A FRESH NEW division of Elegant Essen Catering

       Elegant Essen Catering has been considered one of Atlanta’s prime catering companies since its founding in the late 80’s. Owner Marlene Bercovitch, along with her husband Ed built the company from scratch. (It all started with Marlene’s “secret” recipe for “Whiskey Cake”.)

       Since 1988, the Bercovitches have developed a reputation for delicious, efficient food service and catering, and built strong, lasting relationships with many institutions, universities, corporations and private individuals. The company has been extremely gratified to have catered numerous celebrations, receptions and parties throughout Atlanta and North Georgia.

       Fitness Feasts is a “FRESH” division of Elegant Essen Catering, with emphasis on healthful, delicious, low calorie meals delivered twice weekly throughout metro Atlanta and its suburbs. All of Fitness Feasts’ products have the benefit of being kosher certified by the Atlanta Kashruth Commission, one of America’s most respected kosher certifying agencies.
