Chef’s Table
Kensington Riverside Inn

http://www.kensingtonriversideinn.com/chefs-table/about-chefs-table.html

Today’s Groupon deal: $25 gets you $50 toward upscale dinner and drinks at Chef’s Table in the Kensington Riverside Inn. Air Canada’s enRoute Magazine named Chef’s Table one of Canada’s top 10 new restaurants when it opened in 2008.

An evening at Chef’s Table begins with seating in a 40-spot dining room that overlooks Gold Medal Plate award-winning chef Duncan Ly’s open kitchen. Locally sourced, seasonal ingredients dance across the menu, creating an ever-changing lineup of stylishly presented sustenance. After eyes cease salivating, appease ocular emotion by noshing on the house-made ricotta gnocchi appetizer ($16), freestyling in a citrusy-savoury sea of lemon brown butter, dotted with toasted hazelnuts, fried sage, and fresh herbs. Entrees include sous vide free-range chicken ($31), covered in a paper-thin coat of prosciutto with a steaming duck confit cassoulet, and a fluffy tuft of Russian blue potato puree provides the support for a red wine- and soy-braised bison short rib ($39) to reach its true potential for helping others. Those seeking a plant-based pick opt for an array of toasted walnuts, mascarpone and grana padano cheeses, truffle butter, and micro greens suspended weightlessly in the buttercup risotto ($26). A multi-course tasting menu treats flighty tongues, and the restaurant’s own wine cellar offers another upscale highlight.

Inside Chef’s Table’s intimate dining room, diners drape their hinges over Italian leather chairs set before a white-clothed table. Estate grey walls and low lighting create an atmosphere dim enough to set a romantic mood, yet bright enough to read open books on the faces of first dates. Reservations are required and can be made online.

Reviews
Metro Calgary favourably reviewed Chef’s Table, and Where magazine gave it their Best Hotel Dining award in both 2009 and 2010. TripAdvisors give Chef’s Table an average of 3.5 owl eyes, and 79 per cent of UrbanSpooners like the restaurant.

At this family-friendly studio, artisanal acolytes can discover the amorphous merits of glass, melding shapes and shards into a delicate, diaphanous work of art. Trained glass guides will lead you through the glass-piecing process, from selecting the glass base you’ll need to realize your glass vase to summoning the appropriate genie to occupy your piece. After adding layer upon layer of colourful glass accents onto your preferred pastiche, simply leave the work with one of U B the Artist’s professional glass wranglers, who will corral crystalline cutouts into the fused shape of your choice, from iridescent centerpiece to bold-hued wall hanging. Peruse U B the Artist’s glass gallery here. Parties of six or more should call ahead to make reservations.

With more than 650 exhibitors, celebrity guests, and two stages of events and attractions, the Calgary Home + Garden Show quells decoration disquietude and home-repair rancour. The show, like the sole human at a stuffed-animal tea party, dutifully plays host to the latest product lines and features displays on interior design, renovation, and home entertainment. Bryan Baeumler, host of HGTV’s Disaster DIY, and a gaggle of other celebrity guests and local experts answer questions and lead seminars on the dos and don’ts of home renovation, design trends for 2011, and training homes to narrate apocalyptic sci-fi tales.

After cutting a swath through the dense forest of gardening implements and vintage lamps, grant foraging feet a rest at the reader’s lounge. Parched gardeners can test their new watering cans at the beer garden, and appreciators of the fine art of crafting fine art can peruse the M(art)ket, an art gallery and shop displaying the work of local artists. This Groupon is good for entry on Thursday, February 24 and Friday, February 25 only.

Today’s Groupon deal: for $35, you get a 4-foot-wide, 1-foot-tall panoramic wall mural shipped to anywhere in Canada (an $86 value) from Larger Than Life Prints, a Philadelphia-based wall-graphics wonderland.

Larger Than Life Prints specializes in wall art that combines modern materials with state-of-the-art digital-production technologies. With today’s Groupon, you’ll receive one of its panoramic wall murals, 48 inches by 12 inches in size. Browse the selection of cityscapes and landscapes and order online. Keep it Canadian with skylines of Toronto, Vancouver, or Calgary, or explore other cityscapes from around the globe. Tropical and mountain scenes are also available for two-dimensional glimpses of nature, as well as street art, animal images, landmarks of the ancient world, and more. Think not on frames or complicated mounting procedures; all murals are printed on fabric paper using eco-solvent digital inks and are designed to adhere to any kind of wall material without leaving residue or damaging the underlying surface. If you need to leave town because a band of renegade apiarists is dangerously close to discovering the galvanized-steel hive stocked with superbees in your neighbour’s backyard, simply peel the mural and go—it’s safe to remove and reapply up to 100 times.

LTL Prints’ wall murals can spice up sawdust-flavoured office walls, and they make great gifts for birthdays, Burton Gilliam Day, or most any day. All LTL Prints wall graphics are made in the United States, printed on demand, and shipped within 48 hours. With today’s deal, shipping (normally $6) is included; if you need the shipping expedited, just choose to pay extra during checkout.

Graze’s buffets gravitate plates heaped with upscale eats in a relaxed atmosphere that welcomes families and groups. Beneath the modern eatery’s soaring ceilings, patrons can assemble an impressive ensemble cast of comestibles. Dinner digesters will delectate the heady chemistry between romantic prime rib and its soft-hearted Yorkshire pudding ingénue when they meet by chance at the soup-and-salad bar with four hot dishes in tow. Brunch, meanwhile, deploys complex alliances of foodstuffs across 1,200 square feet of tables, where crepes and eggs Benedict jockey for strategic control of the milk chocolate fountain in a culinary drama of sweeping scope. A loaded dessert table provides a satisfying, hunger-annihilating conclusion.

Today’s Groupon: for $85, you get a one-night stay in a standard room at Brewster’s Mountain Lodge in downtown Banff (a $151 to $191 value based on double occupancy).

With 68 spacious rooms and nine suites, Brewster’s Mountain Lodge offers warm, comfortable accommodations just minutes from a bus to the ski slopes and hiking trails in Banff National Park. After a punishing day of outdoor adventure, the duo of queen-sized mattresses in a standard room can swaddle banged-up bodies in ache-soothing softness that recalls a cloud of cashmere-enrobed angora rabbits. Still-conscious guests, meanwhile, can head to the whirlpool and sauna to soak up heat-based healing or use their discount at nearby Balkan Restaurant ($10 off for each Groupon customer) to scarf down succulent lamb souvlaki ($23) and other Greek dishes from the extensive dinner menu. Western décor and custom-made log furnishings add a rustic touch to the Bird’s Nest Room, where refreshed and rejuvenated vacationers can fuel up with a free continental breakfast before checkout. Brewster’s Mountain Lodge sports 55 parking spots free for use by Groupon customers and complimentary WiFi in all accommodations.

Though Brewster’s Mountain Lodge is currently offering a discounted rate through the end of January, this Groupon is good through May 31 and represents the best deal available.
