<br />
From Saint Germain Catering&apos;s An American Wedding menu, soon-to-be brides and grooms can choose from passed and displayed hors d&apos;oeuvres.

Some items may vary depending on the time of year, as the company strives to include fresh items that coincide with the current season whenever possible. Many desserts are available as well, including traditional cakes, cupcakes and other sweet, decadent choices.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Saint Germain Catering of Northern Virginia wants companies to know they can boost morale with gourmet breakfast or lunch items.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 12/12/2017 --  A recent survey from 2015 found that only one in five Americans set aside time during the workday to step away from their job responsibilities for a midday meal. In fact, more than 50 percent of American workers eat lunch at their desks to maintain their productivity. While this strategy may seem good for business on the surface, in the long term, creativity takes a hit, and productivity can ultimately suffer. Having employees eating at their desks also creates missed opportunities for important collaboration, socializing and brainstorming among team members within the company.<br />
<br />
Saint Germain <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Catering of Northern Virginia" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Catering of Northern Virginia</a> offers a solution to the solo lunch problem.

Saint Germain&apos;s corporate catering choices are extensive, giving managers the opportunity to tailor food choices to the feel of a meeting or event. They can keep employees well-fed at a late business meeting, offer hospitality when hosting clients from out of town or provide a delicious mix of finger foods at gatherings or holiday parties.<br />
<br />
Saint Germain Catering&apos;s corporate menu goes beyond lunch — it offers numerous breakfast options for those early meetings. Choices include classic egg-based dishes, French toast, pancakes and deep-dish baked quiche. Lighter fare includes bagels and lox, mini pastries, muffins, scones and individual yogurts.<br />
<br />
Full-size salads, wraps and sandwiches highlight Saint Germain&apos;s lunch selection, with a variety of hot chicken, steak, BBQ and seafood entrees mixed in for sit-down social events. The professional chefs at Saint Germain are experienced with accommodating dietary restrictions and individual tastes to ensure all employees and invited guests are satisfied.<br />
<br />

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Participates in Operation Homefront</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">The Northern Virginia catering company is celebrating the season of giving by donating $10,000 towards holiday meals for military families.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/14/2017 --  Saint Germain <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Catering of Northern Virginia" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">Catering of Northern Virginia</a> is getting into the giving spirit of the season by helping local military families during the holidays through <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Operation Homefront" href="http://www.operationhomefront.org/">Operation Homefront</a>. The national nonprofit organization provides residential, financial and meal services to military families, so they can thrive and succeed in the communities they have worked so hard to protect while overseas.<br />
<br />
To help alleviate the financial expenses that the holidays typically bring, Operation Homefront&apos;s Holiday Meals for the Military collects cash and food donations from local businesses and families and uses the contributions to provide healthy fixings for a traditional holiday meal for junior enlisted military families, hopefully making their season a bit brighter.<br />
<br />
Operation Homefront offers several other services for members of the military and their families, including housing assistance, general financial help for things such as utilities and car repairs, baby shower celebrations and back-to-school supplies and clothing assistance for children.<br />
<br />
<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Mina Ebrahimi" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/about/team">Mina Ebrahimi</a>, the owner of Saint Germain Catering, sees the event as a way to give back to the community and make a small contribution of appreciation for the endless sacrifices the members of the United States military make for our freedoms. Saint Germain is providing a generous $10,000 donation, which will go towards providing food for military families to prepare holiday meals they might otherwise not be able to afford easily.<br />
<br />
Saint Germain is a full-scale <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="catering company" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">catering company</a> serving the DC Metro area, including Maryland and the Northern Virginia communities. It offers a plethora of delicious choices from various menus, including breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert, for catering special events and celebrations with family and friends.<br />
<br />
Holiday Meals for the Military continues to be one of Operation Homefront&apos;s most successful programs, as evidenced by numbers from the Holiday Meals for the Military 2016 effort, which provided 11,000 families with everything they needed for a memorable holiday meal to share with extended family members. Since beginning the holiday charity program in 2008, it has served over 175,000 military children and 57,000 total family meals.<br />
<br />
Operation Homefront also runs a Holiday Toy Drive during the holiday season to help hundreds of military kids have a memorable holiday. It distributes toys and gift cards to military families during the season and accepts donations from the surrounding community and businesses.<br />
<br />
Together, Operation Homefront and Saint Germain Catering are working together to make sure military families have a pleasant and enjoyable holiday.<br />

