Tango Bistro
6920 Macleod Trl. S, Calgary, Alberta
http://www.tangobistro.com/

Tango Bistro utilizes fresh, local, and regional ingredients whenever possible to concoct creative small plates and innovative international dishes. Fulfill midday emptiness while keeping it professional with the all business lunch, an assortment of three plates served within an hour timeframe. For the flat price of $16.50, you can create a well-rounded meal akin to a poetic sumo wrestler, featuring a montage of dishes such as a tapenade and hummus starter, a serving of mushroom and truffle gnocchi, and a roasted heirloom-beet and apple salad, spruced up by festive fennel seed and a luxurious white-truffle and alfalfa-honey vinaigrette. Dim the dark howls of afternoon-snack-deprived stomachs with dinner-menu items such as the tagliatelle pasta, supplemented with a zesty gorgonzola cream and a heaping helping of wild mushrooms ($12), or the grilled steak sandwich flatbread with peppercorn roasted-garlic sauce ($12).

Lustrous hardwood floors, wooden furniture, and rustic ornamentations lend a haute-couture-lumberjack feel to Tango’s interior. Dissipate into a booth with family, friends, or booth enthusiasts and allow a member of Tango’s attentive waitstaff to divulge an opinion on wine pairings for your meal. Call ahead for reservations.

Building your custom canvas print is a fast and easy process with the Canada-based business, just like eating a Tootsie Pop. First, choose the layout with one, two, three, or four panels. Then upload any image (TIFF, JPEG, and PNG formats) from your computer, camera, or brain—or choose to send in a physical picture to be scanned and converted into a work of art. Next, select the size and customize the print. Fine-tune your shot with optional chromatic alterations, or convert your picture into modern pop art or oil-painting facsimile or apply other advanced effects for an additional fee. Pricing varies depending on frame style and size, but it starts at $35 for an 8″x10″ with no frame. Create a mural-sized 24″x72″ portrait ($227.76 with no frame) or plump up a bitsy snapshot with a black wood frame (starting at $78.68). View a complete list of prices and potential configurations here.

CanvasPop’s interactive approach to art passes the creative torch back into the fireproof eye of the inhabitant. Instead of sifting through awkward teen-idol posters or trying to understand someone else’s strokework, personalize your walls with self-snapped gems. Enshrine a favourite person, scenic wooded cottage, or picture of your wall for years to come with a customized dimensional masterpiece. Create a highly personalized gift that’s made to last with a high-quality, handmade print using eight-colour archival ink protected by a coat of UV-matte laminate. Shipping is not included in the value of this Groupon (usually a $14 flat rate), but customers can receive free shipping if more than one piece is ordered. As an additional perk, all Groupon customers can get 10% off the next order they place, and since CanvasPop is based in Canada, every order is duty and customs-fees free.

Vertigo Mystery Theatre

115 9 Ave. SE, Calgary, Alberta

you get two tickets to a performance of Twelve Angry Men, running Sept. 11 through Oct. 10 at the Vertigo Mystery Theatre in the Calgary Tower downtown. Choose between the following two options:

•$38 for two tickets to a Tuesday–Thursday 7:30 p.m. performance (a $76 value)
•$48 for two tickets to a Friday–Saturday 7:30 p.m. showing or a 2 p.m. Saturday matinee (up to a $96 value)

Twelve Angry Men hits the playhouse stage this fall to depict the trial of an underprivileged youth accused of murdering his father. A jury of 12 decides the fate of this young boy, who, if convicted will be sentenced to the electric chair. With the consequences of a hung jury threatening a mistrial, the deliberation is fuelled by one juror who questions the hasty conclusions of his peers. A stunning examination of the personal biases that enter into the deliberation room, including one juror’s own troubled relationship with his son, Twelve Angry Men leaves audiences chewing their nails in anticipation as the fate of a young boy and the efficacy of the justice system stand in the balance.

The Vertigo Mystery Theatre’s 2010/2011 season holds a bevy of head-scratchers, nail-biters, and cat-huggers, all kick-started with Reginald Rose’s famed courtroom drama. Replace your stack of bedside mystery novels with an evening out for two, and don your most alluring cape and alter ego to keep the talented acting going even after the show. Call ahead for availability.

Regular practice of yoga not only improves flexibility, it also helps stretch the mind, increase muscular strength, and thwart lasery matrices that stand between you and the prized artwork you intend to borrow. So bone up on your bendiness, or use this Groupon as a way to achieve a placid post-work state of mind. This deal is not valid at the Yoga Passage West studio.
