When Lamar Met Khloe ... And It Cost Him $3,000

"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach" ... and the way to a Kardashian's heart is apparently through her liver.

Lamar Odom and Khole Kardashian

TMZ has learned exactly how the love story between Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom began -- and it all started with a bar tab around $3,000.

It all went down on August 27th, when Khloe was hosting a "Welcome to LA" party for brand new Laker, Ron Artest, at Halo in Hollywood.

Khloe ran up one hell of a bill that night ... and for some reason, Lamar decided to cover the whole thing -- after all, cash money is the ultimate aphrodisiac.

A source extremely close to Khloe confirmed the whole story, telling us, "At first, she wasn't going to do the event ... but she literally met her husband there. And yes, he paid for everything."

And there's no question -- Lamar definitely got what he paid for. For the record, K and L will be tying the knot exactly one month after they hit it off!

Lamar Odom or should I say (ODUMB) really played his self. As many sistahs out here and you go and lay up and wife up a piece of trash that a good decent white man don't even want. But, he gets what he deserves on this one. And on second thought a sistah aint checking for him laker or no laker. He has baby mama drama. So, yeah I guess he picked the right fool. Good luck dumbies. She is just as much of a whore and money hungry as her whorish ass sister Kim, and her mother. And Dumb ass Bruce he's too stupid and PUS?Y whipped to even see it with his caved in eyes and thin ass hair. And by the way, is that brother of theirs gay or what ?

Good for Lamar and congratulations to them. Wishing them many years of happiness. Hold off the mean comments. If its meant to be they will be together. If not, this wouldn't be the first marriage to end.

SO ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS FLASH A LITTLE MONEY AND NOW SHE'S IN LOVE AND GETTING MARRIED IN LESS THAN A MONTH. HOW DAMN DESPERATE DOES THAT LOOK? AND IF SHE HAD A $3K BAR TAB THEN SHE'S A DAMN ALCOHOLIC.
