After 14 years, Nigel and Melanie Tabb have served their last customers at their Portreath restaurant. The couple have sold the premises, which will now become a Chinese restaurant, and are moving to Truro.
"After so many years here, we wanted to take on a fresh challenge," said Nigel, who is one of Cornwall's top chefs.
"We will be really sorry to leave. We wouldn't be where we are now, without Portreath. It has been really good to us."
Their restaurant has been rated as one of the best in the county but Tabb's will be reborn in Truro later in the summer.
They have bought the Royal Standard pub in Kenwyn Street, which has been closed and boarded up for several months.
After a major refurbishment, it will reopen as Tabb's bar and restaurant in August.
Nigel said: "We will be doing similar sorts of meals to what we have been doing at Portreath but we will also be open for lunches."
