Fellow at lunchtime gets bread (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chapati

'bread' is the definition.
(chapati is a kind of bread)

'fellow at lunchtime' is the wordplay.
'fellow' becomes 'chap' ('chap' can be a synonym of 'fellow').
'lunchtime' becomes 'i' (1pm could be I on a clock with Roman numerals).
'chap'+'at'+'i'='CHAPATI'

'gets' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chapati that I've seen before include "Piece of bread (Indian)" , "What Indian waiter might bring" , "Unleavened bread of the subcontinent" , "Indian food" , "I may be taken in with Indian" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
