Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Grilovanú Krkovičku poprosím bez zemiakov a chleba. Ako prílohu by som si prial grilovanú cuketu, parenú brokolicu alebo jednoduchý miešaný zelený šalát.
For the Grilovaná Krkovička, no potatoes or bread, please. Could I have grilled zucchini, steamed broccoli, or a simple mixed green salad as a side?
Watch out for
Standard high-carb sides (fries, potatoes, rice), sugary marinades or sauces (less common for simple krkovička, but always worth checking), high-carb vegetables if mixed into a side.
