Say this to the waiter (Azerbaijani)
Lülə Kebab xahiş edirəm. Lavaş və ya düyü olmasın. Əvəzinə əlavə qızardılmış tərəvəzlər (pomidor, soğan, bibər) ala bilərəmmi?
Lula Kebab, please. No lavash or rice. Can I have extra grilled vegetables like tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers instead?
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in marinades (unlikely for simple lula but possible), cross-contamination with bread/rice on plates.
