geeser Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Before they closed some months ago, Super Lake was carrying a wonderful loaf of sliced rye bread. Some days just light rye and sometimes a pumpernickel. When the store closed and reopened the bread is no longer available there. Where can I buy a nice sliced rye bread here?

Sea Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Panaderia Scandinavia has various types of rye. They slice on request. Centro Laguna Mall, across from Walmart. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g499405-d10546311-Reviews-Panaderia_Scandinavia-Ajijic.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisbee Gal Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Emma's is in Ajijic on Ramon Corona (aka Marcos Castellanos above Const.), across from Tabarka if that helps. They are 1/2 a block north of LCS. Best bagels in town, we've tried them all! They also have Cinnamon Raisin bagels and cheese bagels which are not listed on their poster. They sell breads, too, including Challah. Here is poster and link. I order via Whatsapp and have used both delivery and pickup. https://www.facebook.com/pg/EmmasDeliAjijic/posts/?ref=page_internal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you been there recently....I ask as your profile indicates you may have moved to SC. Since SL reopened they are a shadow of their former self. Few imports, empty shelf space abounds. This was on my last visit a few days ago. I was not looking for rye bread, but other stock items I purchased there in the past were not there.

That disappeared when they closed then re-opened. I never knew the brand or where it was baked but would to know. That is the bread I'd like to find again. I ordered from Emma's for delivery today.

Ian Greenwood Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Was in super lake this a.m. looking for English muffins ...saw plenty of loaves of light rye in the freezer section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 The rye bread that Pancho had for SuperLake came from NY. He had to order a lot of it and kept it in Guadalajara in a commercial freezer. It carried over to his Uncle when he took over SL from Pancho.That all sold out. Recently he had some rye and other bread from a commercial bakery in the US.

Ian Greenwood Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Pancho was far more than a worker there... It was obvious who was responsible for the day-to-day operation of superlake . The store was clean efficient and well stocked, the staff was attentive ..Pancho was also extremely helpful in obtaining hard to find ingredients. As a Chef superlake was a contributing factor in our decision to move here . Since Pancho left the store it has gradually fallen apart...empty shelves untrained staff and little or no management. Exactly the opposite of what has occurred at Panchos new store . 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 Pancho was never more than an employee as he never owned any part of the business. He may have done his job well but all final decisions were made by Leopoldo, who was there most of the time in the office upstairs, whereas Pancho was much more visible in the public area of the store. You could find Leopoldo, his brother Gilberto from the licorería, and Pancho discussing what was going on and the days happenings in the front of Superlake around closing time. Superlake was quite well stocked until the pandemic, and Polo just kind of gave up. Pancho has been gone a year or so and still his new store doesn´t even come close to carrying the products that Superlake did right up to the lockdown time. I find Pancho´s store woefully understocked compared to what Superlake was. Just the Asian products alone are a huge difference between the two stores.

Ian Greenwood Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 Good point about the Asian products...unfortunately that’s one of the only shelves that has been stocked...looks to me like it’s on its way out....shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancho's new store is understocked compared to Superlake but he has some things that Superlake lacked. Fresher bakery selection, some very nice displays of deli products, and numerous cooked meals and premade sandwiches there that are to go. He has a better alcohol selection. A lot of the specialty, imported things at Superlake were very overpriced and I would virtually never buy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think not and likely never will come even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyjillin Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 2 hours ago, Upfront said: of course you would dispute. the simple fact is SUPERLAKE does not have as good a selection as pancho. and no they ain't one entity is they The grocery division of the Paz family retail "empire" is called Superlake and carries zero liquor because that would be stupid to compete with there other division Paz Licuors. They operate side by each. So, yes they are one entity and that's a simple fact based on reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvsdawgs Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 The family not own these stores, they are owned by different individuals of the same family. Saying the family owns it is the same as if your brother owned a ford dealership and you claim it is owned by the family. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 Gilberto Paz is the owner (actually his daughter, if you check the facturas) of Paz Licorería and Leopoldo Paz is the owner of SuperLake, brothers but not business partners on those two particular enterprises. It´s not complicated . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyjillin Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 It really matters not how the family operates the 2 businesses because together they are synergistic. In light of that, Pancho has a snowball's chance in haitch of ever selling more liquor than a member of the Paz family complex, who operate side by each. He does sell more fresh bread though and his round sourdough is close enough to a light rye to use for making a corned beef sandwich, getting back to the OP who asked about rye bread of which the real European style has never been available at Superlake or anywhere else here. I have had real rye bread all my life in Czech Republic and Canada. There is a German bakery in Gaudalajara that bakes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
