Re: placement of "expensive food" and "a few times"
Rather than either of these versions, I would suggest for the sake of clarity:
-->
During his short visit, he offered expensive food a few times to some people who had worked with him on a major business project.
-->
During his short visit, he offered expensive food a few times to some people who had worked with him on a major business project.
