How to make it keto
Ask for no fries (Pommes), potato gratin (Kartoffelgratin), or any other potato/bread sides. Request a simple green salad with oil and vinegar dressing, or steamed non-starchy vegetables (e.g., green beans, broccoli, asparagus). Confirm no sugary marinades or sauces.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Bitte keine Pommes, Kartoffelgratin oder andere Kartoffel-/Brotbeilagen. Ich hätte gerne einen grünen Salat mit Öl und Essig, oder gedämpftes Gemüse. Keine zuckerhaltigen Marinaden oder Soßen.
No Pommes, Kartoffelgratin, or other potato/bread sides, please. I'd like a green salad with oil and vinegar, or steamed vegetables. No sugary marinades or sauces.
Watch out for
Marinades or rubs with hidden sugars, carb-heavy sauces (e.g., béarnaise, some pepper sauces can contain thickeners/sugar), traditional sides. Even Kräuterbutter sometimes has a pinch of sugar.
