Save On Meats

Touting accolades from Vancouver Magazine and the Vancouver Courier, Save On Meats sates appetites with a butcher shop and grocery, all-day diner, and traditional sandwich counter. A weathered fluorescent sign, painted blue and adorned with the shop's signature leaping pig, welcomes patrons as they step into an eatery infused with a retro '50s atmosphere but free from con artists claiming to be Lucille Ball’s dentist. Chefs pile plates with hearty diner fare ranging from all-day breakfast platters and simple sandwiches to ribs, meatloaf, and pot pies. Kitchen scholars helm cooking classes focused on grassroots food preparation and tactical food-fight strategies in butchering and canning. Colourful apparel and wares such as T-shirts and coffee mugs let visitors display their loyalty.

Groupon Says

The Groupon Guide to: Action-Movie Quips

It’s easy to be the star of an action movie—simply remember to drop one of these perfectly timed quips after performing any of their corresponding actions:

  • If you hit someone with a stick:  STICK around … for more violence.

  • If you hit someone with a chair:  How CHAIR-itable of me.

  • If you shoot someone with an experimental ice ray:  Why don’t you CHILL out for a while and watch The Big CHILL on VHS?

  • After a marriage proposal:  Mrs. [new last name] does have a nice RING to it.

  • If you accidentally punch the wrong guy:  Looks like my negligence is … STRIKING.

  • If you set someone on fire:  Welcome to “BEING ON FIRE.”

How can you become as cool as a Hollywood action hero?
