BE SURE TO LET YOUR SERVER KNOW WHAT YOU WANT
No matter where you may be, it is important that you ask the right questions in order to get what you need. Restaurants are more then happy to accommodate you because they want you to come back and dine with them again, and because they rely on good word of mouth advertising, especially in our social media driven society.
Be sure to let your server know what foods to leave off of your dish, and also tell your server what foods to add to your dish. For example, I always look over the entire menu to see what I like and then I find a way to make it vegan.
