뜻
Having lunch later than usual.
문화적 배경
Lunch is the most social meal of the day. It's common for offices to close from 12:00 to 1:00 PM entirely. The Isan people speak a dialect very similar to Lao and also use 'Kin Khao Suay', though 'Khao Thiang' is becoming more common due to Thai influence. In the capital, 'Khao Suay' often involves 'Khao Piak Sen' (noodle soup) or 'Tam Mak Hoong' (papaya salad) shared among friends. In villages, 'Khao Suay' is eaten whenever the work in the fields allows for a break, often under a tree.
The 'Have you eaten?' Greeting
Asking 'Kin khao suay laew bor?' is often just a way to say hello. You don't always have to give a detailed menu of what you ate!
Sticky Rice Etiquette
If you're eating 'Khao Suay' with sticky rice, always use your right hand to ball the rice.
