Take food from tea table (3)
I believe the answer is:
eat
'take food' is the definition.
(to eat is to have some food)
'from tea table' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'EAT' is hidden within 'tea table'.
(Other definitions for eat that I've seen before include "Worry" , "Be corrosive" , "Bite, chew and swallow" , "Gobble up" , "Make food disappear" .)
