The Order of Business
 
Don't bring up business until after dinner is over. (Unless your guest wants to talk business).

Start by ordering drinks.

Offer coffee, tea, wine or a cocktail. You do not have to order alcohol and never drink more than two drinks. Many people dislike doing business with drunks.

Drinks should last no longer than 30 minutes.

Order multiple courses of easy to eat "Slow Food."

The goal is to establish a relationship and that takes time.
