The Purple Fig

Chef Sam Bryne and the staff at The Purple Fig acknowledge that their goals might be ambitious for such an intimate bistro, but the challenge of reviving French bistro cuisine with contemporary cooking methods and unusual ingredients is just too exciting for them to pass up. They're true artisans: not only do they butcher and fillet their own meat and fish, they also make their own terrines and other “squeamish things” such as blood pudding and Care Bear cake. The results are toothsome dishes plated with style and levity. Entrees have included dover sole with tomato confit jauntily topped by a pane of crisp prosciutto and other dishes like cylinders of rare lamb crowned with ratatouille and couscous.

The food isn’t the only thing that’s artfully arranged, the restaurant itself alternates between vintage and elegant. Exposed brick walls and dark wooden columns back the marble-topped bar and recall a glamorous speakeasy. White-clothed tables populate a dining room with purple patterned walls and a geometric skylight that allows the moon to slaver over the food below.

The Groupon Guide to: Putting Lava on Stuff

Now that summer is cooling down, the only thing that's staying hot is lava. Here's what happens when you put the hot, wet stuff on other stuff:

Birthday Cake: Instantly liquefies the frosting, allowing it to seep into the cake's porous body and solidify, where, provided the lava hardens before destroying the entire cake, it will make the cake taste even sweeter on its insides

Car Keys: Doesn't melt the key but instead just surrounds it with a rock-like casing, making it much harder to lose and much more fun to throw to people

Small Pile of Stuffed Animals: Leaves no stuffed-animal remnants

Big Pile of Stuffed Animals: Leaves an even bigger version of no stuffed-animal remnants

More Lava: What do you get when you mix lava with more lava? Find out for yourself by buying your own lava from www.ilovehotredliquid.net.

What can't lava do?!
