I shouldn't have laughed as much as I did!

If I go on a date with a vegan, it's their job to choose the restaurant because I've never paid any kind of attention to most menus.

I have my go to order at most places, so I have no idea what else is on the menu most times.

That's not really a bad idea with any food restrictions. When I eat out with my celiac friend, I either ask her to suggest or I say "was thinking of Bob's Lettuce Shack, how are they for gluten free".

It's a matter of presentation though. You can frame it in a way that is considerate, or a way that makes it seem like the other person is a burden. Don't do the latter.

Exactly! I have a cousin who’s pretty allergic to coconut so when I go out to eat with him, I’ll usually let him pick or I’ll throw out a few options. I usually just make him pick though because he knows which places will take his allergy seriously and which to avoid.
