Say this to the waiter (French)
Sans pommes de terre ni accompagnement féculent, s'il vous plaît. La sauce est-elle sans farine ni fécule de maïs ? Pourrais-je avoir des haricots verts ou du brocoli en plus ?
No potatoes or starchy sides, please. Is the gravy thickened with flour or cornstarch? Can I have extra green beans or broccoli?
