Say this to the waiter (Estonian)
Palun ilma paneeringu või jahuta praadida. Soovin kartuli või riisi asemel madala süsivesikusisaldusega rohelisi köögivilju, nt salatit või brokolit.
Please, no breading or flour for frying. I'd like a side of low-carb greens, like broccoli or salad, instead of potatoes or rice.