      <title>Managers and Business Owners Can Combat Morning Fatigue with Breakfast Foods from Saint Germain Catering</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Saint Germain Catering offers multiple breakfast items to boost office morale and kickstart a team’s day.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 10/26/2017 --  A 2015 study from SSI, a survey sampling and data collection company, found that out of 10,000 people, more than 53 percent of them skipped breakfast at least once a week. Many individuals cited a lack of hunger during the early morning as one reason, while others stated they simply don&apos;t have the time. The consequences of skipping the most important meal of the day are numerous, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Not eating breakfast in the morning can contribute to obesity problems, menstrual irregularities in women, lowered cognitive function, a decreased ability to problem-solve and a general lack of energy.<br />
<br />
This is why businesses in the Northern Virginia area should think carefully about feeding their employees a nutritious breakfast in the morning. Not only can it help spark creativity during meetings, but many employees may feel more productive, motivated and energetic as a result. <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Saint Germain Catering</a> offers several delectable options for boosting office morale and jump-starting another busy day at the office.<br />
<br />
Customers can choose from several cold breakfast options, including bagels and lox, fruit salad, yogurt parfait cups with fruit and granola, and numerous pastries, croissants and scones. Breakfast breads, including blackberry or lemon curd Danish, apple and cranberry nut bread or blueberry scones are great choices for fueling creative ideas.<br />
<br />
Several egg-based dishes are the cornerstones of Saint Germain&apos;s hot breakfast menu. Businesses can choose breakfast burritos stuffed with cheese and sauteed vegetables or go classic with homemade buttermilk biscuits and sausage gravy. Sides of bacon and potatoes can be added to complete most meals. Breakfast sandwiches are excellent options for on-the-go eating, with egg, cheese and meat stacked on an English muffin, bagel or croissant. Fresh-squeezed orange juice or freshly brewed coffee are add-ons that keep employees awake and alert throughout the morning grind.<br />
<br />
The Executive Brunch menu choice lets customers choose from two of the following four entrees: bananas Foster French toast casserole; egg casserole with mushroom, leek, tomato and gruyere cheese; smoked bacon, egg, brie cheese and caramelized onion scramble; or French toast casserole with Saint Germain&apos;s special pecan streusel.<br />
<br />
Eating a regular, balanced breakfast contributes to a more productive day and healthier lifestyle. When customers order catered breakfasts for their office from Saint Germain <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Catering</a>, they can be more productive throughout their busy day.<br />

