Ben Smith points out that the New York restaurant where Obama lunched with Bill Clinton earlier today--Il Mulino--is the sort of over-the-top Italian place much more to Clinton's epicurean tastes than Obama's. All I can say for Obama is that he's lucky the lunch wasn't in D.C. Otherwise, Clinton might have dragged him to Filomena's, where he used to chow down with Helmut Kohl.
