Founded in 1991, Cafe Milano and Washington Life decided to celebrate together at the Prospect Street restaurant Dec. 5 — with Washington and Georgetown glitterati and international guests. Most of the attendees had, in fact, appeared in the pages of the society magazine and most had, in fact, dined at the Italian favorite many times. At the party, it looked like the pages of Washington Life had come alive in Cafe Milano. The restaurant has hosted some very high-profile visitors, such as President Barack Obama, who sent a letter of congratulations to restaurant owner Franco Nuschese. One partygoer said, “It was the most Washington Washington party I’ve been to all year.”
