...first I thought I was in Grafton. Then I realized that the interior here was everything I had always hoped Grafton could be. I could see behind me! The bar was sleek and clean. Amazing. Perhaps this has more to do with the fact that, unlike Grafton, Temple Bar does not pull double duty as both a lunchtime hotspot and late-night social hub—it doesn’t even open until 5 p.m. Oh, and the martini here is a must.

After a stint at culinary school, followed by work in kitchens throughout Europe, Samuelsson became executive chef at New York City's sleek Aquavit in 1995 when he was only 24; he has lived in New York ever since, with annual visits to both Sweden and Ethiopia. His recipes reflect his global view, with traditional Swedish dishes--such as gravlax with mustard sauce, prune-stuffed pork roast and, yes, Swedish meatballs--interspersed with his own creations...
