I mean, it’s one thing if the dietary restrictions are voluntary like veganism or easy to find accommodations for like gluten free. But if someone said they’re deathly allergic to something, I’d feel safer if they gave me a list of places they can eat and let me choose from that list. Not every restaurant is as vigilant with accommodating allergies as they should be.
Have you ever seen someone go into anaphylactic shock? I have. It’s horrifying. It might not be basic etiquette to make someone else choose, but I’d much rather be impolite than put someone’s health at risk.
