"When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, don't sit down at the place of honor in case someone more important than you was invited by the host.

I tell you, this man, rather than the other one, went down to his home justified, because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the person who humbles himself will be exalted."

But

The fear of the LORD teaches wisdom, and humility precedes honor.

Now concerning food offered to idols: We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

General references

When an evil person comes, contempt also comes, along with dishonor and disgrace.
