Depends a bit on the version of KDE you are using.

KDE from 3.4 on uses the freedesktop.org menu specification, earlier version 
use KDE internal locations.

Assuming the first, the directories used for searching for menu entries can be 
determined like this:

$ kde-config --path xdgdata-apps

The directories searched for menu structure files like this:

$ kde-config --path xdgconf-menu

The specification for the entry files can be found here
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fbasedir_2dspec

the specification for menu files here
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fmenu_2dspec

Cheers,
Kevin
