kondo oshiete
polite kondo oshiete kudasai
you'll have to show me sometime; tell me sometime
A friendly reply when someone mentions a skill, a place or a recipe; a light request, not a firm plan.
Kondo = next time or sometime soon; oshieru is both 'teach' and 'tell'.

That place sounds great! Tell me where it is sometime.
