Gourmet dinner, Pork tendorloin...yum!
Took this photo at a high end restaurant, one of the most expensive meal I have ever eaten in Banff Springs. The restaurant had really dimmed lighting so I increased the ISO and lowered my fstop. Also set it on spot metering and on telephoto lens. This meal was gone fast!

Thanks for all the comments everyone. I definitely learned a lot! I'm a new photographer and I'm totally enjoying this stuff!!! Congrats to the winners!
You clearly knew what you wanted to capture here, but have been let down by the technicals. The light temperature is too warm (giving an orange colour)- this means the plate isn't white enough and the food colours don't have enough 'zing' in them. Also the focus is not crisp enough.
that said , at least you get to eat your props afterwards :- )
Food shots are hard. The DOF has to right on or it doesn't seem appitizing. I should be able to recognize what it is that being sold and I can't here. sorry.
I think that if you had carbon monoxided the food (you an buy them in canisters) it would have helped with the colour. Maybe better lighting would have made this yummy looking dinner pop too
I am sorry to say this does not look too tasty. You brought out some of the meat's texture, but the veggies look overcooked and I am not sure that I would like to know what's on the top left of the plate. Also note that the plate is not clean (left) and the wb looks a little warm.
