History - Frank's Karma Cafe began its life as the Deli at 203 in
November of 2002. It was founded by Pam Pietch and Carol Franzgrote,
two lifelong friends who saw a need for a place to get good, hearty
sandwiches and salads. The two women did a fantastic job of setting up
the place, choosing harmonizing colors and creating a homey and
welcoming atmosphere.
After a few years, Carol left for greener pastures, and in April
of 2006 Pam handed over the reins of the Deli at 203 to Cliff Mulnix
and Andrew Mansour, two young middle-aged guys who'd had their fill of
"real" jobs. Over the course of the first year, the guys added a
professional oven and grill in order to make daily homemade specials and
desserts. The specials range the gamut from Mediterranean cuisine
(highlighted on MEDITERRANEAN MONDAYS), to vegetarian specialties
(inspired by Ithaca, NY's famed Moosewood Restaurant), to "fancy" Julia Child-inspired French cuisine.
By their first anniversary at the place, the guys decided that a name change was in order. The Restaurant
was never a Deli, and it may not always remain at 203 S. Main St., so
in May of 2007, we were renamed FRANK'S KARMA CAFE, in honor of the
good karma brought about by a stray German Shepard puppy named Frank
