Food connoisseur (7)
I believe the answer is:
gourmet
'food connoisseur' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for gourmet that I've seen before include "Discriminating eater" , "Food lover" , "Connoisseur of good food and drink" , "bon viveur" , "One has expert knowledge of food and wine" .)
