For centuries, pizza and pasta battled for the title of Italy’s most beloved dish, an honor that was ultimately bestowed upon Sophia Loren. Cast your vote for the Boot’s best culinary creation with today’s Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of pizza, subs, and Italian entrees at Dominic's NY Pizzeria in Cary.
Authentic New York–style pizzas, hearty subs, and Italian entrees adorn the extensive menu at Dominic's NY Pizzeria. Skilled chefs stretch and sauce thin-crust New York pies ($8.99–$12.99), bedecked with a delectable array of toppings ($1.00–$1.90 each), including meatballs, ricotta cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes. Entrees such as chicken parmesan ($12.95) or eggplant rollatini, made from generous slices of eggplant sprinkled with breading, stuffed with ricotta and mozzarella, and baked beneath a drizzle of rich sauce ($11.95), make taste buds swoon. The Dominic's crew rounds out their menu with 10-inch cold and hot subs ($7.65), which deliver meats and cheeses more gracefully than a garlic-bread gondola.

The Groupon Guide to: Choosing Produce
There's no worse feeling than when you buy what you assume is perfectly ripe produce only to discover it's too hard or have it dissolve into a pile of ashes in your grocery bag. Here are some tips for filling your basket with ready-to-eat fruits and vegetables:
- Broccoli: Drag the vegetable florets-side-up across your arm. Each should be firm enough to rid your forearm of unwanted hair.
- Cherry: You'll have to tear through the tasteless, inedible outer layer to test the cherry's high-protein, peanut-like core. Once you expose the cherry nut, swallow it and rate the pain you feel as it gradually moves down your throat. If it's less than a seven, it's too ripe.
- Apple: Smell an apple. Does it smell apple?
- Cantaloupe: Knock on it to determine if it's hollow. If it is, there's a gerbil living inside subsisting on the fruit's ripe core. Hurry up! You'll have to eat quickly to beat the gerbil.
- Pumpkin: This orange, round gourd shouldn't deflate easily, so repeatedly stab it with something sharp, such as a hunting knife or the tools doctors use to open their mail.
