Most of the indian food receipes contains nuts in one or the other way. This is not at all suitable to those who have nut allergy. So for all those who have such kind of allergy-beware of indian food.

Patients with nut allergy finds very difficult to prevent allergy when eating outside as most of the dishes contains traces of nuts. So better eat home made food.

Actually I also have nut allergy, so i avoid eating in indian or thai restaurant which any food can be contaminated in the kitchen. I generally go for mexican or chinese where peanut are not used in food so I have no fear of consuming peanut accidently

Actually, this is the kind of straight answer you'd like to get from the cook/waiter/manager. My son has a peanut allergy, and I really appreciated it when the manager of a restaurant more or less said what's on the card to me: We'll do our best, but we're not set up to keep everything with peanuts segregated from the rest of the food, so there's a risk of getting cross-contamination.

It's *way* too common to have a waitress or waiter just casually say "no, I don't think there are any peanuts in there" without giving any thought to the answer. I don't like endless proliferation of warning labels and lawyer-written notices, but getting some kind of straight answer from the restaurant staff, when they really can't avoid getting peanuts in your food, is worth a lot.
