Real English Twenty-three: Take your pick

Last week on Monday, I called an old friend, Mr. O, to tell him the news.  He told me he was coming to Osaka (he lives in Kanazawa) and the following is our conversation from there:

Glenn:  If you have time, would you like to go out to lunch together?

Mr. O:  Love to.  Where do you wanna go?

Glenn:  It's not so romantic, but I always eat a sandwich from Subway Station or udon (white and thick wheat oodles).  So, take your pick! 

Mr. O: Sandwiches don't do it for me. So, udon

Glenn:  Great, then it's a date.

Regarding lunch in general, I usually go to Subway and get a sandwich about 4 times a week.  The other day, I get udon with sweet-fried tofu or soba (buckwheat noodles) with the same.  The first  is nicknamed "The Fox" and the latter is called "The Raccoon", but I don't know why...

The below is the basic correspondence at a Subway Station shop for a first time customer.

Clerk:  How may I help you?

Glenn:  I'd like the "Special Sub" please.

Clerk:  OK. The "Special Sub" of the day is Turkey Breast.  What kind of bread would you like?

Glenn:  Wheat, please.

Clerk:  Would you like it toasted?

Glenn:  No, thanks.

Clerk:  Would you like a topping? I recommend bacon.

Glenn:  Pass.

Clerk:  OK, please wait a moment.

...

Clerk #2:  Are there any vegetables which you don't like?

Glenn:  No olives please.

Clerk #2:  OK, then one Turkey Sandwich without the olives.  I recommend mayonnaise as a dressing.

Glenn:  I'd like salt and pepper and hot peppers only, please.

Clerk #2:  OK. Anything else?  A drink or some fries or a set?

Glenn:  No thanks, that's all.

Clerk #2:  For here or to go?

Glenn: To go please. And please wrap it in paper.

Clerk #3:  OK, that's 320yen.

Glenn:  Here you go.

Clerk #3:  Thank you. Here's your change, 680yen.

Glenn:  Thanks a lot.

Now, after you go there one million times like I have, the conversation with the staff is much shorter, something like this:

Clerk:  Good afternoon! One "Special Sub," is that correct sir?

Glenn: Yes.

Clerk: Wheat bread, as is, not toasted.  Right?

Glenn: Yep.

Clerk #2:  Without olives, all of the other vegetables "super-sized," right?

Glenn: That's correct.

Clerk #2:  Salt, pepper, hot peppers and to go, in paper, right sir?

Glenn:  You got it.

Clerk #3:  May I have your card sir?

Glenn: Here you go.

Clerk: Thank you very much and have a good day!

Glenn:  Thanks, and you too.
