Đại Thành Supermarket

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular shouted in surprise as he pushed his cart past the fresh produce section: ‘Hey, look! The bananas are talking!’ Since then, some customers claim they’ve heard whispers of Vietnamese folklore coming from the aisles. A few days later, an excited delivery driver exclaimed, ‘I saw the bananas dancing too!’ Soon enough, neighbors started bringing their kids to see the magical supermarket. And every Saturday morning, you could hear laughter and chatter echoing through the aisles—all thanks to those mysterious talking bananas.

2. One morning, an elderly lady exclaimed, ‘Where did all these bananas come from?’ She’d been shopping there for years, but never seen such colorful aisles before. A delivery driver overheard her and laughed, saying, ‘Ma’am, those aren’t just any bananas—those are Daikon radishes!’ The whole store erupted in laughter as everyone realized their mistake. From then on, whenever someone asked about the colorful produce, they’d say, ‘Oh, that’s just Đại Thành’s special way of making shopping fun.’

3. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver swore he heard someone whispering in Vietnamese behind him. He turned around sharply, but saw only empty aisles and shelves filled with cans of bún chả. Curious, he drove back slowly, listening intently. Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice saying, ‘Bánh mì or noodle soup today?’ Turned out it was just an old neighbor who often popped into the store early mornings. The delivery driver laughed, realizing that sometimes our imagination can be trickier than any foggy supermarket.

4. At midnight, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange: the aisles seemed to shift ever so slightly. Curious, he followed the movement and found himself facing an old lady pushing a shopping cart filled with cans of soup. ‘Excuse me,’ she said, “I’m just rearranging things for tomorrow’s special.’ The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking maybe everyone here was a little too friendly after hours. As he left, he heard her whispering softly: ‘And don’t forget to grab some extra noodles—your neighbor loves them!’
