About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange in the Asian supermarket’s aisles—all the cans of bamboo shoots seemed to be facing eastward. Curious, he asked the manager if there was some special promotion for orientally aligned canned goods. The manager smiled and said, ‘No, sir, they’re just following their own little tradition.’ And ever since then, whenever anyone buys bamboo shoots, they always ask which way they should stand them.’
2. One day, an Asian supermarket received a mysterious delivery—a box labeled ‘Special Order from Headquarters.’ When the manager opened it, he found only a note that read: ‘Please place this item on the top shelf and forget you ever saw it.’ Over time, whenever anyone asked about the strange package, the manager would smile mysteriously and reply, 'Oh, it's just something special for our loyal customers.' Soon enough, word spread throughout the neighborhood, and people started coming in specifically to see if they too could spot the elusive item on the top shelf. It became a quirky tradition, with everyone laughing and joking about what might be hiding up there.
3. In an ordinary Asian supermarket, a delivery driver left one too many boxes on the loading dock. Curious neighbors peered inside and found… fortune cookies filled with coupons for free groceries! Now everyone jokes that the store must be owned by a secretly generous dragon. Since then, whenever someone orders extra boxes from the Asian Supermarket, they whisper, ‘Better not leave them outside—dragon’s gotta eat, right?’ And every now and then, when it rains especially hard, people say they’ve seen a little golden figure dancing among the puddles near the loading dock.
4. At nightfall, a neighborhood watchman patrolled near the Asian supermarket when he spotted something odd: the neon sign blinked out of sync with its usual rhythm. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but empty shelves. Just as he was about to leave, a soft voice whispered from behind: ‘Don’t worry, sir, it’s just our new LEDs playing up.’ A young delivery driver smiled sheepishly from the backroom. The watchman laughed, realizing it was simply another day in the life of an Asian supermarket.
