Presenting chop recipe in retail area (8,6)
I believe the answer is:
shopping centre
'retail area' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'presenting chop recipe' is the wordplay.
'recipe' indicates an anagram.
'presenting'+'chop'='presentingchop'
'presentingchop' with letters rearranged gives 'SHOPPING CENTRE'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shopping centre that I've seen before include "Marketing complex" , "Place with many retail outlets" , "mall" , "Where there are many stores" .)
