Eating in restaurants that serve pork

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from outside this country says: Most of the restaurants in our country serve pork. Is it permissible for a Muslim to enter and eat in these restaurants?

Answer:
If there are no others available and there is a designated room that contains nothing forbidden, then there is no harm. Yes.
