Alas, no. There is no "parent objects" like this.

Another change you have to be aware of: What happens if a shop closes
down and then another shop opens up? This could be mapped by someone
just changing the name (and possibly amenity/shop) tag rather than
delete the object and create a new one. So the same node & node id would
change in your database.

The suggestion of looking for "a fast food restaurant named McDonalds
near the place" will solve that problem.
