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 island items.

This gem has organic local charm. Its tidy w/ a solid selection of West Indian (i.e. Guyana, Trini, Jamaican) finds. Halal meats, unique fresh produce, spices & seasoningsplus more. Its worth checking out the attached restaurant too. Love it!
