The carefully rolled nature of sushi makes it ideal for starting snowballs, which is why it's commonly known as "snowman heart." Eat to the center of snow with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of Japanese cuisine at Yakko Sushi in Burnaby.

Yakko Sushi whips taste buds into a raw-food frenzy with a varied menu of authentic Japanese munchies. Take taste buds on a true Tokyo drift with Yakko's deftly sliced sashimi dishes, such as the tender salmon sashimi ($9) or the sandwich-dodging savoury tuna sashimi ($8). Land lovers can dive chopsticks-first into a platter of buttery vegetable tempura ($6.99) or venture back out to sea with a helping of prawn tempura ($8.99). The meticulous chefs at Yakko Sushi ferry diners through a carnival of crowd-pleasing combination dishes, such as the D combination ($16.99), which introduces fish portions of tuna and salmon to a colourful and artistic arrangement of scallops, hokkigai, and amaebi, festooned with luscious negitoro and hamachi rolls. Meals can be additionally punctuated with decadent deserts such as mango ice cream ($3.99) and with air-horn accolades to the chefs.
