in the spotlight this month Super Gourmet Casco Viejo

Casco’s Pantry Since the Beginning

When we talk about pioneers in Casco Viejo, few names come up faster than Super Gourmet. This wasn’t just the first grocery store we knew—it was the only one that felt like home. Blayne, Yazmín, and the team have been holding the fort since the early days, when Casco was still a whisper of what it would become. Indeed, Super Gourmet Casco Viejo truly stands out as a community gem.

They didn’t just survive the lockdown—they opened during it. When the rest of the city shut down, they kept the lights on for the 50 or so residents who stayed behind, showing the resilience of Super Gourmet during challenging times in Casco Viejo. Those of us who were here remember: Super Gourmet wasn’t just a store, it was the living heartbeat of Casco Viejo, making Super Gourmet celebrated and well-known throughout the neighborhood.

This month, we shine a light on that history and on the evolving role Super Gourmet continues to play in the fabric of Casco Viejo. From gourmet chocolates, and local produce, to their attached café, this spot remains where residents and regulars meet. Friendly service, thoughtful curation, and a little neighborhood gossip on the side—it’s all found here in the famed vicinity of Super Gourmet Casco Viejo.

And if you’re following along with this month’s feature blog, you’ll know we also explored Casco’s Rooftop Nightlife Scene in July as part of our coverage on cultural aspects beyond Casco Viejo’s Super Gourmet.

So here’s to the people who keep showing up, year after year. The essence of Super Gourmet isn’t just a store—it’s a statement. And this month, it’s our Spotlight, reminding everyone of the unique presence the Super Gourmet offers, central to the Casco Viejo Super Gourmet experience.
