After reading “Best coffee shops to take OOTD photos” from ootdindo.com, me and Elke picked GoodHood Coffee + Kitchen from the list to visit. This cafe is located at the Dipo Business Center, Gatot Subroto (It took me 2,5 hours to get here! Curse you traffic jam!)
It is no doubt a photogenic place to take OOTD photos. There are murals on the wall and big windows that alows light to come in (obviously a great lighting for the pictures). If you wonder which spots are good, just ask the waiter and they’ll recommend you a great spot to take a photo. Don’t forget to take a picture infront of the cafe because it has a white brick wall a.k.a my favorite type of wall (seriously, it makes a great background). We were lucky the place was empty cause it was after lunch time in a weekday. So we can take alot of photos without people disturbing.
Besides the photogenicness of the cafe, it’s a coffee shop afterall so I ordered cafe latte (Rp 37.000) and Red Velvet cake (Rp 39.000). The coffee was nice, but the odd thing was that the red velvet cake was served warm (I don’t understand the essence of this cause it’s usually served cold).
The second place that we visited was Gastromaquia, located at Senopati. It was a really cozy and inspirative place with lots of D.I.Y crafts as their decoration. My favorite one was the silver spoon and fork chandelier, a simple yet creative piece of art. There were also cute patterened pillows lined up on the sofa. Love it (and wanna steal it! *Just kidding*). This place makes me wanna make my own crafts! It even has a reading area with books that you could borrow, definitely a recommeded place for your “me time”.
I only ordered Bubble Gum Gastro (Rp 42.000), a mocktail with bubble gum syrup, mix strawberries, and apple juice. What surprises me that it uses molecular gastronomy techniques to make small pearls that pops in your mouth!
This places are definitely a must-visit if you wanna take good ootd pictures. Happy OOTD photo hunting!
