Pictures usually seen here right inside cooking area (7)
I believe the answer is:
gallery
'pictures usually seen here' is the definition.
(as in an art gallery)
'right inside cooking area' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'inside' indicates putting letters inside.
'cooking area' becomes 'galley' (galley can mean a kitchen).
'r' put inside 'galley' is 'GALLERY'.
(Other definitions for gallery that I've seen before include "Covered balcony" , "Building for works of art" , "Upper floor of theatre" , "Highest level in theatre" , "Long passage" .)
