Greetings!

Hello, blogosphere.

"Kau tim" means done, finished, settled. It is also a way of expressing agreement. It is best uttered with an air of smugness and satisfaction in the finality of the matter. Just like when we have chosen the right place to dine at. 


"Lah" is a mysterious word. As Urban Dictionary defines: "a slang used mainly by people of South-East Asia (Malaysia and Singapore mainly) to complement almost any sentence available in a social conversation. the origins of this slang is basically from the chinese language, yet it is now used by almost anyone in the two countries mentioned above who aren't too shy to let their asian roots shine with pride. people who don't use the -lah slang is considered a snob to a certain degree." 

For example, here's a mundane conversation you would hear when it comes to meal times.

"Hey, where shall we have lunch today?"
"I don't know lah. What do you feel like?"
"Hmm, I was thinking of curry."
"Kau tim lah, let's go try that new banana leaf rice!"

So, here at Kau Tim Lah, we hope to offer you enough choices with different cuisines in the Klang Valley for your culinary reference.

Kau tim?
