We're less than two weeks away from one of the biggest Dallas food events of the year: Iron Fork, which pairs unlimited food samples from dozens of Dallas' best restaurants with ample booze and a live cooking challenge that pits two Dallas chefs against one another in front of a live audience. This year's Iron Fork takes over Centennial Hall at Fair Park from 7-10 p.m. April 25.

VIP tickets (which get you into the event an hour early to beat the crowds) are selling out quickly, but whether you're going full VIP or just eating your heart out with general admission tickets, snag yours soon — ticket prices increase the day of the event.

Tickets to the event include unlimited food samples, wine/cocktail/beer sampling and plenty more goodies to keep you knee-deep in Dallas food and drink.

The final list of participating restaurants is out, and it's a good one:

Arepa, TX
Asian Mint
Avoca Coffee
Chennai Cafe
Cuban Dulceria International Bakery
Dallas Caramel Company
Dot's Hop House & Cocktail Courtyard
El Come Taco
