Rosedale loses Le Petit Castor

Le Petit Castor, a midtown restaurant that was half pub, half club, quietly closed last weekend. Open since 2008, the one-time hot spot, best known for its potent Pink Panther cocktails, was a place for Rosedalians to cut loose after dinner, when the tables were cleared to make room for dancing. Calls to the bar went unanswered and unreturned, but owner Luke McCann announced via Instagram that he has sold the business. Meanwhile, the precocious beavers on Le Petit Castor’s cutesy Flash-driven website continue to canoe and skydive like nothing’s up.
