Most modern cuisine is a continuation of classic dishes, just as a computer is a slightly modified typewriter and a washing machine is a river in a box. Revel in palatable progress with today's Groupon: for $20, you get a meal for two at The Orange Dog Bar and Grill in Huntington Beach (up to a $51.33 value). The meal for two includes:

• One order of wings (an $8.25 value)
• Two entrees (up to a $16.79 value each)
• Two 16-ounce draft beers (up to a $4.75 value each)

Named after a Canadian non-profit dedicated to rescuing small-breed canines, The Orange Dog Bar and Grill packs patrons' bellies with hearty pub eats six days a week. Dining duos can kick-start their meal by thumb-warring over an order of the popular wings, which come in internationally inspired flavors such as American buffalo, Jamaican jerk, and Brazilian passion fruit guava. Then, tongue dive into a heftier main course, such as three fish tacos brimming with beer-battered filets—accompanied by a side of wasabi aioli—that hail directly from Poseidon’s neighborhood taqueria. Other entrees include the carefully grilled steak, which has the power to shape shift into the rib eye or New York varieties upon customer preference, and classic burgers prepared with beef, turkey, salmon, or veggie patties. During the meal, patrons can celebrate masterfully executed swallows by clinking together glasses of Coors Light, Blue Moon, Budweiser, or New Castle.

The Orange Dog Bar and Grill's walls are vibrantly dressed in orange and peppered with flat-screen TVs that regularly showcase top sporting events. After enjoying a meal at the granite bar or a cozy ground-level table, customers can show off their digital athleticism on the Wii entertainment system.
