I finally got a peak at Temple, the secluded project headed by former Maison Boulud GM Ignace Lecleir, near the National Art Museum and eateries such as Chengdu restaurant Shudu Binguan and newcomer Susu Vietnamese restaurant. Temple’s 80-seat restaurant will open later this year, said Lecleir, but the kitchen is in place and the venue is hosting private events for up to 250 people, with about a half-dozen on the schedule this month. I attended one yesterday, a tasting of Dr. Buerklin-Wolf wines from Globus, of which I’ll have more soon.
