Lettuce Wrapped Ciğ Köfte on Marble Cafe Table

Rich amber sunset light pours across a polished marble cafe table, illuminating a fresh serving of çiğ köfte nestled inside crisp green lettuce leaves. The textured, spiced meat mixture sits in a shallow ceramic bowl, its reddish-brown grains glistening under the warm glow. Golden hour rays slice through the window, casting soft shadows that stretch along the cool, veined stone surface. The turn of seasons is visible in the vibrant, unblemished lettuce wrapping, against the earthy tones of the dish. A subtle reflection of the window frame appears on the marble near the bowl's rim, at the base of the composition in the quiet intimacy of a Hangzhou evening.
