Today’s Groupon for The Cookware Centre located downtown on Bank Street. Choose between two options:

  • For $20, you get $40 worth of cookware and more in-store.

The Cookware Centre has kept Ottawa’s kitchen armouries stocked with high-quality kitchen necessities, specialty items, gadgets, bar ware, and more since 1959. Gastronomy hardware such as the open roasting pan from Catering Line ($28.99) or a trio of spring-form pans is made from high-grade steel for cookware that is both fashionable and durable enough to whip up three courses while eluding police in a high-speed motor-home chase ($28.99). Accessories such as the stainless steel Cuisinox MOR12 mortar and pestle crush new dimensions of flavours from herbs and help hands in prep work ($29.99). Home bars instantly upgrade with a handy multilevel measuring jigger ($6.99), as do mornings when perked up with a turkish coffeepot($15.99).

Buyers opting for the J.A. Henckels six-piece knife-block set get a 4-inch paring knife, 6-inch utility knife, 8-inch chef’s knife, 8-inch bread knife, 9-inch sharpening steel, and a bonus 8-inch carving knife, all snugly sheathed in a hardwood block to complement any kitchen or home soap-whittling enterprise.

Castlegarth

90 Burnstown Rd. White Lake, Ontario

Enjoy a fresh, earthbound meal with today’s Groupon: for $30, you get $60 worth of upscale, locally sourced fare at Castlegarth in White Lake.

Voted one of the 10 best restaurants in Ottawa by Ottawa Magazine, this rural eatery in the heart of Ottawa Valley grows, forages, prepares, and presents fare straight from organic Castlegarth Farm Gardens and other local producers. The menu reflects the season’s finest bounty, and everything in the restaurant is homemade, from the bread to the ice cream to the elf-crocheted tablecloths. Though vittles vary daily, past appetizers have included a homemade charcuterie plate and fresh Prince Edward Island oysters ($6–$14). Former main courses, such as roast chicken breast with summer-vegetable ratatouille and roasted potatoes, and the Castlegarth grilled beef flank steak with sautéed artichokes and porcini mushrooms ($20–$28), have been served alongside desserts that included a dark-chocolate tart with peanut-butter mousse and peaches ($6–$14). Diners can discuss alternate endings to their Winston Churchill fan fiction while perusing the vast wine menu, which features both Canadian and international wines ($25–$150 a bottle).

Because most of Castlegarth’s producers live nearby, a sojourn to Castlegarth ensures fare as fresh and pure as a newborn snowflake. Diners can also keep consciences as satisfied as bellies by doing their part to keep the local economy thriving.

Dr. David R. Jordan

301 O’Connor St. Ottawa, Ontario

With today’s Groupon: for $99, you get a diamond microdermabrasion and a Vivierskin vitamin C facial (a $235 total value) at Dr. David R. Jordan on O’Connor Street.

Dr. David R. Jordan’s office brightens eyes, lids, and epidermises with expert oculoplastic and cosmetic facial treatments. The diamond microdermabrasion (a $145 value) and Vivierskin vitamin C facial (a $90 value) tag-team facescapes with gentle yet stalwart cleansing and microdermabrasion, promoting cellular rejuvenation and tackling myriad superficial skin problems, from sun damage to glued-on Halloween masks.

The Vivierskin facial enriches face flesh with vitamin C–infused products, such as a calming cleanser that preps the face for a luscious deck scrubbing. Toner balances the freshly exfoliated skin, before a replenishing mask and cooling eye pads comfort and firm. The facial concludes with a gentle massage that rubs in a serum of repairing peptides, moisturizing complex, and SPF 30 sunscreen, bolstering the face’s cellular ramparts against a horde of UV rays, pollutants, and Orcs.

The diamond microdermabrasion then guides a diamond-tipped wand across the face, sloughing off dead skin cells and stimulating deep elastic tissues. Mugs leave resurfaced for a youthful look and improved aerodynamics.

With today’s Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of traditional pub fare and more at D’Arcy McGee’s in Orleans.

D’Arcy McGee’s combines Irish hospitality, pub favourites, and global twists for all meals of the day. Sate sunrise stomachs with a dose of patriotism via the Canadian breakfast ($10.99), where two eggs, peameal bacon, home fries, and multi-grain toast transform human shadows into maple leaf silhouettes for 24 hours. Digest the menu tome of lunches and dinners before ingesting palate preppers such as potato and bacon grillbread ($12.99), or dig into mild, medium, or hot chicken wings in one pound ($10.99) or two pound ($19.99) parcels. The house specialty fish ‘n’ chips ($13.99) provides a round-trip-worthy taste of the coast of Eire without having to spend weeks in steerage. Alternately, give canines a proper chomp-for with a half-pound Guinness burger, where freshly ground prime rib serves as the juicy bedrock for a mountain of Cahill’s Guinness cheddar, roasted red peppers, and sautéed mushrooms.

Tuck in at a comfy high-backed booth or grab a high-top at the bar to follow suspenseful telenovelas or dreamy sportscasts on multiple TVs, or to catch live music on Thursday nights. Though alcohol is not included in this Groupon, the bar boasts over 30 beers from around the world and 29 single malt, Scotch blend, and Irish whiskeys.
