Go across for something to eat (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turnover

'something to eat' is the definition.
(turnover is a kind of food)

'go across' is the wordplay.
'go' becomes 'turn' ('turn' can be a synonym of 'go'**).
'across' becomes 'over' ('over' can be a synonym of 'across').
'turn'+'over'='TURNOVER'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for turnover that I've seen before include "Gross value of sales" , "Total value of sales" , "Business - reversal" , "patisserie product" , "Business done" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
