Hi gang.
Last post for today, I promise.
Anyway, my search for an exotic "oriental-like" romantic name for my
restaurant has yielded the following possibilities:
1) Malee - meaning "Jasmine" in Thai. Nothing to do with food, really, but
it happens to mean the same thing in most South Indian languages.
2) Shiok - This is the word used in Singapore for lip-smacking food. Rough
American English equivalent: "Delish!"
(pronounced almost like "shook")
I'm leaning towards the latter as things stand now.
More updates will be sent if and when there's something to report.
Regards,
Madhu
