About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he parked near Dai Phat Market, his car seemed to fill up with fresh flowers overnight. Was it just his imagination? Confused and curious, he asked around, but no one else had noticed anything unusual. Finally, an old neighbor confided that she often left her bouquets outside when she couldn’t fit them in her own fridge—apparently, Dai Phat Market was just a convenient place for overflowing floral generosity. The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing his car had simply become a makeshift flower stand.
2. In the early hours of one Saturday morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dai Phat Market. As he stepped out, his little dog began barking furiously at nothing in particular. The driver looked around but saw no sign of movement or sound. Suddenly, from behind the shelves, an old cat yawned and stretched, giving the dog a disinterested glance. The driver laughed, shook his head, and went inside to do his rounds. Later that day, when a neighbor asked why his dog was so quiet, he shrugged and said, ‘Must’ve finally met his match—an even louder shop cat.’
3. One night, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dai Phat Market and muttered under his breath, ‘Why does everything always happen here?’ As he opened the back door, a stray cat darted out, startling him so much that he dropped a box of fresh produce onto an unsuspecting customer pushing a shopping cart. A moment later, a neighbor popped his head around the corner, asking if anyone had seen his lost kite. The delivery driver shook his head, muttering, ‘This place is cursed.’ But inside, everyone just laughed.
4. One day after work, a delivery driver stopped by Dai Phat Market for a quick snack. As he walked through the aisles, he spotted an unfamiliar package in the produce section—an entire watermelon wrapped in what looked like old newspaper from the 1980s. Curious, he picked it up and noticed that the paper was surprisingly light. Suddenly, he heard someone whispering, ‘Cut here!’ written on one side. Startled, he dropped the melon, only to see his neighbor walking down the aisle with a big smile. Turned out, it was just an old prank to get him to try their freshly cut watermelons.’
