Chef David Brown & Chef Adam Belt
#HaveYouHerd: Today’s #FridayFeature is one that will leave you coming back for seconds! Chef David Brown and Chef Adam Belt’s adventures have led them to open their very own restaurant, House of Soul Cafe.
That’s right, let’s talk about adventure. Chef Brown and Chef Adam opened their very own southern soul food restaurant in the middle of the pandemic! Knowing that many would need the convenience and ease of ordering fast food takeout, they put together a simple menu of southern cuisine full of grandma's savor with a modern twist. The menu includes fried pork chops, fried chicken, fried catfish, and perch with southern staples like candied yams, greens, and mac and cheese.
When talking to both chefs, we found out some pretty exciting things about each of them. Chef Brown is a former rescue swimmer for the US Navy and Chef Adam is an airplane pilot for Allegiant airlines. Who would have guessed that?! Not us, that’s for sure. One of the most incredible adventures they have ever taken is a trip to Brazil, where they held snakes around their necks! That is a little too scary for us but still awesome to know.
A bit of advice both chefs have for us is to “Never give up on your dreams and goals. We didn't allow fear or opposition to stop us from pursuing our dreams. Hard work and hustle are the ingredients to success.” These are some great words to get us motivated! Thank you.
It’s safe to say that House of Soul Café is a real hit. The chef duo has already opened its second location! The first House of Soul Cafe is located at 4225 S East St, Indianapolis, IN 46227. The second House of Soul Cafe is located at 9802 North Michigan Rd. Carmel, IN, 46032.
Thank you, Chef Brown and Chef Adam, for showing us that following our dreams and the adventures that come along with them can lead to great success. Congratulations on being able to open your second restaurant in only two months of opening the first one!
