1a Burgundy - 'grub' (food, back) + 'un' (Fr. "a") + 'D(or)y' (filleted)
18a Ignominious - anag 'gin' + 'i' (one, in) 'ominous' (not promising)

1a.Burgundy- grub(food)reversed + un(a French)+d(or)y

[Captain2]

Food = Grub (back) + Un + d(or)y

Many thanks! I sort of thought of ignominious but couldn't thunk why!
