Meet the Chef

Jennifer Ditzion is the Owner & Executive Chef of August Catering & Events. Jennifer prides herself on cooking delicious, beautiful food and being adaptable and creative. She never loses sight of the fact that her clients’ satisfaction comes first.
 
“
August. Catering & Events is an ode to my family name, Daoust (translated to “of August” from French), as well as the birth of my first child in August 2015. My South African mother met and married my American father in Botswana when he was in the Peace Corps. My parents instilled a love of food, travel, and culture in me since birth. Now I can pass those passions along to my own family, my husband and children. August Catering represents the past, present, and future of my family. I hope it creates a legacy of special moments between families, colleagues, and friends and enriches people’s lives for many years to come.”

Our Philosophy

You know good food when you see it. But it takes more than just delicious food to execute a memorable event. Behind each bite, each dish, is something you can’t see—the intricate dance between the kitchen and the waitstaff to get the food to your guests without a hiccup. The dedication of every member of our staff to making the client and the client’s guests a top priority. The cumulative years of experience both in the kitchen and on the floor. The careful crafting of menus that complement the vision of each event. The operational excellence that enables us to remedy any issues before the client even perceives a misstep. And certainly not least, the love and passion we all put into our work. We hope all of these qualities come through for each and every client we serve.
