Optional tweaks
Ensure no bread or crackers are served alongside. Confirm that no truffle oil with artificial additives is used, only fresh truffles and natural olive oil.
Say this to the waiter (Croatian)
Molim bez kruha ili krekera. Možete li potvrditi da se koristi samo svježi tartuf i prirodno maslinovo ulje, bez umjetnog ulja?
Please serve this without bread or crackers. Confirm it's made only with fresh truffles and natural olive oil, no artificial truffle oil.
