Puts out a seat and has a meal (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eats

'has a meal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'puts out a seat' is the wordplay.
'puts out' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'put out' mean this).
'seat' with letters rearranged gives 'EATS'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for eats that I've seen before include "Devours - food" , "worrying" , "(Consumes) food" , "Takes nourishment" , "Is not any faster" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
