How it's used

This phrase carries a strong sense of dishonesty and social disapproval. It is specifically used for the act of leaving a restaurant or eatery without paying the bill, rather than just getting a free meal through legitimate means. The term implies a deliberate, sneaky attempt to cheat the business owner.
