pasta at non-kosher establishment

Question

When dining for business, is it okay to eat pasta with vegetarian tomato sauce at an unkosher establishment. From what I have been reading on your board, it occurred to me that one might be able to since it is not a type of meal that one would think of as "fit for a king's table" (or is it?) Or are there also problems with there dishes and pots? Thank you for all this information.
