Say this to the waiter (Croatian)
Molim Jaja s Tartufima. Bez dodanog mlijeka ili vrhnja. I bez kruha ili tosta kao priloga.
I'd like the Jaja s Tartufima. Please, no added milk or cream. And no bread or toast on the side.
Watch out for
Sometimes a small amount of milk is added for creaminess (negligible if small, but worth checking). The main risk is usually the accompanying bread.
