Fine dishes (5)
I believe the answer is:
china
'fine dishes' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for china that I've seen before include "It used to be called Cathay" , "country out east" , "It's fragile, though its economy is not!" , "The most populous country in the world" , "Beijing's country" .)
