#Triggameals: From Twitter to Ziggy's
#TriggaMeals has be a Twitter secret
for the BGSU student community for almost 2 years, but this April the Bowling
Green Community finally got let into the secret when #TriggaMeals found his new
home inside of Ziggy’s on Wooster Street.
DeAnte Shivers, the owner and brains
behind #TriggaMeals started his Twitter run restaurant out of his apartment
with the last $47 he had and instantly was a success. While interviewing
DeAnte, I was not only able to get an insight on how the young BGSU Alum was
able to build such a successful business on Twitter, but how #TriggaMeals has
given him the opportunity to help his community of Detroit. DeAnte has so many
plans for future of #TriggaMeals, one being the current goal of turning
#TriggaMeals into a known name on all Ohio and Michigan college campuses, which
will start his college food tour, which is currently in the works. DeAnte is not
only a chef but a humble community activist, he has used his talent and the
lessons he learned from his late mother to give back to his community from
creating his own mentoring program for young BGSU men and feeding the homeless
of Detroit. One of DeAntes current plans for this fall is to donate school
supplies and book bags to under privileged children in the Detroit area and to
donate and work with women & children centers in honor of his mother. To
