We got to know of this hood from Rahul Dhankani of The Lighthouse Cafe, another cafe owner who has used repurposed furniture extensively to do up his cafe. With Tiretti market on your right, walk down past it for a few yards until you come across a lane on your right that connects Poddar Court to BB Gangully Street.
All along the lane are rows of ramshackle furniture shops and workshops which the locals refer to as kabari dukan. You’ll not just find windows and doors, but also old cupboards and chests. If you’re lucky, you may also find some made of sturdy Burma teak! They have old short windows to glass and wood combination louvres, so you’ve got to have a keen eye to spot unique finds. Don’t shy away from haggling, but be warned that most of them lack hinges and frames. Priced mostly between INR 2,500 – 3,000, you can be sure to find your required size here.
