Dine with doctor wearing fur, a source of delight (4,3,5)
I believe the answer is:
meat and drink
'a source of delight' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'dine with doctor wearing fur' is the wordplay.
'dine' becomes 'eat' (eat a meal).
'with' becomes 'and'.
'doctor' becomes 'd' (eg in PhD, Doctor of Philosophy).
'wearing' indicates putting letters inside.
'fur' becomes 'mrink' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'eat'+'and'+'d'='eatandd'
'eatandd' going into 'mrink' is 'MEAT AND DRINK'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
