Art to food
I am proudly the first-born son to the incomparable artist Eleia Yousef Kayal (Master Painter and Calligrapher to King Hussein of Jordan)Like my late father, I am self-taught, tenacious, and passionate about what I do.

Like him I’ve led a very creative life in the fine arts and now the culinary arts.

Global foods and the culinary arts is not the vocation I originally chose but in time I learned it is the thing that I do that gives me the most joy and satisfaction. Forever intriguing and consuming my thoughts and sometimes my dreams.

Let my team and I entertain you with fire and passion, that is my international table.
Culinary theatre is my trademark
It’s an interactive culinary experience where you, the client, get a chance to see the food being prepared before your eyes. Food stations allow for showmanship and culinary entertainment that will hopefully engage you to try new things and see why I’m so excited about the food I cook.

client reviews
Yousef was a pleasure to work with. He helped to coordinate a 30 person elevated cocktail party within 3 weeks' time, and the reception was amazing. We were blown away with his attention to cohesiveness and elevation when considering the cuisine, styling, presentation and service. We are eager to work together again with Yousef!

My International Table was a huge hit at my wedding. Yousef was so quick to respond to me, listen and understand my vision, make suggestions and prepare a menu for us, his team arrived early to set up, the table looked gorgeous, and all my guests loved the food! There was enough food and the value was good for the quality - you can tell they really care about their work. I’d highly recommend them and would totally use them again for future needs

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the catering services of Yousef (My International Table ) in Calgary, and I must say it exceeded my expectations. The Grazing Charcuterie Table was a delightful assortment, the chicken skewers were perfectly seasoned, and the Pistachio Pasta was a unique and flavorful highlight. Highly recommended for anyone seeking delicious and diverse catering options!

Chef Yousef catered a gathering for me and I would recommend him and his business to everyone I know without any hesitation. It is evident that he has a deep passion for what he does. He exhibited a high level of professionalism and creativity for myself and my guests. Thank you so much, Yousef!

We recently hired Yousef and his team for a staff event. I was very impressed with every aspect of the service. Yousef was easy to work with and flexible, the food was amazing, and the set up and service from his staff was wonderful. If you’re looking for a caterer with a wide range of international culinary expertise and something more unique and exciting than the typical catering fare, I would unreservedly recommend My International Table.

How perfect it was for our Jewish film festival to have engaged Yousef Kayal for audiences of ~100 screening cross-cultural cinema! Thoughtfully uniting Jewish, Palestinian, and related cultures' foods (among them babka, sabich, and black hummus), Yousef curated, created , and catered a memorably delicious and delightful in-cinema culinary experience!

I have seen the beautiful presented photos and read about each international dish. How I know about this food is Yousef, Chef made snack boxes for two in person movies for the Jewish Film Festival. The snack were a meal and they were mighty fine and different for each movie. See you all next year.
