Port Sydney's Beau Ideal no more?

[Bob Catt]

We visited relatives in Port Sydney last weekend, and learned that one of Muskoka's best gourmet restaurants, Beau Ideal has closed. It seems the owner-chef has decided to make a career move into other fields. This was sorry news, because we've had many delightful meals there as a family. The food and the setting aren't usually found in a small community like Port Sydney. If anyone knows more, please post it?

Sadly it's true.....we enjoyed the trip to Port a couple of times a season and it was a treat. Apparently the location is to be a cafe/ice cream place, but not sure if that has materialized.
