'on-line snack service?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'pound about right' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'pound' could be 'buffet' (I've seen this before) and 'buffet' is found in the answer.
'about' could be 'ca' (abbreviation for 'circa') and 'ca' is present in the answer.
'right' could be 'r' (abbreviation) and 'r' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for buffet car that I've seen before include "moving place to snack" , "where fast food is obtained?" , "dining carriage" , "catering venue" .)
