One leaves Chicago possibly around noon for pasta (7)
I believe the answer is:
gnocchi
'one leaves chicago possibly around noon for pasta' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'one leaves chicago possibly around noon' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'a' (a thing is one thing).
'leaves' suggests deleting specific letters.
'possibly' is an anagram indicator.
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'noon' becomes 'n' (abbreviation for noon).
'chicago' with 'a' taken out is 'chicgo'.
'chicgo' is an anagram of 'gocchi'.
'gocchi' going around 'n' is 'GNOCCHI'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gnocchi that I've seen before include "Dough" , "Pasta or potato dumplings" , "Flour, semolina or potato dumplings" , "simple meal?" , "Italian potato dumplings" .)
