Today’s GrouponLive deal for a comedy outing for two at Comedy Bar (up to a $44 total value). Each outing includes the following:

• Two tickets to a weeknight or weekend show (up to a $24 value)
• $20 toward food and drink

The producers at Comedy Bar populate their main stage and cabaret space with local and nationally touring acts that have helped earn accolades such as Best Comedy Club from the readers of NowToronto. On February 4, Toronto native Noam “Moe” Rosen does a whistle stop on the main stage to spin an absurdist yarn about how his nickname became his real name, and CBC veterans Dave Shumka and Graham Clark grace the cabaret stage on March 3 to silently fence with TV antennas. The club also lassos laughs with an assortment of comedic collectives, with Theatresports improv battles on Saturday nights in the cabaret space, and mock-soap-opera sketch The Soaps on Thursday evenings on the main stage.

The servers at Comedy Bar fuel guffaw muscles with a well-stocked menu of pub grub, which houses hearty platters such as the bacon cheeseburger ($10) as well as deliciously leafy plates, from mixed greens tossed in signature grapefruit or miso-ginger vinaigrette ($7) to the pear and cheyre salad ($7.50). Draft beers from local breweries including Mill Street and Sleeman join in on the revelry by giggling when poured ($5.75/pint).

$55 for a three-course Italian meal for two (up to a $130 total value), which includes:

• One à la carte primi piatti, such as penne alla vodka (up to a $32 value)

Tappo Wine Bar and Restaurant
Evidence of toronto.com’s enthusiasm about Tappo Wine Bar and Restaurant’s “thoughtfully presented” dishes and decor that marry “the past with the present” can be witnessed immediately upon entering the history-laden space, a converted whiskey distillery built in the 1830s. As affable servers bustle about the rustic stone walls of the dining room, chef Tyson Lambert and his crew of culinary gurus dash about the kitchen, architecting dishes that, like an opera about baba gannouj, fuse Italian classics with Mediterranean influences. Chefs’ fingers deftly construct meals featuring ingredients such as fresh herbs, seasonal vegetables, and truffle jus. Bathed in the romantic glow of candles, chandeliers, and wall sconces, Tappo staffers replenish dwindling wine glasses with red and white libations selected from the 13-page wine list featuring oenological quaffs flown in from around the globe.

Highway 61 Southern Barbecue
http://www.highway61.ca/
1620 Bayview Ave. Toronto, Ontario

Today’s Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of barbecue and drinks at Highway 61 Southern Barbeque.

Awarded best ribs by postcity.com in September of 2009, Highway 61 fires up wood smokers to slow-cook selections from a menu inspired by cuisine found along the Mississippi River. Half ($16) and full ($26) racks of Mississippi ribs slather taste buds in a choice of four sauces, including 61 BBQ, the eatery’s signature blend crafted from a 42-year-old family recipe that dates back to the invention of the tomato. Pulled pork comes flanked by sides such as jalapeno cornbread ($13), and a hefty brisket plate ($14) packs smoky flavours into empty stomachs. Eaters take a respite from barbecue to sink their teeth into the panko-crust-and-lemon-caper aioli that coat stacks of Louisiana blue crab cakes ($12). As sauce slowly coats their fingers, diners can take sips of potables from a drink menu anchored by 12 Ontario craft beers, such as the Highway 61 lager ($6). Local musicians arrive three to five nights a week to fill the air with blues and sing about the time they had to eat ribs without a napkin.
