When you go to a causal diner ( like Dennys which is great) you get a choice of a soup or salad which your main dinner course free. The reason I say that is because I lived in the States for years and when the server said very quickly ' soup or salad? to tourists from the UK it sound like ' super salad?' and they would answer 'Yes sounds good' only for them to repeat it. When ordering breakfast you must say what your choice are. eg I would like steak and eggs, steak well done, eggs scrambled, toast white bread . . Try a uk casino ( grovernor are good) to pratice the tables., but set a limit every time, what you win goes in one pocket and what come out, out of another, when you run out, dont use your profit pocket. I worked in a Casino, you will win once so have fun
