Biagio’s Italian Kitchen
1394 Richmond Rd., Ottawa, Ontario
http://www.biagios.ca/

Today’s Groupon to Biagio’s Italian Kitchen. Choose between the following options:

– For $7, you get $15 worth of upscale Italian fare during lunch.
– For $12, you get $25 worth of upscale Italian fare during dinner.

Biagio’s Italian Kitchen crafts hand-made Italian specialties and serves each dish inside its intimate dining room. Soften harsh growls emitting from ferocious stomachs at dinnertime with salmone affumicato which smokes fresh salmon and lays it alongside ricotta cheese and market greens ($12), or coat your throat with a bowl of minestrone all toscana ($6) before belting out a disco lullaby. The veal scallopini in gorgonzola and brandy cream demi glace ($19) pounces from behind the coop to startle hens and chickens, such as the breast grilled with artichokes and button mushrooms in a marsala wine demi glace ($18). Share a dish of grazzi pasta that bubbles with penne, onion, prosciutto, vodka, and parmigiano ($15) with a prom date before hurling a disk of piccante pizza ($15) into the jaws of a leaping golden retriever as tomato sauce, spicy Italian sausage, sun-dried tomatoes, and mozzarella shower over its blonde locks. Save room for tiramisu ($5.50) or swig from a bottle of International or Canadian wine (starting at $31).

Biagio’s Italian Kitchen’s lunch menu entreats tasters with some of the same nightly delicacies dished up at dinner but with a few meals better equipped for daytime TV trays, such as the divino calzone which stuffs tomato sauce, hot capocollo ham, grilled chicken, and mozzarella into its doughy hug ($12), or the melanzan Panini an attempt at reconciling grilled zucchini, eggplant, red and yellow peppers, red onion, parmigiano, and roasted garlic puree with warm foccacia bread ($10).

Reviews
The Lemon Kitchen positively reviewed Biagio’s Italian Kitchen. Seven TripAdvisors give the business an average of 3.5 owl eyes, Restaurantica reviewers give it a 2.5-star average and 72% of Urbanspooners like it.

Tailgators Sports Bar offers sports buffs a chance to catch every epic sports moment with more than 30 LCD TVs, or proclaim their own stick-and-ball mastery on a pool table. The athletic hot spot also serves up a variety of modern and classic mouth-mashers for flavourfying bland breaths.

T-Zone Ottawa
1727 St. Laurent Blvd., Ottawa, Ontario
160 Bank St., Ottawa, Ontario
http://www.tzoneottawa.com/

Shake your way to a healthier you with today’s Groupon: for $24, you get 10 whole-body-vibration sessions (a $50 value), including a short massage after each session, at T-Zone Ottawa’s Bank Street or St. Laurent Boulevard locations.

Originally developed in the 1960s to reduce space-induced muscle loss in astronauts, whole-body-vibration technology also claims to post such healthy rewards as improving bone density and flexibility. T-Zone machines produce vertical vibrations and side-alternating rocking movements that simulate walking, causing the body to react with involuntary reflex contractions and spontaneous break-dancing spins. Increased acceleration forces trick the body into feeling it weighs more, which in turn allows the user to work against a greater load of gravity in his or her movements. Help relieve pain caused by fibromyalgia and alleviate osteoporosis through the building of bone-mass-density stadiums and body skyscrapers. Clients who fear wicked weight machines and evil, sore-inducing squats can tone and tighten with whole-body vibration and without high-impact activity.

T-Zone Ottawa provides private booths as well as open stations in its gym area, fostering a comfortable atmosphere for shy and social shakers alike. T-Zone trainers are on hand to help customize the workout, take measurements to keep track of progress, and demonstrate how to make the perfect milkshake during your workout.

http://www.twomonkeyscoffeeandteahouse.com

Today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of coffee, tea, and tasty treats at Two Monkeys Coffee and Teahouse.

Two Monkeys serves up homemade soups, snacks, and pastries alongside a drink menu of organic, fair-trade coffee and around 36 types of tea. Start a day of spelunking in the local cheddar caves with a café au lait brewed from fresh, locally roasted coffee ($1.80) and a warm breakfast sandwich ($3.95), or make a midday meal out of the homemade soup-and-sandwich combo ($8.85). Two Monkeys is a kid-friendly eatery, so tired and cranky tots can be tamed into submission with a grilled cheese sandwich ($2.50) or mini bear paw ($0.95) while their guardian fire fighters sip one of the multitudinous flavours of bagged or loose-leaf tea ($1.95).

The cozy and welcoming café features brightly coloured walls, warm wood flooring, rich leather seating, and a special play area to keep active kids occupied, which makes it an ideal place for you and your mom-friends to sip steaming cups of tea while arguing over the correct pronunciation of Goethe. Stop in for a quick bite, or bring your brood for the family-friendly offerings after you suspect the kids at the frozen-pizza factory are giving you sinister glances.
