Oh I see! So, is it correct :
"[at work] I'm dying of hunger, I'm gonna get home and have a slap-up meal"
Or is it only about for special occasions? (I think I asked the wrong question, hehe)

@afonsoalbrecht: It's a colloquial slang in my opinion, so your first sentence might be more fitting. Not "posh" so to say.
For special occasions like weddings or birthdays, you might prefer to use more formal words like "a lavish meal", "a sumptuous wedding banquet" for example
