I no longer have it in my email archives but long story short, David Lebowitz had certain minimum standards if we were to be permitted to buy him lunch (if he would even accept lunch as opposed to dinner - I forget).

If you aren't part of the DL "inner circle", he no longer accepts requests for meals unless they are a 3-4 michelin star restaurant, and still no guaranteed approval.

What's the phrase? Once we start discussing price we've already established what kind of girl you are. (Not you, per se...)i.e., It would have been better for him simply to explain that he can't accept such invitations, full stop...
