A raw steak can reduce the swelling of a black eye just as easily as the charcoal markings of a well-cooked steak can draw it back on. Make artful use of cuisine with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of teppanyaki dinner fare at Iron Chef Japanese Steak House in Puyallup.

Showmanship meets scrumptiousness at Iron Chef Japanese Steak House, where chefs juggle cooking utensils and show off their chopping chops while they grill teppanyaki menu selections such as steak, chicken, and seafood. Scallops and lobster tails dock at the hibachi as pincers grasp chopsticks or silverware in anticipation of a seared seafood feast ($38.99). Succulent strips of new york steak ($22.99) sizzle interpretations of Broadway tunes, drawing cheers muffled by mouthfuls of salmon ($23.99) and sukiyaki steak ($18.99). Dinner opens with a prawn appetizer, hot tea, salad, and steamy bowl of soup. Entrees arrive shortly after with vegetables and steamed rice, and the meal concludes with a dessert and a contest to determine who can hold their palm to the grill for the longest.
