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.

Lets share...... I'll have the Prawns, and you can have the rest :rofl
The picture looks fine, but not sure that I would serve all those ingredients like that in one bowl.
.... Skippy :D

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
