The Dateline Award is given each year to a local citizen, company or organization which has brought positive publicity to Fort Worth and Tarrant County during the previous calendar year. The winner this year is celebrity chef Tim Love – owner of Fort Worth’s The Lonesome Dove Western Bistro and the The Love Shack restaurant - and a victorious 2007 participant in the Food Network’s “Iron Chef America” program.
As the foremost pioneer of urban Western cuisine, Love wears a cowboy hat in place of a toque, and appoints nachos with kangaroo carpaccio and marries foie gras with chiles. A true Texan, the foundation of Love’s cuisine is, naturally, steak and wild game, and includes huge cuts of Texas steer, buffalo, antelope, red deer and wild boar, supplemented by lingonberries from Sweden, Manchego cheese from Spain, and Quandong sauce from Australia for global flair. In May 2007, Love appeared on the Food Network’s “Iron Chef America” in a victorious “Chile” battle against Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto. Love was also featured on the Food Network's "Challenge: Hawaiian Luau Beach BBQ.”
In July 2007, Love participated in the James Beard Foundation’s annual “Chefs & Champagne” tasting event at the Wolffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack, New York. Love appeared as a guest chef on Paula Deen’s, “Paula’s Party in October 2007, and in February 2008, Love was a guest chef at “Rachael Ray’s Burger Bash” at the 2008 Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival. Love capped off a busy 2007 by being named one of five “Lonestar Leaders” by KXAS NBC Dallas. Love was in the company of other fine Texans like Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson, Jason Witten of the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks Coach Avery Johnson, and first daughter Jenna Bush. The honor recognized the work Love has done on behalf of Spoons Across America, which provides food and nutrition education to children, families, and teachers through school- and community-based programs.
In addition to Love’s recent television appearances, he has been featured extensively in national publications such as Bon Appetit, Food & Wine, Conde Nast Traveler and The Wall Street Journal and regularly appears in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, The Dallas Morning News, and D magazine.
We believe Chef Tim Love is truly deserving of our Dateline Award! The award will be presented at the May meeting at 11:45 a.m. on TUESDAY, May 20, 2008 at Joe T. Garcia's, in "The Hut." Click here to register for the event.
