Say this to the waiter (Dutch)
Kunt u bevestigen dat de saus is gebonden door inkoken met room, zonder bloem of zetmeel? Geen suiker bij de witloof. En graag geen koolhydraatrijke bijgerechten, zoals aardappelpuree.
Please confirm the sauce is thickened by cream reduction, not flour or starch. No sugary additions to the endive. And no carb-heavy sides like mashed potatoes.
Watch out for
