How to make it keto

Say this to the waiter (Georgian)
კეტო ფხლოვანისთვის გთხოვთ, არ გამოიყენოთ ცომი ან ფქვილი, ყველიც იყოს უსახამებლო. ხახვი ცოტა დაუმატეთ.

Watch out for
Traditional Pkhlovani is made with a high-carb dough. Ensure the restaurant prepares it completely crustless. Some greens (spinach, beet greens) contribute natural carbs. Watch for any hidden sugar in the cheese blend.
