Request for a quick translation

[eleni]

Hello everyone! 

I would like to request if someone could translate the following sentence in Mandarin Chinese: 

"What would you like to order, sir?"

It would be very helpful if someone answered quick, as it is needed ASAP. 

Thanks in advance!

先生,您想点什么菜？

 

Xiansheng, nin xiang dian shenme cai?

 

(Assuming he's ordering food in a restaurant.)

Thank you for your quick reply!

However, I meant it in a more generic way, "Sir, what would you like to order/buy?" 

If you could generalize it, it would be a great help! 

Thank you!

Just like English, context matters. You're not going to say the same thing in a jewelry store and at a burger place. And you wouldn't say, "What would you like to order, sir?" in a sporting gear place, would you. It's inapt.

 

If you want a useful answer, you'll have to give some background.

Let's say you call up a supermarket for grocery delivery. The supermarket assistant picks up the phone, asking "What would you like to order, sir?". How would you say that in Mandarin Chinese?

Thanks again.
