Bill the French? Do the set of limited courses! (5,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

table dhote

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'of limited courses' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'bill the french? do the set' is the wordplay.
'bill' becomes 'tab' (a tab is a bill at a bar).
'the french?' becomes 'le' ('the' in French).
'set' indicates anagramming the letters (instruction to set the letters).
'do'+'the'='dothe'
'dothe' is an anagram of 'dhote'.
'tab'+'le'+'dhote'='TABLE-DHOTE'

Can you help me to learn more?
