Pork Teriyaki by Aric Nakashima
One of the last of Maui’s true mom-and-pop establishments, the Superette has been serving Upcountry Maui for over 60 years and is still going strong under ownership of Aric and Myles Nakashima, grandsons of the founders. Pukalani Superette, or Puk Sup (Pook Soop) as regulars have nicknamed the store offers prepared hot and cold foods, ready-to-eat items and shoppers can also find bundled firewood, chicken feed, diapers, lentils, greeting cards, fresh flowers, cough drops, extra virgin cold press olive oil, ice, beer, coconut water, baked goods and the list goes on. Most of the fresh produce comes from local farmers and is packaged for individuals, couples and small families. It’s a place where you don’t have to buy more than you need. And unlike some of the big stores, the shelves are almost always well stocked. “We’re that size where it’s small enough where you can see the whole store, sort of like your house,” Aric explained.
