I like it for the most part. The textures on the bags is delicious.

My critical comment is that the the background doesn’t work well for me. While it gives context, it also distracts. Perhaps a blur on the background would solve it.

I agree with Justan. Looks to me as if a fire engine or something is parked back there.

I also think a shallower DOF would've worked better.  However, I think you captured some excellent light, and as Justan said, the textures are excellent!
