Charlie's Burgers is a series of private dining events originated in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 2009[1] operated by Franco Stalteri.[2][3][4][5][6] In 2010, it was ranked by Food and Wine Magazine as one of the top three "word of mouth" supper clubs.[7] Each dinner event is hosted by a different high-profile chef and is held in a different location, with the location being secret until the last minute.[7][8][9] In January 2010 it held a dinner event featuring insects which charged guests $155.[9][10][11] In July 2010 it expanded beyond Toronto to offer events in London and Paris.[1]
