After properly cooking a lobster, its once-brown exoskeleton turns bright red, letting chefs know that it’s both ready to serve and profoundly embarrassed for showing up without pants. Make a meal of deliciously mortified seafood with today’s Groupon: for $8, you get a meal for two at Skippers Seafood and Chowder House, valid in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho and on Division Street in Spokane (a $15.76 value). The meal includes:
- Two two-piece chicken or fish baskets (an $11.98 value)
- Two soft drinks (a $3.78 value)<p>
Using wrung-from-the-wild seafood, Skipper’s Seafood and Chowder House dunks cod in thick batter and submerges fish ‘n’ chips in hot oil to forge dishes tweaked over the course of 40 years in business. Rainforest-themed décor transports diners to warmer climes as they nosh hearty helpings of french fries alongside two slabs of crispy fish or chicken as heart-warming and crunchy as a deep-fried valentine. Chefs cut seafood by hand to craft ideally sized tenders to fuel chatter between couples, pals, or duos attempting to steal Poseidon’s identity, and the restaurant’s kitchen harnesses locally sourced produce and wild-caught seafood to promote sustainability and pamper dining consciences.
