Moppin (to stuff one's face, pig out, eat without shame, nothing goes to waste on a plate of food), this is a verb, let's use this word in a sentence.
"We went to Frog Hollow Tavern in Augusta, Georgia. And everything we ordered we went moppin! Chucky even licked his plate!"
I know the Masters is a few weeks off, but why not hype it up early right. And yours truly is here on the Valley Isle Maui, Hawaii. I ran into some folks from Georgia and I asked them if they played golf, and they said they do. I asked if they ever played at Augusta, and the two men in their late 40s laughed. "Yeah right, we aren't connected and we don't make enough money, we stick to the public courses."
These two guys were big Falcons fans and Bulldog fans. Georgia bred, all that good Georgia stories they were telling me. One guy named Brad said he and his dad went to the Masters a long time ago when Freddy Couples won the Green Jacket. Hey that was in the 90s sometime. So besides these Georgia boys playing golf on Maui, they were raving about the good fresh fish we got here. "You guys got fresh ahi, I love it." Well, we do ahi well, we know our fish, we'll eat it prepared anyway, raw, poke, grilled, whatever and wherever ahi is, we will eat it.
So with the Masters over a month away, I had to ask, "Hey Brad where's a good place to eat in Augusta?" He looked at me and said, "Frog Hollow Tavern, good food man." The other guy's name was Jimmy he agreed. "Yeah Frog Hollow."
Ok, so I went online to check out this Frog Hollow Tavern these men spoke of. And voila I found it on Google, Yelp and Trip Advisor.

Or the Braised Berkshire Pork Shoulder for 22.00, with Smoked Tomato Pork Jus. Smoked Gouda Mac n Cheese. Port Wine & Vinegar Braised Collards.
Or the Angus Cowgirl Ribeye for 32.00, with Creamed Kale Twice Baked Russet Potato. Meyer Lemon Chive Marrow Butter. Sauce Bordelaise. Woo that's some rich stuff!!!! Love it, anything with _____aise at the end sound delicious.
Well go check it out, if you decide to travel to Georgia and feel generous, buy my plane ticket, and I'll need per diem, and a rental car so I can do my own thang.
