Definition: "Request"

This is a container clue - one word or set of letters goes inside another word to form the answer.

Look for a word meaning 'put away' (as in food) that goes inside a word meaning 'foyer' or entrance hall.

Answer: ENTREATY | EAT (put away/consume) goes inside ENTRY (foyer/entrance) to give EN-EAT-RY = ENTREATY (request)
