Matt Farrer, a  much-loved figure in the Seattle restaurant scene and chef at Restaurant Zoe, is  facing a difficult battle with cancer. Farrer is revered by many not only for his cooking skill but also for his infectious enthusiasm and positive energy.

The all-inclusive dinner also includes a wine flight designed by Canlis sommeliers Nelson Daquip and Phillip Dunn.

In addition to the dinner, there will be a public after-party at 1927 Events from 9pm-2am, with a $20 entrance donation.
