Bum drained extremely hot brew in NY's skid row (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
the bowery
'ny's skid row' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'bum drained extremely hot brew' is the wordplay.
'bum' indicates an anagram (bum can mean faulty or wrong).
'drained' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters).
'extremely' with its centre removed is 'ey'.
'ey'+'hot'+'brew'='eyhotbrew'
'eyhotbrew' with letters rearranged gives 'THE BOWERY'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for the bowery that I've seen before include "New York street" , "New York locale" , "NY street frequented by tramps" .)
