we should have filmed the making of wd50, plenty of gripping drama there.

speaking of lucien, i dug this up on a search

"On November 12, 1998, a DOH inspector was conducting a pre-operational inspection at Lucien's Restaurant, located at 14 First Avenue, Manhattan, and met with the owner, LUCIEN BAHAJ. During the course of the inspection, the inspector pointed out such violations as rodent and vermin activity, cold food being stored above the mandated temperature, and ashtrays in a smoke-free area. BAHAJ then offered the inspector approximately $50 not to issue any violations. The inspector refused the offer and contacted DOI. On March 25, 1999, DOI sent an undercover agent, posing as a DOH inspector, to the restaurant to conduct an inspection. While there, the DOI undercover pointed out such violations as mouse droppings and uncovered food to BAHAJ, who then offered and paid the undercover $100 not to issue any violations."

I will say this is absolutely false if served a few free meals with wine on clean plates and vessels. After all, I have met the gentleman and I like free meals.
