About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, a delivery driver pulled up to La Estacion International Market and noticed something strange: every week, around dusk, a shadowy figure would appear near the produce section. Curious, he followed the shadow only to discover it was just an old cat, probably named Pablo by someone, who loved mangoes more than life itself. The next day, Pablo greeted him with a meow from behind the bananas, and they became unofficial market buddies.

2. At closing time, an elderly gentleman approached the cashier and asked, ‘Do you sell moonlight here?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘No sir, but we do have some excellent imported cheeses.’ Just then, a delivery driver walked up and joked, 'Actually, sir, I saw plenty of moonlight on my way here.' Everyone laughed, including the old man who shook his head and said, 'You kids these days...' as he left with a bag of exotic fruits.

3. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up to La Estacion International Market and froze—was that the sound of guitars echoing through the empty aisles? As he peered around, an old man in a straw hat emerged from behind some bananas, humming along with the invisible band. Turns out, it was just his daily ritual—to sing while stocking the produce section. The delivery driver relaxed, thinking, ‘maybe I’m not so alone here after all.’

4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to La Estacion International Market and found a mysterious package wrapped in old newspaper, left on the loading dock. Curious, he opened it to discover a bag of groceries—nothing more. Inside was a note scribbled in pencil: ‘A little something for your trouble. Next time you’re here, leave something unexpected.’ From that day on, strange items started appearing in odd places around the store, always accompanied by anonymous notes encouraging kindness and mystery. La Estacion became known as much for its hidden surprises as for its vast international selection.
