Nasty but sweet :)
I would have not grasped the concept by lookign at the photograph, perhaps because I couldn't tell what the food exactly was but I do like the concept now that I know.
With regards to the technical aspect, it would be best to try and mitigate the harsh reflections. You can do that by using a diffuser or sometimes simply changing your camera angle.
Neither the photo nor the title conveys the idea of family. A bit noisy also and not a wholly interesting subject. Nice colours but a low-scorer for me, I'm afraid.
It's your first challenge Ivy, I'm very proud of you for entering, and because of this I'm going to give you an 8. Keep entering, it's only going to make you a better photographer. Keep shooting. Lots of love. Roman.
