Hot Date: Best Cellars Fundraiser Dinner at Fearing’s on Thursday, May 9.

With charity fundraising season in full swing, we’re continuing to profile exceptional events around town. Next up: Best Cellars Dinner, a food and wine soiree at Fearing’s at the Ritz-Carlton Dallas on Thursday, May 9.

Chefs Dean Fearing and Eric Dreyer will cook, a half-dozen Dallas sommeliers will pour and you will eat. And drink. (And, if there’s enough of those two, give.)

Proceeds benefit Promise for a Cure through the T.J. Martell Foundation, a national nonprofit organization founded by musicians that funds research for leukemia, cancer and AIDS at eleven US research hospitals, including Houston’s M.D. Anderson.

Somms include Andrew Hensley and Paul Botamer of Fearing’s, Aaron Benson of Dallas Country Club, Jeff Bachinskas of Sissy’s Southern Kitchen, Christina Chilcoat of Las Colinas Beverages and Jeff Bradley of The Wine Frog.

Tickets run $500 each, or you can snag a table for $5,000.

This looks to be a really fun event, too.
