Eg seafood dish and coffee served in Puerto Rico (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

platter

'eg seafood dish' is the definition.
(as in a seafood platter)

'coffee served in puerto rico' is the wordplay.
'coffee' becomes 'latte' (I've seen this before).
'served in' indicates putting letters inside.
'puerto rico' becomes 'pr' (abbreviation for Puerto Rico).
'latte' put within 'pr' is 'PLATTER'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for platter that I've seen before include "Shallow serving dish" , "Large shallow dish" , "old record?" , "Large flat serving dish" , "Salver" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
