S & A Caribbean Market — Local services in Miramar

I heard about this place from a Trini friend of mine and decided to check it out on my day off to see if they carried the items I needed to make pholourie (a fried dough snack commonly eaten in the Caribbean).

Located along Pembroke Rd. in Miramar; S & A Caribbean Market is a small business, part market/restaurant, that carries various Caribbean items such as snacks, vitamins, beverages, grocery and baking items, seasonings, canned goods; and many more at very reasonable prices from Jamaica, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago, etc. There's also a section where you can get meat by the pound.

There was only one person running the market and he was very pleasant. When I told him about the items I was looking for, which was split pea flour, and tumeric powder, he was kind enough to show me where the items was located.

I didn't get the chance to venture through the restaurant because I had less than an hour before the business closed, but my Trini friend told me they make good roti so I got to come back to try some. I will also return to purchase other...

I had an unfortunate experience, came from Jacksonville eager to try a delicious roti, I’ve been there so many times! There was no one in sight, finally a very sour lady emerged, answering our questions with impatience, when I asked about the fillings, a swipe of her hand and a look that said “are you blind or stupid” made me leave the place immediately. After all, all stews looked very similar, I couldn’t tell what was what. She was far more interested in The TV than us, the only customers...

Roti- over the years, just as delicious, low salt, no pork, tasty, sugar cane sweetened natural drinks, more seat-in boots added, small inside, hard to find Caribbean products & vegetables on store next door which is accessible from the inside. The toilet is unisex and very small. If I were in a wheelchair I would never fit in there. Nice for the price, delicious Trinidadian fast foods....
