    Azzaro said it. My appetite is up too. :D

    IMHO...
    You've got some shadows that are not spicing up your image. Some backlight needed to fill. Plus I don't get a wet feel to the image. Food seems dry. No slight pool of juice. Just a couple of minor thoughts. :D

    Also you might try knocking down the bright highlights from your light source with an intervening "curtain"
    before the light hits your subject. I do this by hand holding white sheets of paper in the way. Its much
    like "dodging" if you know what I mean. I find it works great for the highly reflective surfaces I take
    pictures of on a light table.

    All good points.
    Thanks Michael. I'll try the curtain idea next time and maybe spritz a little olive oil on the food to make it look wetter
