And she's loving it. "When we took over the restaurant, (the newly- christened King Street Bar And Grill), in May," says Pat with a grin, "we didn't know anything about running a business. We didn't know what to order or how much to order. We were in over our heads right from the start." Originally from Toronto, where she had a career making making up famous TV faces, Pat has been a resident of Bowmanville Bowmanville for the last 15 years. "I worked . on The Journal, The National and Mr. Dressup." Pat confided as we talked recently in her office across the street from the restaurant. "I did Barbara Barbara Frumm's makeup." she answers when pressed for names. It's a far cry from powdering powdering T.Ws famous noses to shredding cheese, waiting tables, cleaning the facilities and slinging pizza but Pat is more than happy with the move. "We waited to start our family and since Mike is from Bowmanville we decided decided to settle here and raise our family. I enjoy the com fort of knowing that if the school calls they can reach meat anytime/ Pat and Mike have two sons, Craig 11 and Lee 4. When the boys became more independent, Pat felt she needed something more in her life besides being a fulltime fulltime wife and mother. "I went to work as a business manager for Cowan Pontiac Buick for some time. Then, one day, Brian, (Brian Any- an, also a partner in the restaurant), restaurant), Mike and I started kidding around about owning owning our own business. Then tT-T- ... this opportunity came up, i « ~ ' e ][ £ A BETTER DEAL • 1st. 2nd ana 3rd Mortgages Open, privileges L Vi "Same day service liflEMBA-ltit i. CALL NOW FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION HOURS: 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and here we are." Pat tells me as she makes tea and serves it in her best professional professional manner. The restaurant itself was in need of renovations so they called on a few friends, who just happened to be professional professional set designers, and turned them loose. "They did a very professional job. They looked on it as just another another set and we were open in a week. " Pat had to overcome stage fright on opening night. "I was standing in the back with my palms, sweating. sweating. I was scared to death when I realized that I was going to have to walk over to those customers and ask for their orders." Pat laughs, as she remembers her!, opening night jitters. "And then I had no idea how to, train staff, so I ended up doing everything myself." Now the staffing problems problems have been overcome and Pat admits to having "two days off in a row recently." recently." They are the first two she's had in three months. The photographs adorn ing the walls were taken by Mike and they have had requests requests for prints which have made Mike very happy. "He was looking for a venue for his photos, Pat says "now he has it." They can't say enough good things about the people of Bowmanville, especially their business neighbours. "They have been just great," Pat enthuses. "They have helped us in every way they can. I really want to say thank you to them." Pat and partners have accomplished accomplished the impossible in three short months and have no intentions of letting down the pace now. They are planning some great promotional promotional entertainment for their eating establishment. On December 15 & 16 the "Mud' Sharks and Dorsal Pin" a pick-up band of studio studio musicians will be performing performing at the King Street Bar and Grill once again to the delight of all who caught them last time. Petite, red-headed Pat with the laughing eyes and determined soul has taken over the running of the restaurant restaurant and is performing her tasks admirably. Under her capable guidance and her lively sense of humour, she will maintain a steady course for success in her third chosen career in life. Success is in the day-to- day overcoming of the inevitable inevitable things that arise to make her life difficult. "I no longer have to ask Brian to act as fill-in cook," she reports reports with a smile. "So things must be getting better." better." Thank You!
