Strictly request no rice, no bread, and no fries. Ask for extra grilled vegetables (bell peppers, onions, tomatoes) as substitutes for carb sides. Inquire if the kofta contains breadcrumbs; if so, request plain grilled meat instead.
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
صحن مشاوي مشكلة من فضلك. بدون رز، خبز، أو بطاطا مقلية. ممكن خضروات مشوية زيادة (فلفل، بصل، طماطم). هل الكفتة فيها بقسماط؟ إذا نعم، لحم مشوي بس.
