Frank's Pasta and Grill
426 king st east K9A 1M3 Cobourg, ON, Canada

Now that I’ve had a few days to settle and reflect so that I could gather my thoughts I’d like to say thank you to Sawkat Ali (Pops), Tab (Ma) and to Sabir, to whom became my brother almost over night. I stepped in the door for the first time one Friday night and was offered a job shortly after not knowing that it would change my life. In the almost 7 years I was with Frank’s I became part of their family. Family, it seems like a funny word to use when speaking about a resta...urant and a bar, but if you spent any amount of time around the Frank’s establishment then it became evident that the Ali family not only welcomed you into their building but into their family without prejudice and with open arms. Frank’s success was not only built upon Northumberland’s best wings awards or their cold beers and cocktails, but almost mainly on how you were greeted and treated by their staff on a day, an evening or a night out... And lets be honest, some days we all spent open to close there cause it felt like being at home! In my time with Frank’s I’ve met many people and reconnected with many others. Frank’s has put me into a position where I may continue on from here with many great relationships. Before I started with Frank’s I was a man with a set of skills I hadn’t realized, Sabir helped bring a certain social status that I had carried with my name to the forefront. It is because of him and Frank’s that I started using this and my gift of written words to my advantage, something I have turned into my own venture and now take with me into this next chapter of my life, and for this I’m forever thankful for how they’ve helped me grow as a person. It’s sad knowing that we will no longer walk back through that steel framed glass door and greet each other with a smile, a hug and a compliment but I take solace in knowing that no matter which path life takes each and everyone of us that once we see each other every time it will be as it once was, with a big smile and enjoyment of running into your family member. Let me also say this, inside those wooden walls still lives on many past family members, and if those walls could talk! As much as we will all miss being inside that building I also know that building and community will miss us all as well! So as I say farewell to each and every one of my staff member family, as well as the customers that became a part of mine and our family, I’d like to truly say thank you and that us, and I, wish everyone the best from here on out and I cannot wait to run into all of you again as we make more memories together. With love, and all the best of luck D.J. Smith!
