The image captures an outdoor or semi-sheltered food stall, likely operating at night or in low-light conditions, illuminated by artificial overhead lighting. The scene is consistent with an informal street food establishment in an urban area like Makadara/Mji Wa Kale ward, Kenya. In the immediate foreground, a dark, circular wooden chopping board is present, covered with white shredded cabbage and other green vegetable scraps. To its left are larger, fresh pieces of white cabbage. Adjacent to the chopping board, a stainless steel deep fryer is visible, containing a rectangular food item immersed in hot oil, with a pair of metal tongs resting on its edge. To the right of the deep fryer, a large, empty turquoise plastic basin is positioned. A dark-skinned male chef, wearing a grey short-sleeved polo shirt, a blue apron bearing the text "Unga ni TAIFA" (Flour is Nation) with a map of Kenya logo, and white disposable gloves, stands centrally, actively engaged in food preparation. His right hand holds a utensil, possibly tongs, over a cooking area. His left hand is positioned near a gas burner connected to a blue gas cylinder visible below the counter. To the chef's right, a yellow plastic bowl holds a liquid, likely oil or batter. Below this, a stack of white, disposable paper plates, encased in clear plastic, rests on the counter. A tall, clear plastic beverage dispenser, filled with an orange liquid, is partially visible on the far right. In the midground and background, under a light-colored tent canopy supported by metal poles, several other individuals are present. To the far left, a person in a light blue shirt is partially visible, seated at a white plastic chair. To the left of the deep fryer, a woman dressed in a black garment, a light green headscarf (hijab), and carrying a brown shoulder bag, stands, observing the activity. Further back, a man in a dark t-shirt and light-colored pants stands. To the right, a woman with short dark hair, wearing a dark top, is seated at a white plastic chair. Multiple white plastic tables and chairs are scattered throughout the background, indicating a dining area. A red SUV is partially visible in the distant background, suggesting proximity to a street or parking zone.