      <title>Mina Ebrahimi from the Saint Germain Catering Company Holds October Cupcake Fundraiser to Benefit Penn Vet</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Saint Germain Catering of Virginia is donating proceeds from cupcake sales to benefit UPenn’s Veterinary School throughout the month of October says Mina Ebrahimi</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/29/2017 --  Saint Germain Catering&apos;s owner <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Mina Ebrahimi" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEvQr0GQI5c">Mina Ebrahimi</a> is inspired everyday by her dogs. She owns four Labrador retrievers — Suzy, Barney, Jack and Vinny. When she&apos;s not running her highly successful hospitality and catering business, Ebrahimi loves spending time with her dogs whenever she gets the chance. Her loyal four-legged friends are always there for ongoing support and love after long days running her catering company.<br />
<br />
In 2003, Ebrahimi began an ongoing relationship with the University of Pennsylvania&apos;s Veterinary School, also known as Penn Vet, when one of her Labrador retrievers, Jack, required a cutting-edge surgery that could only be completed at their advanced medical facilities. It was there at Penn Vet that Mina met Karen Sorenmo, a veterinarian and chief of oncology at Penn Vet&apos;s Ryan Hospital. She is the founder of the Penn Vet Shelter Canine Mammary Tumor Program, an initiative that helps shelter dogs suffering from mammary tumors receive the urgent medical attention they need to stay alive. This specialized program covers the cost of the surgery and required follow-up care to help encourage adoption of these dogs.<br />
<br />
When Ebrahimi started in the hospitality business 35 years ago, she attributed her original success to the sale of delectable pastries and cupcakes. It&apos;s for this reason and in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, that Saint Germain Catering is donating 100 percent of the proceeds generated from sales of their delicious cupcakes to the veterinary program at UPenn, with a target fundraising goal of $10,000.<br />
<br />
As a locally-owned business, <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Saint Germain Catering</a> feels a certain responsibility to give back to the community, and because Ebrahimi&apos;s furry companions have been such a positive influence in her life, she believes everyone who has pets that receive care from Penn Vet will benefit from their important research work.<br />
<br />
Customers can choose from Saint Germain&apos;s selection of full-size cupcakes, offered in flavors of coconut chocolate, peanut butter, French vanilla and classic chocolate. Mini cupcakes are available as well. These handheld desserts are an excellent choice for raising employee morale and make a perfect addition to fall harvest festivals or Halloween parties.<br />
<br />
The fundraiser is running for the entire month of October. Customers can <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="order cupcakes" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/menu/cakes-cupcakes-weddings-parties-birthdays/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">order cupcakes</a> by the dozen directly from Saint Germain&apos;s website and arrange for delivery of their orders.</p><p>For more information on this press release visit: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm">http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</a></p></div><h2>Media Relations Contact</h2><p>Mina Ebrahimi<br />Saint Germain Catering<br />Telephone: 703-506-9396<br />Email: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/contact/872000">Click to Email Mina Ebrahimi</a><br />Web: <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/</a><br /></div><div><p><img src="https://cts.releasewire.com/v/?sid=872000&amp;s=f&amp;v=f" width="1" height="1" alt=""><span></span></p></div>]]></description>

      <title>Northern Virginia Catering Company Offers Savory Menu Options for Tailgating Events</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Football season is in full swing — let Saint Germain Catering of Northern Virginia take care of the food for your next tailgating party.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/19/2017 --  The NFL season began a few weeks ago on September 7, and football fans everywhere are excited for the start of yet another exciting season. Many hungry fans are preparing <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="to cater tailgating parties" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/menu/sgc-tailgate-cookout/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">to cater tailgating parties</a> to host with friends and family in the coming months.<br />
<br />
The first known occurrence of tailgating began in 1861, when people from Washington, DC, traveled out to witness the First Battle of Bull Run in Prince William County, Virginia. Attendees cheered on their "team" from a distance while enjoying food and beverages. A few years later, in 1866, the chuck wagon was invented in Texas as a way to feed traveling cowboys, and it resembles what modern tailgaters do today — grill food and hang out in a stadium parking lot before a sporting event, usually football.<br />
<br />
While tailgating has evolved significantly since then, many people throw tailgating parties even if they&apos;re not attending the event. Instead, they have it at their home in the backyard, so people can enjoy food and drink before the game as the anticipation builds. Guests typically continue feasting on treats and appetizers as they cheer on their team to victory.<br />
<br />
<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Saint Germain Catering</a> of Northern Virginia has announced a special menu featuring hearty meats and grilled items designed specifically for tailgating events. When customers take advantage of Saint Germain&apos;s choices, they can focus on throwing a great party instead of worrying about food prep.<br />
<br />
The Virginian "Farm to Tailgate" option is highlighted by local, pasture-raised meats and fresh grilled vegetables.

