Is it OK to photograph your food?

At the start of 2013 the debate on whether it's OK to take photographs of your food in restaurants seemed to swing towards a definite "no". In New York some smaller establishments, such as Momofuku Ko, have banned photography. An article on Esquire's blog provided a stern list of reasons why pausing for a photo shoot before eating is not OK, the most surreal being that it's an affront to the laws of thermodynamics (because it makes your food get cold), the most sensible being that your photos will probably be rubbish anyway.
