In general, Chinese, Thai, and Japanese restaurants are usually safe.  You do
have to be vigilant for the infusion of cream cheese into previously safe
foods, but that's more the exception to the rule.  Indian restaurants can be
tricky since they tend to use a lot of yogurt.

Ruth's Chris Steak House is wonderful.  You have to ask that they not put
butter on the plate before the steak, but I've never had a problem.

Asking, explaining, etc. is necessary no matter where you eat.
