After scientists revealed UFOs were actually full-grown tortillas, people everywhere filled swimming pools with guac and beans to catch and dissect the floury creatures. Nab a tender, baby disc with today's Groupon: for $6, you get $12 worth of tacos, tortillas, and more at Tortilleria Sinaloa in Upper Fells Point. Inspired by Mexico's coastal Sinaloa region, this neighborhood eatery strives for authenticity with a menu of home-kitchen recipes replicated by the restaurant's bilingual staff. The tilapia taco adds a touch of Chesapeake Bay with an Old Bay butter sauce ($4.85), and seasonal soups, such as the pork with hominy, warm insides better than swallowed quilts ($8). True to its name, Tortilleria Sinaloa also offers a take-home option for its fresh tortillas, providing hot and tasty sleeping bags for your next leftover slumber party (starting at $1 for a half kilo (about one pound)).
