Gas station grub is having a bit of a moment: this spring, a new burger joint called Smacking Burger opened inside a Mobil Station at 51-63 Eighth Avenue in the West Village. And now Ali Zaman and the team from Little Flower Cafe has just opened a takeout concept inside of the BP petrol station at the Myrtle-Wyckoff intersection in Bushwick, slinging New York classics like chopped cheese, chicken over rice and more.

Little Grenjai first got on our radar with its Thai and American mash-up, the Krapow Smash Burger—a gushed-about item from their summer pop-up days. The smash burger is still one of its most popular bites, so much so that the phrase, “Burger is only available for lunch” is stamped all over its website. And it is no surprise why. Here, the burger is seasoned with chili, basil, and oyster sauce before it's smashed and dressed with a lemongrass and bird’s eye chili giardiniera. One bite, and we were sold. But something tells us that its upcoming collaboration with a local Detrioit-style eatery will have us hooked, too.
