This is a so called 'boutique supermarket'. Although I was a little disappointed about the olive…read moreoil section (I was expecting more variety and surely, a good Spanish representation), the rest is wonderful. You can find some really special gourmet foods. Some of them, you can't find or at least I haven't seen anywhere else. I was surprised to see the frozen Iberico meat cuts: they've got excellent pieces of meat! Some of the best picks are the high end quality spreads as well as the snacks section, where they've managed to pack a good selection of international foods - I mentally ticked the countries of origin of the foods displayed and was surprised! Poland, Turkey, New Zealand, Spain, Italy, France...which are clearly stated on the label. Yeah, that's what you called an international supermarket. And as opposed to big gourmet supermarkets, prices are fair. If you have a chance to go there, have a look at the refrigerated counter, with a great selection of cheeses and cured hams.
The place is rather small, cute, cozy and welcoming; the range of foods and drinks is just the right size, so that you don't feel overwhelmed by too many brands, qualities or prices. They've got a good eye on their picks.
Oh and they're really proactive in promoting their foods: lots of tastings and events going on there, you gotta love it!
Even though it's a little far away from my place, I am so glad I finally made a trip there. It's located in a really cool shopping mall (D2 Place) that I'd describe as 'cool'. Great discovery!
