After three months of closure, the Lindt Chocolate Café at the centre of the Sydney Siege is set to reopen in a matter of days. The scene of one of Australia’s most infamous terror attacks, workers at the Sydney CBD café said the café told The Daily Telegraph the shop will reopen by the end of the week. The café made headlines around the world in December when Islamic extremist Man Haron Monis held staff and patrons hostage there for about 17 hours. Repairs are currently under way at the Martin Place cafe after it was damaged during the siege that claimed the lives of cafe manager Tori Johnson and barrister Katrina Dawson in December.
