I want to speak like a native!! Seriously!!๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Could you please help me by correcting anything that's wrong or sounds unnatural in my sentences?
It's alright if you change an entire sentence!!! Or you can change whatever you want!
I'd like to learn some common phrases and slang! ๐Ÿ™
Also, I'd like to get your advice on how to talk to foreigners.
I'm looking forward to your constructive criticism.โœ๏ธ


B: Excuse me, do you know any places to eat nearby?
A: Well, I don't live here, so I don't know. I'm sure there are many places. I'll check it out. What are you in the mood for?
B: What kind of restaurants, for example?
A: I just checked Italian restaurants, sushi, ramen, yakitori, and so on. I think you can find most of them. How much is your budget?
B: Well, about 2,000 yen.
A: I see. Then I'll show you a picture of the stores around here. Here they are. They may have mixed up some different ones.
B: Oh, nice!
A: Can you decide?
B: This place looks nice. Is this fried chicken?
A: This is "Karaage". It's like fried chicken.
B: What's the difference?
A: Well, I don't know, but I've heard that karaage is seasoned by marinating the meat in the sauce, while fried chicken is seasoned by the batter. Maybe.
B: I see.
A: So what do you want to do? Go for "Karaage"?
B: Yes! I'll eat it and see the difference.
A: Nice idea! I'll check the place now. Well, I'm sorry, this place isn't near here. But I'm sure they have everything else. Sorry
B: It's totally alright. Well, Here then!
A: Oh, tempura! Ok! I got it! Well, I'm sorry. This restaurant wasn't close by either. Next time, if there is no restaurant of your choice, I'll make you a dish you want to eat.
B: Okay, haha. Well, here then! Ramen!
A: Hold on a sec, okay! There is!
Wait a minute. There's the place you chose, and there's other places too! Here.
B: Oh, nice. Well, do you guess what flavor is this?
A: Umm, miso, I think. And this one is probably Tonkotsu flavor, and this one is Tsukemen.
B: Tsukemen?
It consists of noodles which are dipped in a separate bowl of soup or broth, before being eaten. The dish is a very popular in Japan.
B: I see. Well, mmm...let me see. This place looks good. I'll go for here.
A: This place? This place is probably miso type. Is this okay?
B: Yes.
A: Ok, wait a minute, I'll show you the way, let me set the app road.
B: Oh, thanks!
A: No problem. Okay, let's go.
B: Isn't it right there?
A: Uh, no, it's not.
Here we are! This is it.
B: Thank you very much!
A: I bet you. Have a nice day!
