Once upon a time, there was an unemployed hot dog stand salesman from Addison, Texas named Loch. A strange fellow he was. For breakfast, lunch, and dinner, he always had potato pancakes and water.
Then one day, he took all his savings, went into the city and bought an expensive suit, shirt, tie, shoes, hat and a cane. He also got a business man's haircut and shaved his beard and moustache.
That evening, he put on his new suit, shirt, tie, shoes, and hat and walked into the fanciest restaurant with his cane in hand. He was seated at the best table and was given first class treatment. He ordered the most expensive wine and most expensive entrees. The owner of the restaurant made sure the waiters treated him properly.
After seven courses and a bottle of wine, the waiter asked if he wanted anything for dessert. Loch turned to him and said, "I would like a potato pancake, please."
It puzzled the waiter but he took his order to the kitchen nonetheless. The head chef listened to the order in disbelief. He thought to himself, "No one orders a potato pancake for dessert."
A couple of minutes later, the waiter brought out a potato pancake and served it with a new fork. Loch finished the potato pancake and asked the waiter for his hat and cane.
The waiter came back with his hat and cane and also presented the bill. Loch asked the waiter to put it on his tab. The waiter was confused and went to the owner of the restaurant.
At this point, Loch ran out the door of the restaurant without paying.
That is the history of the "dine 'n dash".
