B & M Market has been feeding Little River since 1980, its blue-and-red storefront hand-painted with the names of what's inside: jerk chicken, oxtail stew, and a rotating lineup of rotis. It sits on a busy stretch of 79th Street, the kind of spot people hear about from a friend or catch a glimpse of on TV before they ever walk in.
The format is counter-service bodega, not sit-down restaurant, and the menu stays focused on West Indian staples rather than chasing trends. It's built a loyal following over four decades without changing much about how it looks or what it serves.
