Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

WhoopemUp Bobcat

DAYTON - The Bobcat Room at Hotel Hardware hosted a pop-up with food from the iconic and sorely missed restaurant, the Whoopemup Hollow Cafe.

For those who miss, and those who missed, the Whoopemup when it was in Waitsburg, the Bobcat Room brought one of the owners in for a pop-up event.

On July 26, Val Mudry made Whoop 'Em Up gumbo and cornbread for a room full of grateful Bobcat Room customers.

Valerie Mudry brought back memories of the Whoop 'em Up Cafe with a delicious gumbo and cornbread dinner at the Saturday pop-up.

Padraic Slattery commented on Facebook that he first read about the Whoopemup ten years ago and made his first trip to Waitsburg just to try it. It won him over and he made it an annual trip. When he discovered Val was one of the cafe's masterminds, he wanted to collaborate.

Bobcat's Padraic Slattery paired spicy cocktails with the gumbo.

Perhaps the community can convince Mudry and Slattery to give us an encore.
