I just learned that it is really American to use "do" in the context of, say, being at Max Brenner and after some hesitation deciding: "I'll do the brownie!"
Australians would use "have."
And actually I'd recommend not doing the brownie -- it's really a bit too rich. The Belgian waffle is much better.

And one needs to be careful about the context in which one uses the word "do" - in certain circumstances it can have a sexual connotation.
