Hi I have a food intolerance which I think is peas, pulses, beans, sweetcorn, lentils etc and chilli/spice still working on what it is.

I can get a Google translation but wondered if anyone could help as in the past Google translate has not hit the spot. I had pea shoots yesterday in Wagamama and am thankful I am at home and not away !
My fault yesterday as I did not realize or ask what the green stuff was just woofed it up

I think I want to to ask for a meal without all legumes" ??

Thank you

Be clear on what your actual food intolerances are first I reckon would be a good way forward.

Then find the food groups they fall in.

then come back here or google translate

Google Translate should be fine in most cases, but you're right, it's probably better to get a genuine translation when you're dealing with allergies! I have a degree in French and Spanish so I'll give you a couple of sentences you could use. If you wanted a different sentence translated just let me know.

French:

I would like a meal without legumes =
Je voudrais un repas sans légumineuses

Do you have a meal that doesn't contain legumes =
Avez-vous un repas qui ne contient pas de légumineuses?

Spanish:

I would like a meal without legumes =
Me gustaría una comida sin legumbres

Do you have a meal that doesn't contain legumes =
¿Tiene alguna comida que no contenga legumbres?

My advice is to try to stick to dishes where the ingredients are obvious eg steak frites is easy to work out its safe but avoid dishes like cassoulet, be really careful with tapas.

Google translate is pretty good or google a photo of the dish
