Pressure on Alice working on takeaway menu (6)
I believe the answer is:
plaice
'takeaway menu' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'pressure on alice working' is the wordplay.
'pressure' becomes 'p' (abbreviation**).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'working' indicates anagramming the letters.
'alice' is an anagram of 'laice'.
'p'+'laice'='PLAICE'
'on' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for plaice that I've seen before include "Brown flatfish" , "Flat fare" , "Type of fish" , "Location of the fish" , "Position the fish, we hear" .)
