Goes down to see some items in the kitchen department (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sinks

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'goes down' is the definition.
(sinking is a kind of going down)

'some items in the kitchen department' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to see' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sinks that I've seen before include "Scuttles" , "Declines markedly" , "Basins" , "Dips" , "Goes down" .)
