How would I say these in Mandarin Chinese?
I'm not actually studying Chinese, but I need help for an occasion tomorrow. How would this conversation go in Mandarin Chinese:
- Hello, one buffet meal please.
- All right. That's 9.50 please.
- Here you go, thank you!
- Bon appetit! (have a nice meal)
Thank you!! By the way, I am able to read and pronounce pinyin. ^^
My friend's in for a shock as I order my meal in Chinese tomorrow! ;)

if you are "not actually studying Chinese," you won't say it correctly and instead of "shocked" it will be "shamed" as the waiter will 100% ask you a question you won't be able to reply
