Cafe has new dire restoration (5)
I believe the answer is:
diner
This clue could be a double definition.
'cafe' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'new dire restoration' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'has' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for diner that I've seen before include "One eating a meal" , "(Person eating in) restaurant" , "Eater" , "Restaurant customer" , "American cafe" .)
