Kin's Table

Q: What is Nur Dissi's culinary background?

A Diplôme de Cuisine with culinary management from Le Cordon Bleu London, a year as managing director of a London patisserie, and an MSc in Strategic Communications from the London School of Economics.

A chef's table in Amman, and the writing that comes out of it. Cordon Bleu training, a London patisserie behind me, and a Levantine pantry in front of me.

Kin, and a table

Kin's Table began the way most good things do — too much food, too many chairs pulled up, and nobody in a hurry to leave. It is a supper club built on the idea that a table is a form of hospitality older than restaurants: you cook for people the way you would cook for your own, and the evening takes care of itself.

The cooking is Levantine at heart and classically trained by habit — mezze that arrive all at once because that is how they are meant to be eaten, breads pulled from the oven mid-service, a dessert that owes its technique to a Paris syllabus and its flavour to a Jordanian summer.

The Table

Supper club

Seasonal, seated evenings in Amman. One menu, one long table, courses brought out as they are ready. Private tables by arrangement.

Private dining

Cooking in your own home or venue — from an intimate dinner to a standing table for a celebration. Menu built around the season and the room.

Food writing

Features and essays on Levantine food culture, written from inside the kitchen rather than across it. Commissions welcome.

Recipe development

Recipes written, tested and photographed for publications and brands. Pastry and Levantine work a speciality.

About Nur

Nur Dissi is a chef and writer based in Amman. She trained at Le Cordon Bleu London, taking the Diplôme de Cuisine alongside culinary management, and spent a year as managing director of a London patisserie — running the kitchen, the brand and everything in between.

Before the kitchen she read strategic communications at the London School of Economics, which is the part of the training that shows up on the page. She writes in English about food culture, technique and the Levantine table, and develops recipes for publications and brands.

She works between Amman and London, and takes commissions anywhere.