      <title>Mina Ebrahimi, Owner of a Northern Virginia Catering Company Makes Delicious Use of Summer Produce</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">August is a peak season for summer harvesting, and Mina Ebrahimi & Saint Germain Catering want locals to know: it's time to cook with fresh produce and herbs.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 08/25/2017 --  According to <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Mina Ebrahimi" href="http://blog.saintgermaincatering.com/end-of-summer-buys-the-seasonal-produce-catering-companies-recommend/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Mina Ebrahimi</a>, Mid-August is the peak time for many farmers, homeowners and local businesses to harvest their fresh produce offerings. Tomatoes, corn-on-the-cob and fresh herbs should all be ready for picking now and in the coming weeks, say expert gardeners and farmers. Some produce, such as summer squash, has likely been available for most cooks for months and is still in season.<br />
<br />
Many recipes using freshly harvested produce can be created with simple methods that don&apos;t require a lot of preparation or cooking. Red ripe tomatoes can be roughly chopped and marinated in heaps of oil, sherry vinegar, basil, garlic and red pepper flakes, which can then be tossed with pasta or served with freshly steamed mussels. New spices or herbs can also be substituted to create new flavors for different dishes.<br />
<br />
The classic summer vegetable, corn on the cob, can be eaten in the traditional way with butter, salt and two steady hands, or the kernels can be scraped off and added to salads. When it&apos;s ground, it can be used for fluffy corn muffins or cornbread. Grilling corn on the cob results in an unexpected smoky flavor, making it a favorite for weekend backyard barbecues. Also a great choice for outdoor cooking is summer squash, especially when sliced thin, tossed with olive oil and lemon, and then sprinkled with salt and a bit of Parmesan cheese. <br />
<br />
Many fresh herbs are in season this time of year, and they help bring out surprising and unexpected flavors when they&apos;re prepared with other foods. Whether they&apos;re grown in a backyard or picked up from the farmer&apos;s market, fresh herbs such as parsley, basil, chives, cilantro and tarragon make excellent additions to everything from sauces to salad dressings.<br />
<br />

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Celebrates Family Fun Month</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Spend quality time with family before the hustle and bustle of fall arrives. Catering can reduce your planning stress.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 07/31/2017 --  August is Family Fun Month, making it a great opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends before the summer ends. <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Saint Germain Catering</a> can help families prepare for a special event or casual get-together so they can concentrate on making memories instead of worrying about the food and cooking.<br />
<br />
Host a picnic with immediate or extended family, and let Saint Germain <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Catering" href="https://www.saintgermaincatering.com/?utm_campaign=pr-rw&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=press-release">Catering</a> take care of the food. Family members can build sandwiches with Saint Germain&apos;s fresh meat and cheese selection included in its carving board package. Sliced roast beef, roasted turkey, Cajun chicken breast and all the assorted fixings make a great choice for an afternoon picnic. A wide variety of salads is featured on the menu as well, with fresh seasonal fruit such as watermelon and strawberries, along with locally grown vegetables. Other offerings include seasonal sandwiches and wraps.<br />
<br />
For a family reunion or neighborhood barbecue, individuals can browse through Saint Germain&apos;s Chesapeake Bay Cookout specialties, which feature boiled blue crab and endless sides. Or they can opt for more traditional barbecue fare from the Barbecue &amp; Grill Specials menu, which includes hot dogs, grilled bratwurst, sliders, a build-your-own burger station and slow-roasted pork.<br />
<br />
Another great way to celebrate Family Fun Month is by having Sunday brunch with immediate family or visiting guests. Saint Germain&apos;s hot and cold brunch menu offers egg casseroles, fluffy French toast, frittatas, and bagels and lox. Supplement main dishes with seasonal fresh fruit, creamy parfaits and homemade coffee cake.<br />
<br />
Families planning a movie night won&apos;t have to worry about snacks and munchies with Saint Germain&apos;s delicious offerings. Set up a projector to shine on a large empty wall, or take the viewing outside with a portable screen. Saint Germain offers finger foods for the whole family so parents and kids can enjoy the special feature. A nacho bar features tricolored tortilla chips, warm cheese and fresh toppings, while those who have a sweet tooth will appreciate several chocolate-based desserts, including brownie bars, chocolate-dipped strawberries and cannolis. Don&apos;t forget the gourmet popcorn bowl either. There&apos;s plenty to go around when the whole family gathers together for a Family Fun Month celebration.<br />

