Typically per Diem is paid for long term way from home work, sort term as you are doing is usually handled on a expenced report upon return to home office.

Most private companies reimburse you for whatever you pay for food and other expenses, although they often do have limits so you won't be ordering that $100 a bottle wine. I'd check with your accounting department.
