PEOPLE ON POINT
CHEF • ENTREPRENEUR &
FASHION STYLIST & CEO OF:
THE BELLY CLINIC POWERHOUSE
LEON “Powerhouse” WHITE
The most successful chefs in America aren’t just chefs.
They’re brands, and valuable ones
at that. But becoming a bona fide
celebrity chef opens up many new
doors, as well as the opportunity to
rake in the big bucks.
N
OT many chefs can be found working
the line in their own kitchens
anymore; they’re far too busy thinking
up and launching new restaurants,
writing cookbooks, developing products of
various kinds, and, of course, appearing on TV.
The most successful chefs in America aren’t
just chefs — they’re entrepreneurs, and they’re
brands. Sometimes they’re virtually whole
industries.
Being Leon “Powerhouse” White isn’t just a job
or a hobby: It’s a way of life.
Hailing from beautiful sunny South Florida, to
be exact - a small city known as “Exit 36”, and
sharing the same home-town as Kodak Black -
Leon “Powerhouse” White is making his name
known throughout the Tri-Counties for his
culinary expertise.
Embarking on a culinary
journey hasn’t always been
farfetched. He recalls being
raised in a house-hold full of
cooks. “Cooking has always
been my thing.”
Leon is a native from
Pompano Beach, Florida.
He has had his trials and
tribulations to overcome as
he encountered a longer
tenure completing his
degree, losing loved ones,
being a full-time father, and

even run-ins with the Law.
Despite these obstacles, Leon continues to
aim towards greatness. Being referred to as a
“Powerhouse” is surely shy of all the attributes
Leon possesses.
Leon is a multi-talented Chef & Entrepreneur
who also has his foot in the fashion industry;
offering styling to those who prefer to wear
trend-setting & stylish clothing.
Leon also mentors numerous students at his
Alma mater, Blanche Ely High
School, in lieu of helping them
to develop their own passion
in Culinary, by offering them
classes.
Leon’s master piece, The
Belly Clinic offers a wide
range of delicious foods that
are rich in flavor and mind
blowing.
Leon’s dishes are all a la
carte - with the exception of
his Ready-To-Go: 2 for $25
Breakfast & Lunch Combos.
