Today’s Groupon to Sküüzi. Choose between the following options:

  • For $15, you get one Scandinavian drink cozy (a $29.99 value).

The skilled folks in the Wool Craft Union, a fair-trade organization, hand-make Sküüzi’s mitten-esque beverage holders from Merino sheep wool. A functional garment originally designed in the Land of Fire and Ice, the Sküüzi cradles a chilled can of soda, bottle of beer, or jar of fermented shark meat while warmly wrapping the wearer’s drinking appendage in a stylish knit sleeve. Available online only in heather gray or light brown, this clever cup-holder keeps both right and left paws toasty at bonfires, tailgating parties, or camping trips inside walk-in refrigerators.

FIAMMA

1-3570 Strandherd Dr. Ottawa, Ontario
(613) 843-5263

Today’s Groupon to FIAMMA. Choose between two options:

  • For $47, you get dinner for two (up to a $96 value) that includes:
  1. One appetizer (up to a $17 value)
  2. Two entrees (up to a $34 value each)
  3. One dessert (up to an $11 value)
  • For $90, you get a dinner for four (up to a $192 value) that includes:
  1. Two appetizers (up to a $17 value each)
  2. Four entrees (up to a $34 value each)
  3. Two desserts (up to an $11 value each)

At FIAMMA, the flames of a wood-gas burning oven transform homemade dough into the eighteen thin-crust pizza varietals detailed on Chef Chris Muldoon’s menu of inventive Italian fare. Commence collective digestion with congregations of steamed PEI muscles or paper-thin slices of prosciutto served alongside melon wedges dabbled ever so gently with balsamic reduction and parmesan cheese. Sixteen pasta dishes, such as the spinach and ricotta manicotti and fettuccini primavera, keep noodle lovers breathing normally, while steak and seafood such as the herb-crusted spring rack of lamb and the oven-baked scampi offer many moments to make gratuitous “mmm” sounds. Meals end with the option of eight rich desserts, including the traditional homemade tiramisu and the Chocolate Corruption, a mischievous gang of cake, mousse, and fudge all enclosed by a delicious cookie crust.

FIAMMA’s brick walls adorned with dark wood fixtures and wine racks emulate an authentic Italian bistro, while the large, roaring wood stove and hanging lights bathe diners in a warm glow. Guests sit at tables or the bar, but not upon the Vespa on display, famous for being ridden by the Mario Bros.

Spagarage

Settled among the meadows and river of its rural surroundings, Spagarage takes its moniker from its transformation from an automotive garage into the oasis of tranquility it is today. Born out of owner Vincent’s passion for styling, the salon-spa welcomes patrons with a slew of services focused on the development of modern styles, highlighting, and colour diagnostic and repair. Before emigrating to Canada from London, England in the 1970s—otherwise known as polka’s golden age—Vincent honed his hair-sculpting skills at the Vidal Sassoon Academy’s renowned Bond Street salon. Vincent continues to refresh his knowledge with supplemental classes at the Academy’s other outposts in New York, Los Angeles, and Paris. In between running the salon and raising his two young children well above his head to build strength, Vincent is also at work developing his own organic, locally produced shampoo and conditioner.

Local and imported wines, beers, cocktails, and tears of joy complement feasts, and patrons also have the option to bring their own wine Sunday through Wednesday and avoid a corkage fee if sipping from a LCBO bottle. Guests can opt for gluten-free dough or pasta upon request.

The environs exude subtle elegance with walls adorned with Roman sculptures and surrealist paintings. Diners perch at granite tables isolated by gauzy red curtains and divided based on occupants’ preferred James Bond actor. On Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, live jazz enhances the atmosphere while wafts of Zolas’ signature fresh-baked bread emanate from the kitchen.

Today’s Groupon to NewU Body Bar. Choose between the following options:

  • For $67, you get a spa package (a $155 total value) that includes the following:

NewU Body Bar’s skilled staff relaxes muscles atop massage beds and revitalizes digits at a marble-topped nail bar during an approximately two-hour lineup of pampering services. With manicures or pedicures, feet or arm-feet soak in sea salts before aestheticians trim, file, and smooth nails with gentle care. Thorough buffing services expunge calluses while a body polish exfoliates dry skin to render it as soft and radiant as a glowworm in a velvet nightshirt. To wrap up the rejuvenating session, deft digits massage fingers or toes to melt away tension, leaving patrons free to cartwheel on to their next treatment sporting nail shields gilded in vibrant polishes.

Weary visages smile anew as handmade Éminence Organic facial products coat skin in herbal cleansers, toners, and exfoliators imported from Hungary. A custom mask detoxifies skin before muscle mavens knead bodies during a half-hour massage that aims to lure clients into a state of pure relaxation. Prior to beautifying appointments, guests can lounge on white leather couches lining the spa’s stone walls and practice telepathically changing the channel on NewU Body Bar’s flat-screen TVs.
