Best of Washington 2009

It’s that time of year again – time for the Verizon Wireless Best of Washington!

For the past 30 years, Washingtonian Magazine has invited readers to vote for the best people, places, and services in the area. Readers rate everything from pizza parlors, pot stickers, and cocktails to Congress members. Washingtonian editors weigh in too with their picks of the best Washington has to offer.At the Verizon Wireless Best of Washington Party, Washingtonian invites the winners to set up booths and serve up their best. In 2008 more than 1,200 guests, celebrities, restaurateurs, and Leukemia & Lymphoma Society supporters filled the National Building Museum to sample, sip, and socialize.

Both Georgetown Cupcake and Baked & Wired will be serving up their sweets at the annual party.
