetarian menu, teems with grilled buttery vegetables in mojo sauce served on a soft bed of rice with plantains and black beans ($7.25).
