Say this to the waiter (Dutch)
Graag geen aardappelen of koolhydraatrijke bijgerechten, enkel laag-koolhydraat groenten. En let u erop dat er geen bloem of suiker in de hachee zit?
No potatoes or carb-heavy sides, please. Only low-carb vegetables. Please ensure no flour or sugar is used in the stew.
