Ensure no mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes, or bread are served. Confirm sauerkraut is unsweetened; many restaurants sweeten it significantly. Ask for extra fat or butter on the side if desired.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Das Kassler bitte ohne Kartoffelpüree, Salzkartoffeln oder Brot. Ist das Sauerkraut ungesüßt? Etwas extra Fett oder Butter dazu wäre gut.
For the Kassler, no mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes, or bread. Is the Sauerkraut unsweetened? Can I get some extra fat or butter on the side?
