Suppose someone rarely takes notes during meetings. Sometimes it is important to impress an individual or VIPs in order to meet the needs of a program or organization. Go to the restaurant early. Make sure people are seated and introduced. Wait 10 minutes for late comers before joining the table.
Guests go first.
Do not walk in front of guests and definitely let them order their meal first. Business after food. Save those reports or folders until after the food dishes have been cleared away. Best to save the business until the lunch is wrapping up. Pay in advance.
