Temple Restaurant Beijing

Consistently held as one of the city’s finest Western-cuisine dining experiences, Temple Restaurant Beijing is helped in no small measure by the meticulous attention to detail of Belgian owner Ignace Lecleir.

Specialities include rice-flake-crusted lobster, black cod with chorizo crisps and all-day braised ribs.
