Mate love your thread, been following closely, always interested to see the lesser known local dishes.
Anyway like your shots, too often do I see food bloggers and amateur photographers use way too shallow depth of field which washes the whole image out and ruins what feeling they are trying to create. Though you've got all that in check
Just watch sometimes, when food is cropped too tight, it takes out a certain perspective, which makes the food loose its appeal in a photograph, particularly a dish like kway teow or fried rice. The first page where you dont crop as tight with the wanton noodles, and bring the soup into the shot works alot better than cropping tightly with dishes like that.
Try also mixing your angles up, certain plates of food photograph better in different angles, birds eye in particular can look great, especially for something with lots of different shapes, sizes and colors in it.
Hope this
Food by Me - a set on Flickr can give you a reference to some of the different styles Im talking about, Im by no means an expert, in fact these shots are just snapped in natural light purely for my own resume and staff reference.
Keep up the tasty posts
