While the Great Wall of China may win the accolades of history, the Great Backscratcher of Thailand, built to reach any itchy corner across the vast, narrow expanse of the nation, saved more lives than can be counted on a single hand. Feast upon equally ingenious Thai creations with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of Thai cuisine at Thai Cottage. Redeem your foodstuffs at any one of the authentic eatery's eight locations.
Begin your culinary journey with an order of spring rolls or cheese rolls, stuffed with raisin-studded rice paper and deep-fried (both $4.25). Classic dishes done well appease traditionalists, including spicy Tom Yum soup ($4.25–$5.25), pad Thai ($8.95), pad see eiw ($8.95), and five kinds of curry ($8.95–$9.95). Build a balanced meal with the entree and rice dishes including garlic and pepper lover ($8.95) with stir-fried meat tossed in black pepper sauce over cabbage. Diners can also pick from grilled selections ($10.95–$12.95), served with shrimp fried rice and steamed veggies. Cool off a spice-saturated palate with a sweet scoop of coconut ice cream ($3.50) for dessert. Expect friendly service, carefully curated curry, and a cozy ambiance at any of the eight outposts. Like the recipe for Play-Doh, Thai Cottage adheres to simple, timeless standards.
This Groupon is redeemable for dine-in only and is not valid for alcohol.

Groupon Says
We're Thai-ed
"Thai breakers" is the universal term for the exclusive order of people who eat Thai food for breakfast for its high caffeine content. "Tiebreakers," however, are common methods of settling a draw. What are some useful tiebreakers?
Situation: You and incumbent Governor Manchops have received exactly the same number of votes in this year's election.
Break That Tie: Depending on the state, you either both become co-governors who must share a mansion where people stop being polite and start being real or decide the winner by seeing who can bag the most state birds using the state weapon in a 24-hour period.
Situation: Your mom claims to love you and your siblings equally.
Break That Tie: Divide the gross value of all Christmas presents you've received by the total number of missed recitals, plays, and/or important lacrosse games. Highest number wins sole custody of Mom.
Situation: Your soccer team has scored the same number of goals as your opponent and time has run out.
Break That Tie: Wait, nothing happens? The game just ends? Seriously?
