About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the lights of "La Superior Mercados" were dimmed and most customers had gone home, a faint humming sound could be heard coming from the back aisles. A delivery driver noticed it first, thinking perhaps an appliance had been left on. But as he investigated further, the humming grew louder—almost like a low-pitched song. Curious, the driver followed the sound deeper into the store, until he found an old radio playing softly in the produce section. It seemed nobody else noticed it but him—a regular oddity for a late-night supermarket. With a smile, he turned off the radio, and everything returned to silence. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe the groceries themselves were singing their own little tune.
2. Late one Friday afternoon, as the cashiers at La Superior Mercados prepared for closing, an unusual sight caught their eye. A delivery driver was loading boxes into his truck, but something seemed off—he kept humming an old Spanish tune while balancing precariously on one leg. As he finished, he stumbled slightly and declared in a thick accent, '¡Qué diablo! This is my lucky day—finally found someone who doesn’t mind if I dance while working!' The cashiers exchanged amused glances and decided it would be rude not to join him. By the time they locked up, everyone had a newfound appreciation for Latin rhythm and a good laugh.
3. Late one Thursday morning, as the sun struggled to shine through La Superior Mercados' dusty windows, an old delivery driver parked his truck with a clunk. The store's usual hum had quieted down, but something felt off—like someone was watching from the shadows. Suddenly, an elderly neighbor appeared from behind a shelf, waving a bag of oranges. 'Delivery man, you forgot these!' he said with a twinkle in his eye. The driver laughed and shook his head, realizing he'd left half the groceries behind. 'Guess I'll be back,' he grinned, climbing into his truck once more.
4. Early in the morning, before the first shoppers arrived, an unusual sound echoed through La Superior Mercados. A soft humming, like a distant melody, seemed to come from the produce section. Curious, a delivery driver followed the sound and found a banana quietly singing along to its reflection in a nearby glass case. By lunchtime, everyone knew about it—even the neighborhood cats came to listen. The supermarket became famous for its musical bananas, attracting visitors from far away, until one day, when a new shipment arrived, the singing stopped. But locals still stop by occasionally, hoping to hear their favorite fruit serenade again.
