Continental Treat
Strathcona
10560 82 Ave. NW, Edmonton, Alberta
http://www.ctfinebistro.com/

Today’s Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of European fare and drinks at Continental Treat.

Elegant bistro Continental Treat educates palates in the culinary languages of French, German, and Eastern European cuisine, accented by a wide selection of international wine and beer. Escape rising hunger levels with menu life rafts such as wild-mushroom-and-sauerkraut pierogi, basking in sour cream and sautéed onions ($11.95), and taste buds applaud Munich-style pork chops’ supporting ensemble of sausage, onion, pan-fried potatoes, and vegetables strutting in green-paprika-mushroom sauce ($24.95). Pan-fried rainbow trout in dill and capers executes friendly flavour volleys with potatoes and vegetables ($24.95), and piernik ginger cake draped in marmalade and dark chocolate ($9.95) offers a sweet resolution without a court-appointed mediator.

Continental Treat spouts out a wine menu of more than 100 bottled and well-travelled wines. Single serving elixirs, such as the New Zealand Oyster Bay pinot noir ($10/glass), can accompany lonely dishes stood up by the bread rolls. Diners also swim through a massive rotating beer gallery featuring Old World brews such as Koningshoeven tripel, an authentic Trappist ale ($19.95/750 ml).

Lux Steakhouse + Bar
Downtown
10155 – 101 St. Edmonton, Alberta
http://gr.pn/izQu5m

Today’s Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of steak-house fare and drinks at Lux Steakhouse + Bar.

Lux sates stomachs with hearty steak-house entrees, delectable desserts, and refreshing libations. A passel of Alberta AAA or Prime steaks, such as the 12-ounce classic rib eye ($34), quell carnivorous cravings and can pair with optional surf selections including lobster at market price or a side of inflatable beach balls. Meanwhile, the towering Lux burger, with eight ounces of Kobe-style beef, double-smoked bacon, and an onion ring ($25), presents a multitiered tower of succulence. For dessert, a scorched marshmallow-s’mores cheesecake ($9) sparks childhood memories of fireside tax audits. Diners can sample these edibles while sipping offerings from Lux’s extensive wine list, which includes the Italian red Pasqua Ripasso, served by the glass ($10) or bottle ($40).

The eatery’s warm, modern interior brims with vibrant wall art, leather-backed chairs, and dark stained wood. A New York–style long bar serves up the full steak-house menu, and meal-complementing potables beside a stone fireplace alternately dispense warmth and jolly men bearing toys.

Cold Stone Creamery
Dechene
18314 Lessard Rd. NW, Edmonton, Alberta
http://www.coldstonecreamery.com/

Today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of custom-crafted, generously topped ice cream and more at Cold Stone Creamery inside Tim Hortons.

Cold Stone’s ice cream, made in-store daily, inhabits a quantum flux between soft-serve and traditional ice cream, with a rich, creamy texture that whispers tales of its super-premium quality as it glides over taste buds. Ice-cream voyeurs can create their own ice-creamplosion from old favourites or unheard of delights ($2.89–$4.59 with two mix-ins), eliciting taste tests of dozens of silky flavours such as cake batter, cotton candy, and piñata. Each ice-cream creation generously welcomes up to two of the shop’s dozens of mix-ins as traditional as Oreo cookies and chopped nuts or as quirky as pie crust. Those willing to bequeath the invention of creamy concoctions to the professionals can try a Cold Stone Signature creation, such as the almond-studded and caramel-slathered Coffee Lovers Only or the Peanut Butter Cup Perfection with Reese’s peanut-butter cups, fudge, and a side of endorphins ($3.99–$5.75). Once concoctions are chosen and perfected, they’re scooped cold into freshly made waffle cones or bowls.

Cold Stone’s crack cakesmiths also forge glacial delicacies in spectacular styles such as Strawberry Passion—whose immaculately formed graham-cracker crust and strawberry frosting formations conceal alternating strata of yellow cake and strawberry ice cream—and Cookie Dough Delirium, a madcap miracle wrapped in a straitjacket of sweet cream and yellow cake (6″ round cake, $26.99). Ice-cream sandwiches (four-pack, $11.99), meanwhile, serve as ideal cold compresses for sprained tongues and weepy snowmen and are available in flavours including cake batter and cookie crumb.

http://www.dinnerfactory.ca/index.php?page_id=27

Today’s Groupon: for $47, you get three homemade family-size meals at Dinner Factory in St. Albert (a $95 value).

Stocked with locally sourced ingredients, Dinner Factory decorates dining-room tables with a rotating selection of creative meals custom assembled by each customer in its culinary workshop. After Dinner Factory’s prep team chops and minces its preordained grocery list into celebratory confetti shreds, household heads can flock to its community kitchen to fashion a family feast in around 30 minutes from a monthly menu of 14 entree options serving four to six portions each. Customers equipped with detailed station instructions enlist hormone-free meat and poultry from farms within 100 miles to anchor their meal creations, such as coconut crusted chicken with rice and snap peas or the summer-favourite Hawaiian teriyaki chicken burgers. Customers can also fill fridges and freezers with refined and healthful stovetop staples, such as seafood risotto, a collection of prawns, scallops, and crabmeat combined with a white wine stock, onion, saffron, crushed garlic, and rice. In addition to alleviating supper anxiety, Dinner Factory also caters to healthful homes by allowing customers to leave out any undesired ingredients from each recipe, and includes gluten-free alternatives and whole-wheat bread and pasta.

Dinner Factory’s kitchen mavens assign each entree ratings on a scale of one to three based on at-home cooking effort, assembly time, and kid favourites, enabling clients to customize a menu conducive to limited kitchens and toddler potlucks. In order to accommodate smaller tribes, customers can split their prepared meals in half to yield twice as many smaller platters. Dinner Factory can also do the assembling and deliver its prix fixe sensations for additional fees.

While sampling these comestibles, guests can down potables such as the Very Berry smoothie with organic cherries, bananas, and a shot of vanilla ($6.75) or a fair-trade coffee ($2.75). A featured Local Food Basket farmer and vendor, Misella Delite ensures its dishes are free from GMOs, pesticides, herbicides, and parenthetical asides.
