Using food as a tool for bringing people together will never not be a smart move because it is an essential thing for everyone. Even better is making sure the food is excellent and enjoyable for every race. Entrepreneur couple Deivone M. Tanksley Sr. and Jaci Tanksley understand these and have applied them to establish their food venture My Wife Didn’t Cook in New Britain, Connecticut.
The Tanksleys set out to build a business capable of bringing people together and giving them a sense of identity, belonging, and community. Their vision for My Wife Didn’t Cook is to provide a roof under which like-minded people can create a platform to push culture forward and conceive initiatives that provide job opportunities and inspire people to better their lives. My Wife Didn’t Cook Restaurant also provides community service to people who need food and water to survive.
While My Wife Didn’t Cook makes sure to serve delicious food, it’s more about improving people, the community it operates in, and the world at large. The restaurant has established itself as a breeding ground for multicultural values and movements.
“We hope to connect with people who still have hope that our kids will live in a better place years from now if we keep pushing as a whole. My Wife Didn’t Cook is all about love and making the world better,” Deivone said.
Deivone M. Tanksley Sr. has built his name as an influential figure in New Britain, Connecticut, over the years and is committed to building a legacy that will outlive him in the form of projects, impact, and businesses. He has an inspiring story of rising from a place of struggle and building himself into a figure worthy of emulation. Now, he’s building businesses to give his community a facelift and get as many people as possible inspired.
My Wife Didn’t Cook has attracted people from all over the United States and created initiatives for families to have fun. The restaurant’s interior also features an inspiring design which can be viewed on the restaurant’s website. The restaurant is Deivone’s way of contributing to economic development and job creation in the United States. He and Jaci were motivated to build the restaurant to deliver high-quality, freshly cooked food to the people of Connecticut, and so far, the restaurant has maintained a steady level of growth over the years.
As a family-owned restaurant, Deivone and Jaci Tanksley are focused on the future and creating an example for upcoming generations to follow. They’re leaving a blueprint that it is possible to build a profitable business that serves the community positively.
“Beyond business and rendering service, the most important thing to get from this is that the language of life is love and creativity, not hate and destruction. We all want what’s good for our kids and our loved ones, but no matter where you live or what color or race you are, every positive and creative act you do moves the world towards a better place. Unity is Key,” Deivone said.
