Hungry stomachs are forced to contemplate cooking their own food while our brains are busy plotting ways to make Hollywood starlets fall in love with our ungainly cousins. Quell an insurgent appetite with today's deal: for $9, you get $20 worth of rotisserie chicken, barbecue ribs, and more at Mr. Chick. This Groupon is valid for dine-in, carryout, and catering.

Although Mr. Chick specializes in spit-roasted chicken, its extensive menu also offers up a variety of sandwiches, ribs, and sides to conquer rumbling stomachs. Dip into starters such as Buffalo-style chicken tenders ($8.95) and fried zucchini ($5.95), or zip straight to the teriyaki chicken rice bowl packed with grilled chicken, hearty rice, and veggies ($7.95). Plates heaped with half of a flavorful roasted chicken ($9.95, $10.95 for all white meat) or tender, cooing baby back ribs ($13.95 for a half rack) are accessorized with a Greek salad, two side dishes, and Italian bread. A winning ensemble of sides (small $1.95, large $3.95) includes French fries, Mediterranean green beans, and roasted potatoes, with beer and wine also on hand to irrigate a poultry-stuffed food hatch. Open six days a week and closed Sundays, Mr. Chick will happily take your order by phone to cater an event, be it a birthday, promotion, or pre-hibernation cheekpouch-filling party.

Orders must include at least one food item.

• Mr. Chicks [sic] serves great food at reasonable prices. Their chicken is tender and moist and seasoned just right. All of the side dishes I have tried are tasty as well. The bread by itself is worth the price of admission. – bill t., Yelp
