Say this to the waiter (French)
Sans frites, pommes de terre ou autres féculents, s'il vous plaît. Est-ce que la sauce est sans farine ni sucre ajouté ? Je prendrai des haricots verts ou une salade verte huile-vinaigre.
Please, no fries, potatoes, or other starchy sides. Ensure the sauce is flour-free and has no added sugar. I'd like green beans or a side salad with oil and vinegar.
Watch out for
Cognac can contain trace sugars. Restaurant sauces may be secretly thickened with flour or cornstarch. Pre-made beef broths can contain hidden sugars or starches. Ensure green beans are not prepared with sugary glazes.
