I hope Ross doesn’t beat me over the head with a big stick (for speaking too early) but shortly, the old Monkey Bar premises on the road to Becora will be opening as a furniture outlet with perhaps the classiest furniture in town imported from Surabaya in Indonesia.
I have had a look and it is good stuff. The old bar carpark is now a huge new showroom built in Timorese style. The gardens have been spruced up and all it needs is a little cafe to make it a very attractive destination. There’s obviously money in laundry.
Went by and you are right. The furniture is very nice and there is nothing like it around Dili.
