It’s no secret that many deals are made outside the boardroom.

In 2013, Jeff Bezos famously secured The Washington Post for $250 million while traipsing around Hailey, Idaho during the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference. That’s where billionaires and other business types strike deals while competing in tennis matches, going on guided hikes, and yes, eating lunch.

You don’t have to be a billionaire to capitalize on a midday meeting, though. Enter: the power lunch. (Or should I say “remember the power lunch”?)

As the call to return to the office slowly drags on, many are taking advantage of what can happen over a nice meal.

One BI reporter went to Cecconi’s in West Hollywood to find out why the Soho House-owned restaurant has been a mainstay for power-lunchers for 15 years. Her review is the first of many stories that will dig into some of the hottest power-lunch spots across the country.

Although she had a mixed review of the menu, what remains true is that productivity isn’t just reserved for the office.
