Say this to the waiter (French)
Pas de pommes sarladaises ni d'autres accompagnements féculents, s'il vous plaît. Uniquement des légumes non féculents, comme des haricots verts ou des épinards.
Please, no pommes sarladaises or other starchy sides. I'd like only non-starchy vegetables, like green beans or spinach.
Watch out for
Some restaurants might glaze the duck or green beans with a sugary sauce, or serve with high-carb legumes.
