Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Pstruha, prosím, bez zemiakov a ryže. Namiesto toho poprosím varenú/grilovanú zeleninu (napr. brokolica, špargľa) alebo zelený šalát s olivovým olejom.
For the Pstruh, no potatoes or rice, please. Instead, can I have steamed/grilled vegetables (e.g., broccoli, asparagus) or a green salad with olive oil?
