‘MAKEOVER’ MAMA COOKS — Above, Delores Powell, owner of Mama’s
Kitchen at 209 Massachusetts
Ave., isn’t afraid to grill outside in the winter snow as she prepares her
popular jerk chicken for a recent Sunday rush. At right, she steams the
cabbage to accompany her Caribbean cuisine inside the more comfortable confines
of her new kitchen. Powell and her family appeared on “Extreme Makeover: Home
Edition” in January 2010. With the grand opening of Mama’s Kitchen on Feb. 24,
Powell’s dream of opening a Jamaican restaurant was realized directly across
the street from her new home. By Brielynn Bell and Margot Harris
