As the Beatles sang in their 1967 hit, “All You Need is Love,” they weren't just referring to the love of another but also the love of oneself. Our next Hot Spot guest, Chef Jordan Kahn, is writing a new chapter in his career, focused on redefining success and joy through love.
Jordan honed his skills under culinary icons like Thomas Keller, Grant Achatz, and Michael Mina. He has been at the forefront of LA’s culinary scene with his restaurants—Destroyer, an informal daytime spot serving sophisticated, wholesome fare; Meteora, a transporting, holistic restaurant focusing on live-fire cooking that opened in 2022; and the recently reopened Vespertine, his extravagant experiment in fine dining that closed for the greater part of three years.
Vespertine’s previous accolades include two Michelin stars from 2019 to 2021, recognition as one of the Most Beautiful Restaurants by Condé Nast, and a spot on Time Magazine’s prestigious list of the World’s 100 Greatest Places.
Despite the awards, accolades, and so-called success, Jordan felt depleted and undernourished by his work. The pandemic, although devastating to the industry, also allowed him to slow down, find balance and meet the love of his life. His wife Zara has had a tremendous influence on him, helping him move "from the head to the heart" in both his creative culinary pursuits and in life in general.
