Charcut’s New Concept ‘CHARPOP’ set to have its premiere pop in the new year.
You know what they say…out with the ‘cut‘ and in with the ‘pop‘. This week, the owners of top Calgary restaurant, Charcut, announced their new culinary endeavor entitled ‘Charpop‘.
This three day dining experience is a collaborative effort between Toronto chef Grant van Gameren (pictured below, I stole his twitter avatar, formerly of Toronto’s The Black Hoof), everyone’s favourite baker Aviv Fried, and, of course John Jackson and Connie Desousa.
This pop-up concept is new to Calgary and I’m happy it’s finally here! As written in their press release, ‘Culinary pop culture gives new meaning to short ordercooking. A truly exclusive, limited-window dining experience is in the works.’
so I’m sure in the coming months we will some more places following in their footsteps and…well…popping up too!
Although the location is still to be determinded, you can safely mark down these dates in your calendar: January 15th, 16th and 17th. The ‘restaurant’ will open at 7PM with a set menu (I believe, but don’t quote me on that) and tickets will be available on a first come, first serve basis.
Hey, who knows, you might even catch me moonlighting as a host on one of the evenings…we’ll just have to wait and see…
Thinking of all the individual successes/accomplishments of partners involved, and if the whole is, in fact, greater than the sum of its parts, then folks, we’re in for one hell of a meal!
Follow Charcut or Charpop (@YYC_CHARPOP) for updates, as well as check out www.charpop.com for more information and tickets (when they become available, though, is anyone’s guess. How mysterious!)

I can’t wait for this to pop up. Cool idea.
Seems a bit hard to have repeat business though doesn’t it?
Ha. I guess so…
