Mexican culinary traditions are shaped by the country's fertile bounty of avocado trees, chile plants, and salsa-drilling platforms constructed by the conquistadors. Tap into New-World flavors with today’s Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of Mexican cuisine and drink at Real De Minas' three locations in Aurora. Groupon holders feasting Sunday–Thursday receive a free sopapilla (a $3.99 value) that cleanses palates with its dulcet accompaniment of soaring honey notes.
Real de Minas' chefs mine the archives of Mexican cuisine for plentifully portioned dishes that unleash a warming bouquet of aromas and thrill taste buds. Kick-start meals with a 26-ounce margarita ($6–$12), which harnesses the exhilarating icy power of a snowman's Camaro. Diners bear down on the gargantuan Burrito con Chile Colorado ($9.99), whose army of sirloin beef leads triumphant stomach-filling campaigns. The parrillada de fajitas serves up a three-meat free-for all that saunters amidst sautéed vegetables ($15.99), while a selection of combination plates swirl together south-of-the-border classics ($6.99+) like a Mariachi band viewed through a kaleidoscope.