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Cupcakes Go to the Dogs for the Month of October</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">October Breast Cancer Awareness Month spurs fundraiser</p><p>Tysons, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 10/04/2016 --  If you ask Mina Ebrahimi what inspires her in life, you need only to go to her Facebook page to see it plastered with images of dogs. Lots of dogs – including her Labrador Retrievers: Suzy, Barney, Jack and Vinny.  These dogs are not only her pets, but have solidified a relationship with the University of Pennsylvania&apos;s School of Veterinary Medicine and during the month of October she will raise funds selling her popular cupcakes with 100% of the profit going to <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="UPennVet" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">UPennVet</a>. <br />
<br />
Aside from running a very successful, woman-owned business, Saint Germain Catering Company, where she puts in 16 hour days, managing all aspects of catering for both corporate and social events, she spends the rest of her time and energy on her beloved paw babies who she credits with saving her sanity. <br />
<br />
Mina&apos;s relationship with The University of Pennsylvania&apos;s School of Veterinary Medicine, known as Penn Vet, began in 2003 when Jack had to undergo an innovative veterinary surgical procedure only available at Penn Vet. Having worked with their team of extraordinary and incredibly caring veterinarians for many years, Mina became acquainted with Karin Sorenmo DVM, DACVIM, chief of medical oncology at Penn Vet&apos;s Ryan Hospital, who founded and led the Penn Vet Shelter Canine Mammary Tumor Program which provides care to shelter dogs with mammary tumors that are homeless and don&apos;t have access to the care they need to survive. The Canine Mammary Tumor Program covers the costs of surgery and follow-up care and helps promote adoption of these dogs.  <br />
<br />
"Mammary tumors in dogs and breast cancer in women have many similarities, both in terms of risk factors and biology. Many of the dogs have multiple tumors, often in different stages of malignant transformation, and therefore provide a unique opportunity to study cancer progression. "We believe that by studying dogs with mammary tumors, we can improve our understanding of how cancer develops, and through this understanding, find better and more efficient drugs to treat and prevent cancer," explains Dr. Sorenmo."<br />
<br />
As an acknowledgement of the dedication by Dr. Sorenmo and her team, Mina will bring her love of her dogs and Penn Vet together, raising funds and awareness for Breast Cancer research and the Penn Vet Shelter Mammary Tumor Program by selling her ever popular cupcakes during the month of October. <br />
<br />
Because October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, and Ebrahimi&apos;s success in the food business started 35 years ago with pastries and cupcakes, she has a special offer of a dozen cupcakes, either vanilla or chocolate, with buttercream frosting costing $36.99 with 100% of the profit going to UPENN. This year she intends to raise $10,000. <br />
<br />
"As a business leader I believe it is my responsibility to give back to our communities when we can. My pups have been an amazing force in my life and I know that through the groundbreaking scientific work the doctors at UPENN are doing – we will all benefit!"  <br />

With an entirely restructured layout, color scheme and new logo, the company hopes to usher in a renewed commitment to offering excellent catering service to the DC and surrounding areas. The changes in the site provided the Saint Germain Catering team an opportunity to revisit menu options, rework layout, and confirm the production of useful content and efficient access to their products. The new website and new branding were designed and managed by Unison.<br />
<br />
The new Saint Germain Catering home page has been reworked to create a cohesive, beautiful layout which provides easy access to all of the most popular points on the website as a whole. This creates a central hub for news items, current specials, updated blog posts, and links to related social media accounts.<br />

<br />
"The home page is the core of the new website," says Sarah Miller, Vice President of Saint Germain Catering. "It links the numerous aspects of the site together, creating a big picture overview of the uses available from the website. It&apos;s also a quick update on all things Saint Germain.

