Steph: Are you having a good time?

Al: Yeah, definitely! For sure! It’s wonderful!

Steph: So I got to ask you…which do you like more, sushi or sashimi?

Al: Wow. Well, they’re both very good, but, you know, I like sushi.

Steph: What’s your favorite kind of sushi?

Al: Well, I really like tuna, but I don’t really like sea urchin.

Steph: Why not?

Al: It’s a bit bitter for my taste. A bit fishy.

Steph: All right.

Al: Yeah. How about you? What do you like?

Steph: Well, I definitely like tuna and salmon. Actually, to be honest, I like all kinds of sushi.

Al: All kinds of sushi?

Steph: All kinds. Absolutely.
