Simple line of questioning for a lawyer:

Are you a practicing Jew? If so, do you keep Kosher? If so, why were you eating in a restaurant that serves un-kosher food?

There are very strict laws when it comes to Kashruth (the laws of Kosher food.) One of them is that if Kosher food comes into contact with un-kosher utensils, it’s considered un-Kosher.

Kosher restaurants even have separate meat and dairy kitchens, and the silverware, plates, and utensils can not be mixed.

I don’t think Denny’s advertises that it’s got a Kosher kitchen.

“Are you a practicing Jew? If so, do you keep Kosher? If so, why were you eating in a restaurant that serves un-kosher food?”

Yep. To do so is actually forbidden, even if eating something like an apple, simply because it can mislead other people into thinking the restaurant is kosher.

I’ve butted up against this a lot in traveling around the world. Tend to eat a lot of sushi that I watch get prepared.
