Jonathan Whitener, chef of Here's Looking at You in Koreatown and All Day Baby in Silver Lake, has died at age 36, according to a public report from the Los Angeles County medical examiner.
Whitener's globally influenced cooking at Here's Looking at You, which opened in 2016, received local and national acclaim, with high praise coming from late Los Angeles Times restaurant critic Jonathan Gold, who wrote of the chef's "strong flavors, jolts of acidity...and tendency to stuff hints of umami almost everywhere it might conceivably belong.
