Break in which father is providing meal (6)
I believe the answer is:
repast
'providing meal' is the definition.
'repast' can be an answer for 'meal' (repast can mean a meal). I'm not sure about the 'providing' bit.
'break in which father' is the wordplay.
'break' becomes 'rest' (a rest is taking a break).
'in which' indicates putting letters inside.
'father' becomes 'pa' (pa can mean dad or father).
'rest' going around 'pa' is 'REPAST'.
'is' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for repast that I've seen before include "Prates about meal" , "A meal concerning time gone by" , "lunch?" , "Banquet" , "Feast, meal" .)
