I haven't done them in many years, but when I did it
was typically with a view camera in 4X5, or
occasionally with a Hasselblad. For lighting, it was
always big studio strobe lights, usually with umbrella
reflectors, or softboxes. I haven't seen anyone doing
much in the way of food shots with 35mm.
