Dining out with friends can foster healthy relationships that might otherwise be limited to impersonal group texts or overly personal bathtime visits. Get a bite in person with a person with today’s Groupon: for $23, you get a meal of international cuisine for two at Orville’s Place, located at Crystal Ridge Golf Course in Okotoks (a $50 total value). The meal for two includes the following:

• One shared appetizer (up to a $14 value)
• Two entrees (up to an $18 value)<p>

Located inside a gated community, Orville’s Place silences hunger cries with an eclectic menu of international cuisine including Asian, Italian, and steakhouse offerings. Shared appetizers pave the way for feasts, beckoning dining duos to split eats such as garlic dry ribs or chicken samosas that pack Indian flavours into an edible pastry pillow for forks to use during their mid-meal naps. Culinary artisans paint organic pizzas in vegetable and meaty toppings for specialty creations such as the Rueben, which transports the ingredients of the classic sandwich onto a flat, circular form. Peruse assorted toppings to craft custom beef and chicken burgers, or savour the meaty morsels of an 8-ounce rib-eye steak grilled to order and served up with roasted garlic mashed potatoes. Wood crackles from a stone fireplace as it casts its glow across the dining room, and a projector renders sports games and play-by-play analysis of the meal’s every bite.
