Without question, June is always a crazy, if not the busiest month at Pepper's Catering with graduation parties, grill parties and weddings abound.   When we sit back and think about everything that goes on here, we are always amazed that we got through it unscathed.  That's not to say that we didn't hit a few bumps along the way, but our successes definitely outweigh any bumps we may have encountered. 

Whether we're catering a wedding reception for 250 guests or an intimate dinner party for 12, every event requires a significant amount of time and effort to pull it off.  We're lucky to have a cohesive team at Pepper's Catering that believes in and stands behind our mission to provide gracious hospitality and delectable cuisine.

It starts with our sales team - the who-what-where-and-how gurus that shape your event and get the ball rolling.  Not only do they work closely with you from start to finish to create a memorable experience, but they also work with our chefs, event managers and operations staff to make sure that all the i's are dotted and t's are crossed.

Our creative chefs work to put the culinary pieces together.  They are responsible for getting the most fresh and flavorful gourmet foods to and from our kitchen and then to your table.  And if only it were that easy - handling special dietary requests, procuring specialty foods, executing on-site cooking methods and securing appropriate chef staffing also lie on the shoulders of the kitchen.   

And while the chefs are hard at work, our event managers are coordinating the finishing touches.  They worry about everything from the layout of your event, décor, and timing to the number of plates, spoons, forks and knifes needed.  They work in unison with our operations staff - counting, grouping, wrapping, packing and loading everything necessary for your event to go off without a hitch.   On the job, they're just as busy keeping the dedicated and hard-working wait staff busy and your needs fulfilled.

I certainly don't want to minimize the value of our operations staff either - they do more than just pack trucks.  They tend to the general needs of the building on a daily basis, keep the pots, pans and dishes clean and sparkling, feed the chickens, turn the compost, and tend the garden...just to name a few things.  They are a critical component to the everyday successes of Pepper's Catering.

So many details, so little time.  Honestly, I'm glad I just write the blog!   But I will say this to them - thank you.  Thank you for paying attention to the details and getting it right.  Thank you for making our clients happy.  

And more importantly thank YOU for choosing Pepper's Find Food Catering for your event...and for keeping us on our toes!
