Best Blog – Okay, I should be self-serving and pick mine… but come on, it is definitely Houston MetBlogs! (Wow, now I sound self-serving and a suck-up) haha

Best Community Theatre – Theatre Southwest (This group of folks doesn’t have the best location and certainly do not have the largest budget, but they PUT OUT when its showtime!)

Best Movie Theatre – Landmark River Oaks (I think the Houston Press and I agreed on this one. The atmosphere is just hip enough without being so hip is sucks. And come on, the only theatre in town that competes with it for selection is the Landmark Greenway Plaza)

Best Photographer – Genesis Photographers (David Postma is a Houston institution and has photographed everything from Presidents to newborns. They provide excellent service and just about any party worth attending has someone from Genesis clicking away.)

Best Dog Park – Millie Bush Bark Park (This doggie wonderland is without comparison. It was voted the #1 dog park in the COUNTRY!! Fun place to take your furry friend.)

There you go… a few off-the-wall bests.
