Said takeaway is for powerful Cretan patriarch (5)
I believe the answer is:
minos
'patriarch' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for minos that I've seen is " raincoats".)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
