As ELV tweeted and Facebook’d last night, and hinted at yesterday, Restaurant Charlie officially closed last night, and David Burke and eBrands are no longer associated with each other — effectively closing David Burke in the Venetian.

For lovers of good food in good restaurants, we at ELV are sad (as we are for the staffs of these places).

For yet another ignominious defeat of Charlie Notter, we are saddened not at all.
