Though India and Indiana are roughly the same word, their cuisine offerings are worlds apart. Find out the difference two letters makes with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $25 worth of Indian cuisine and drink at Rumalees, located in Farmington Hills.

Rumalees, named after a thin bread served in the northern part of India, serves up a menu brimming with authentic Indian specialties. Roll out your mouth's red carpet for the traditional paper-thin rumali bread ($3.99) or the spicy potato- and pea-studded vegetable samosa ($3.69), and subsequently pamper palettes with the velvety, graceful touch of the vegan "Mullaguthanny" soup ($3.99), a lemon-infused lentil broth blended to a consistent consistency. Main courses include chicken curry ($11.69), featuring cubes of weepy chicken swinging in a playground of tear-inducing onion and tomato sauce; the lamb vindaloo ($12.69), with slow-cooked lamb teamed up with potatoes and red chili paste to create a powerful squad of satiation; and the shrimp Govanee curry ($14.69), cooking the produce of the sea in a montage of turmeric, onion, tomato, and authentic Indian spices. Herbivorian brethren can exercise cellulose shredders with the tandoori vegetable entree ($12.99) or the tandoori paneer, featuring clay-oven cooked Indian cheese ($12.99). Rumalees also offers a kids' menu, as well as a subcontinent's worth of beverages and sweets.

The highly regarded chefs at Rumalees take special care to ensure the right ingredients come together in hunger-quelling harmony. Watch them hurl the Rumali roti into the air in the open-view kitchen before noshing on the crispy, tasty treat. Rumali roti is typically served with Mughlai recipes, and Rumalees is one of few establishments in Detroit to offer this traditional staple. Call for a reservation and save yourself the excessive cost of a palanquin ride to India.

This Groupon is valid for dine-in only, and may not be used for the lunch buffet, delivery, gift cards, culinary classes, or with any other offers.

Three Yelpers give Rumalees an average of 3.5 stars and 63% of more than 100 Urbanspooners like it.

  • The butter chicken was subtle, perfectly rich, not greasy and very fresh. They actually shredded the chicken off of the bone...no boneless skinless chicken thighs here my friend just well marinated goodness. The curries were all mild, but still flavorful. The service was great, despite there only being one gentleman waiting the tables, he took the time to explain the dishes to our table and even make suggestions. If you want something different, colorful and fragant [sic] check them out. – Charice M., Yelp

International Culinary Institute

For years the late, great, Panna lal Sharma kept mouths returning to Rumalees Fine Indian Cuisine, not only for the fruits of his tandoori oven, but also for his willingness to pass along his culinary knowledge. Though the man has passed on, his legacy continues—his protégé Chef Das gladly carries on his tradition of crafting fine food and sharing trade secrets with an accessible teaching-style. Students of her classes gain a greater understanding of the culinary traditions that infuse the Indian subcontinent, from making paneer masala with freshly-pressed cheeses to comprehending the difference between currying favor and favoring curry.

The Groupon Guide to: Choosing Your Major

With college season quickly bearing down like a charging quarterback waving a pennant, now is the time for young "adults" to select the academic major that will trap them in the career of their dreams. Consult this handy guide to determine which major is guaranteed to disappoint your parents the least:

  • Do you enjoy creating homemade concoctions in the privacy of your own unventilated chemistry shed? Your perfect major is: chemistry, where you'll learn the secrets of making homemade mouthwash by dropping a roll of Pep-O-Mint Life Savers into a bottle of Kahlúa.

  • Do you enjoy standing outside of buildings at night and staring through the windows for any sign of movement? Your perfect major is: architecture, where you'll learn which buildings contain hidden messages from the Freemasons and which buildings merely contain extremely public messages from the Freemasons.

  • Do you enjoy fencing? Your perfect major is: fencing.

  • Do you enjoy late-night diaper-changing sessions, standing in the aisle to videotape school plays, and making your signature Cajun mac 'n' cheese? Your perfect major is: being a good dad.

Which college major will help you see through walls?
