Say this to the waiter (German)
Bitte keinen Kartoffelsalat, keine Pommes, kein Brot. Ich hätte gerne einen grünen Salat mit Essig-Öl-Dressing oder gedämpftes Gemüse.
No potato salad, fries, or bread, please. I'd like a side of green salad with oil and vinegar, or steamed green vegetables.
Watch out for
Bread/pretzel, potato salad, sugary dressing on side salad, hidden sugars in any accompanying sauces (e.g., sweet mustard).
