General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Apparently, there is a local expression in Osaka, which means eating till your gut explodes.
Unfortunately, the phrase/ word itself is omitted in my original dialogue list.
It sounds like 'qui-do-eye".
What I need is a transcription into Latin alphabet, so the voiceover actor can read it properly, the way it should sound in Japanese.
For all your help many thanks in advance.

食い倒れ (Kuidaore)
"Kuidaore (食い倒れ)
Kuidaore (食い倒れ ) is a Japanese word meaning roughly “to ruin oneself by extravagance in food.” It is sometimes romanized as cuidaore, and is part of a larger proverb: "Dress (in kimonos) till you drop in Kyoto, eat till you drop in Osaka" (京の着倒れ、大阪の食い倒れ)."
Kuidaore is pronounced like "kwee-doray".

kui do raku?
From the sound, "qui do eye", I would assume that you're trying to say "kui do raku." (Precisely, it's not meaning eat till you get explode, but more like, greedy for gourmet food) I think "qui dough luck" may sound close enough to say "kui do raku."
