Bold to take starter of langoustine and honey (7)
I believe the answer is:
darling
'honey' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'bold to take starter of langoustine' is the wordplay.
'bold' becomes 'daring' (I've seen this before).
'to take' is an insertion indicator.
'starter of' says to take the initial letters.
The first letter of 'langoustine' is 'l'.
'daring' enclosing 'l' is 'DARLING'.
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for darling that I've seen before include "Australian tributary of the Murray River, sweetheart" , "Term of endearment" , "Pet" , "Film with Julie Christie and Dirk Bogarde - sweetheart" , "Victorian heroine" .)
