I believe the answer is:
distinguished
'noted' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'new diet using dish' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'diet'+'using'+'dish'='dietusingdish'
'dietusingdish' is an anagram of 'DISTINGUISHED'.
(Other definitions for distinguished that I've seen before include "Noble and dignified in appearance" , "Recognised - famous" , "Acclaimed" , "saw the difference" , "like a VIP" .)
