Fuss that's normal about exotic veal (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

palaver

'fuss' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'normal about exotic veal' is the wordplay.
'normal' becomes 'par'.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'exotic' indicates an anagram.
'veal' anagrammed gives 'lave'.
'par' placed around 'lave' is 'PALAVER'.

'that's' is the link.

(Other definitions for palaver that I've seen before include "Long tedious fuss" , "Confused and empty talk" , "Song-and-dance" , "Powwow - a lot of fuss" , "Commotion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