<br />
The company has included an extensive menu webpage which lists a comprehensive selection of the foods available for a variety of meals and events.

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Now Offering Special Menu Items for Saint Patrick's Day</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/14/2013 --  With the festivities of Saint Patrick&apos;s Day right around the corner on March 17, Saint Germain Catering is offering its customers a themed menu that will help make their celebrations delicious.<br />
<br />
For a short time, Saint Germain Catering is offering two Saint Patrick&apos;s Day themed specials, each celebrating traditional Irish meals. The Lucky Clover special features beef tips, potatoes, and vegetables, and Saint Germain Catering is also offering a corned beef and cabbage lunch option for those celebrating the holiday. <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">Saint Germain Catering</a>, which serves Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, is offering this seasonally themed menu for only a short time.<br />
<br />
Saint Patrick&apos;s Day is a general celebration of Irish culture, and many communities throughout the country celebrate with festivals and parades where traditional music is played. The leprechaun, a mischievous character in Irish folklore, has become symbolic of the holiday, as has the four-leaf clover, an Irish symbol of good fortune. In fact, the tradition of wearing green on Saint Patrick&apos;s Day derived from the phrase, "Putting on the green," which first referred to wearing a shamrock, not green clothing.<br />
<br />
"Saint Patrick&apos;s Day is a great tradition for Irish-Americans," says Sarah Miller, Vice President of Saint Germain Catering. "We&apos;re happy to offer great food to help anybody celebrate, whether it&apos;s a party at home, a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="catered corporate celebration" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events/corporate-meetings.html">catered corporate celebration</a>, or even a city event. We love serving great food to the people of Northern Virginia, and are always excited to make an event memorable. With this and all of our items, we provide great food at an affordable price, and can handle requests as little as 24 hours in advance."<br />

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Company Awarded Diversity Certifications</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Women- and minority-run catering company, in the Washington DC metro area, raising the bar for diversity.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/08/2013 --  Saint Germain Catering, a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="catering company in the DC Metro area" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">catering company in the DC Metro area</a>, is celebrating its ever diverse menu by remembering its diversity status as a certified Women&apos;s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) and Small, Women-owned and Minority-owned (SWaM) company.<br />
<br />
Those acronyms mean a lot more than one might suspect. WBENC means that Saint Germain Catering is owned, controlled, and operated by women. Similarly, the other acronym, SWaM is a Virginia-based certification program is used by state and federal governments in order to find companies to contract outside of major corporations. Both of these groups strive to offer more opportunities to their constituents.<br />
<br />
Saint Germain Catering, which serves Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, is one of very few WBENC-certified caterers in the DC Metro area. The catering company has had the opportunities over the years to cater to a number of governmental functions and events at Fortune 500 companies in the area. Perhaps the next grand function that they cater will be one of yours? Saint Germain Catering offers special menus for bar/bat mitzvahs, baby showers, bridal showers and weddings, as well as <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="corporate event catering" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events/corporate-meetings.html">corporate event catering</a>. They also offer changing seasonal menu options for holiday celebrations.<br />
<br />
Saint Germain Catering&apos;s certification as a woman-owned business can only be further proven by its owner Ms. Mina Ebrahimi and its Vice President Ms. Sarah Miller. "We are proud to have such a diverse staff and upper management here at Saint Germain Catering," says Miller. "Our certified status as such is only the elegant sauce on the delicious entrees of our quality establishment."<br />
<br />
To match their diverse owner and staff, their food is equally diverse. With menu options that range from Asian cuisine, to <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Bar/Bat Mitzvah specialties" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events/mitzvahs.html">Bar/Bat Mitzvah specialties</a>, to Old-Fashioned Southern cooking, to seasonal specialties like Cajun fare for Mardi Gras, Saint Germain&apos;s Menu offerings are both assorted and appetizing.<br />
<br />
Who knows what other fantastic and varied menu options will be offered in the future by the brilliant people working at Saint Germain Catering?<br />

