  moD Soj 
  the food hurries KGT

KGT 102f.  Some restaurants post a sign reading {moD Soj} ("the food hurries"). This means that the restaurant, sometimes called a {Do Qe'} ("velocity restaurant"), caters to those who have a limited amount of time to eat before returning to their various duties.

  "Get us out of here, {moD}!" (KCD novel, p.144)

Note the idiom {qul DIr yISop!} "Eat the fire skin!" 
KGT 110:  This phrase means "Hurry up! Move quickly!"

Cf. also {nom yIghoSqu'} "Maximum speed." (ST5)
