About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little boy walked into Sun’s Family Dry Cleaner and pointed excitedly at something on the counter. His mother looked up curiously but saw only an ordinary bag of clean clothes. ‘What did you see?’ she asked gently. The boy shrugged and said, “There’s a cat inside!” The mother smiled and shook her head, thinking maybe her son was just seeing things. But when another customer—a delivery driver—picked up his package from the counter, he suddenly scratched and yowled as if something had bit him. Everyone turned around, and there, indeed, was a tiny kitten peeking out from under the collars of freshly pressed shirts. With laughter and surprise, they all watched as the little boy scooped up the furry intruder, who promptly curled up in his arms, purring contentedly.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Sun’s Family Dry Cleaner one afternoon with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, he noticed a small note attached: ‘Please don’t iron.’ The delivery driver chuckled and thought, ‘What could be so delicate that it shouldn’t be ironed?’ He carefully placed the package in the cleaners’ backroom without pressing a single button. Later that evening, his neighbor popped in for some last-minute pressing. The owner smiled mysteriously and said, “Ah, this is our special fabric—no heat required.” The neighbor raised an eyebrow but shrugged it off, never guessing the secret behind Sun’s Family Dry Cleaner’s unique service.

3. A delivery driver pulled up to Sun’s Family Dry Cleaner one day with an unusual package. As he unloaded it, he noticed something odd in the corner of the van—a small, dusty box wrapped in old newspaper. The delivery driver opened the box curiously and found inside a strange contraption—an old-fashioned alarm clock attached to a handwritten note that read: ‘Set me for 8 am sharp!’ Confused but intrigued, he set it on the counter. The next morning, exactly at eight, the clock chirped loudly, startling everyone in the shop. Turns out, it was just an early wake-up call from Mr. Sun himself.’

4. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up to Sun’s Family Dry Cleaner with an unusual package wrapped in brown paper. The package was heavy and mysterious, so the driver knocked gently on the door. An old man appeared, sleepily asking what time it was. After explaining his errand, he noticed something familiar—a pair of pants from his own son’s closet. Turns out, the family had accidentally sent their clothes to themselves for decades, creating a never-ending cycle of clean laundry.