      <title>Saint Germain Catering Creates New Atkins Diet Menu</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Catering company creates excitement over wider range of dietary options.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/08/2013 --  <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="Saint Germain Catering" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">Saint Germain Catering</a>, which serves Northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, made the decision recently to create seven new entrees for their customers with dietary restrictions. This turned out to be an excellent decision, as they&apos;re selling quite well. With over one dozen orders sold of the new menu in the first week of its launch, it is quite obvious that customers are excited about the new low-carb menu.<br />
<br />
These new menu items are created to fit within the <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="health guidelines of an Atkins Diet" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/tags/atkins-menu-low-carb">health guidelines of an Atkins Diet</a>. What that means is that these nutrition-dense entrees were designed in Saint Germain&apos;s test kitchens to contain as few carbohydrates as possible by avoiding traditional flavor options using grains and sugars and instead using peppers, onions, and other spices to flavor meat and egg-centered dishes.<br />
<br />
By creating new options like "Breakfast Mexican Peppers," "Chicken Cacciatore," and "Lettuce Wrapped Burgers," Vice President Sarah Miller hopes to attract more customers with special dietary needs. The whole <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="catering company" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">catering company</a> is hopeful that the new menu items will continue to be successful.<br />
<br />
"As Saint Germain Catering expanded our menu choices, we thought carefully about how we could meet the needs of our customers who appreciate healthy food options," says Sarah Miller, Vice President of Saint Germain Catering. "So we are excited and pleased to be able to offer them new low carbohydrate food options." This effort to create a greater number of healthy menu items is always a concern for the company, who also offer a selection of &apos;Heart Health Meals&apos;.<br />

      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">The decorative cookies are an instant hit among those who “Like” the company.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/08/2013 --  When a <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="catering company" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">catering company</a> has a social media presence, you can expect one thing to make an appearance in their feeds: pictures of food, and lots of them.

      <title>Saint Germain Catering to Receive Prestigious Award from Wedding Website</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Wedding Wire’s “Bride’s Choice Award” received for outstanding customer service and food.</p><p>Vienna, VA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 03/08/2013 --  Since 2009, Wedding Wire, a website dedicated to helping brides plan their weddings and find the best service providers in their area, has awarded their "Bride&apos;s Choice" Award to the best wedding-related service companies in the nation. This year, Saint Germain Catering was one of the recipients of the award.<br />
<br />
Unlike most awards, which select winners using an internal process within the organization, Wedding Wire&apos;s "Bride&apos;s Choice" Award, as its namesake suggests, uses customer reviews to evaluate companies and select winners. This democratizes the awards process, with only the top 5% of wedding service providers in the nation are presented with the award. In this year&apos;s "Bride&apos;s Choice Award" listing, Saint Germain Catering is featured alongside just thirty-two other <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="wedding caterers" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events/weddings.html">wedding caterers</a> in the area. Out of the listing, less than ten were first time winners of the award.<br />
<br />
Wedding Wire&apos;s primary goal is to help brides develop a checklist for the things which they need to book for their wedding day, as well as to provide an index of companies which service weddings in various ways, including <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="caterers" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/">caterers</a>, photographers, reception halls, and more. The website calls itself, "The Yelp of Weddings," referring to the famous local business review site Yelp.<br />
<br />
"Wedding Wire is one of the biggest resources for brides-to-be for <a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="wedding planning online" href="http://www.saintgermaincatering.com/events/weddings.html">wedding planning online</a>," says Sarah Miller, Vice President of Saint Germain Catering. "So to be selected for this award is a huge honor for us." The company was previously nominated for Best Caterer on WUSA 9 News&apos; A-List.<br />
<br />
While this is the company&apos;s first award from Wedding Wire, they have a legacy of customer service among those whom they have served. "Good customer service is a habit," says Miller. "We want to be known for going above and beyond for our customers, and this award reflects that desire. No business can survive without its customers, and we are grateful for every single one of them."<br />
