Say this to the waiter (German)
Bitte keine Kartoffeln, Rösti oder stärkehaltige Beilagen. Ist die Meerrettichsoße zuckerfrei und der Rahmspinat ohne Mehl angedickt?
Please omit potatoes, Rösti, or other starchy sides. Is the horseradish sauce sugar-free? And is the creamed spinach not thickened with flour?
Watch out for
