Like a man showing off his brand-new, tricked-out whip, Kevin Adams’ face lights up like the candles on a birthday cake when he boasts of the Southern menu at his restaurant, Little House on Clinton.

“Our waffles are homemade with a special recipe. You can’t get this anywhere,” he excitedly shares. “[We have] some of the best fried chicken located here in Brooklyn.”

When you enter Little House on Clinton, you feel transported to the open expanse of South Carolina, which is where Adams’ mother, Easter Runette Adams, and her delicious recipes originated. “She is the headliner,” Adams declares.

The olfactory receptors inside your nose are also greeted by intoxicating aromas that snake out of the kitchen, hug you like you’re old friends, and beckon you to take a seat and imbibe on chicken and waffles, ice cream and waffles, all-day breakfast, and, yes, turkey bacon. But swine lovers get to indulge their palates, as well.

We also do pork,” Adams quickly says, “because some of our people love pork.” You have to love that Adams delivers, as well. Furthermore, he also delivers dreams to kids in the community, so be on the look out for a menu of social activities from Adams in the Brooklyn area.

“We [should] have these young kids express their talent, because we really don’t have an avenue for that. Some of the teens don’t even know each other. And that will be a great forum for them to introduce themselves,” he says. “And instead of promoting this gang stuff that we have, promote some of the positive things we have in the community.” -terry shropshire
