The Trial of Maximo Bonga: The Story of the Strangest Guesthouse in South East A
There was someone standing further along the beach, facing out to sea. An old man dressed in... I blinked... battle fatigues? Second World War U.S. by the looks of the helmet. I looked on for a moment, squinting into the sun-streaked coconut smoke. 'You won't like Bonga's Guest H...ouse, I can tell you now. Maximo Bonga...' said the fisherman's wife. She was lost for words, shaking her head. 'Maximum Bongo?' I asked.'Bonga,' she said. 'It means flamboyant.' Based on a true story On one of South East Asia's most remote beaches, a young woman's body is found. The corrupt local police think they have found the perfect fall guy in Maximo Bonga - cantankerous World War Two veteran and owner of the weirdest guesthouse in town. But unbeknownst to them, an unlikely friendship has been forged between Maximo and John, one of the boarders of Maximo's guest-house-cum-boot-camp, where an old machine gun and camouflaged mantraps stand guard, sandbags form fences and a tyrannical pet rooster terrorises the guests. Along with an eccentric bunch of modern-world rejects, John sets out to defend the old soldier in a kangaroo court set up at the local cockpit, in a paradise like no other.Read less

Everyone in my neighborhood loves these!
Size: 16 OZ
When we find an especially great fresh food product on Amazon, the neighbors spread the word. These strawberries area always all ripe (no green ones or rotten ones hiding in the bottom), and delicious. Great price, too. I use them in salads, smoothies, and fresh fruit snacks.

Upon arrival I looked at them and didn’t think they were going to be good. Turned out they’re delicious. They were sweet, huge , and very fresh.

La freza es la frescura de las frutas
Size: 16 OZ
Strawberries are not merely a natural dessert; they are one of the densest sources of antioxidants and Vitamin C available. Their perfect balance of acidity and sweetness makes them the ideal ally for those seeking low-calorie energy.

Tastes Like Banana Pudding and Dunkin Banana Flavor!
Flavor Name: Banana Bread, Size: 25.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I don't know why someone would buy this expecting it to taste like real bananas like come on ppl lol. The only way to attain a syrup that tastes like real banana bread is to make it at home. This is an artificially flavored syrup so obviously it tastes that way! I have made banana bread syrup (more like a sauce) at home and it is delicious, highly recommend!! But this is way more shelf stable and tastes amazing in an iced latte as well! Different than home made but still good. To me this tastes like banana pudding mix which also has a fake banana taste. It also tastes EXACTLY like the new Dunkin banana flavored syrup which is what I was looking for! I use 1.5 tbsp syrup, a little vanilla paste, 2 espresso shots and 2 percent milk with plenty of ice. I like keeping my latte calories below 200 and not super sweet tho so you can up it to 2 tbsp. The cals in this are not terrible, 70 cals for 2 tablespoons. Usually my syrups have 50-60 cals for only 1 tbsp so I'm pleasantly surprised this is a little lower. I bought a second bottle because I'm afraid this is a limited release lol.

⭐ DaVinci Gourmet Classic White Chocolate Syrup Review
Flavor Name: White Chocolate, Size: 25.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The DaVinci Gourmet Classic White Chocolate Syrup is a must‑have if you love café‑style drinks at home. It delivers that rich, creamy white‑chocolate flavor without being overly sweet, and it blends beautifully into both hot and cold beverages. Whether you’re upgrading your morning latte or adding a touch of sweetness to desserts, this syrup is incredibly versatile and delicious. 🍫 Why This Syrup Stands Out Smooth white‑chocolate flavor: Creamy, mellow, and perfectly balanced — not artificial or overly sugary. Great for hot & iced drinks: Mixes easily into lattes, iced coffees, frappes, hot chocolate, and even milkshakes. Barista‑quality texture: Silky and consistent, making it easy to drizzle, blend, or layer. Large 25.4 oz bottle: Plenty of syrup for daily use, entertaining, or experimenting with new recipes. Versatile beyond drinks: Works beautifully in baking, frosting, oatmeal, and dessert toppings. ☕ Perfect For Homemade lattes and cappuccinos Iced coffees and cold brews White‑chocolate mochas Dessert drizzling Smoothies and milkshakes Holiday drinks and creative recipes It adds that cozy café sweetness without overpowering the drink. 🔍 Things to Keep in Mind Because it’s a classic syrup (not a sauce), the flavor is lighter and more mixable — great for drinks, but those wanting a thick drizzle may prefer a white‑chocolate sauce. A little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and adjust to taste. ⭐ Final Thoughts The DaVinci Gourmet Classic White Chocolate Syrup is a creamy, smooth, and incredibly versatile addition to any coffee or dessert routine. It elevates homemade drinks with a professional touch and adds just the right amount of sweetness. If you love white‑chocolate‑flavored coffees or want a reliable syrup for everyday use, this bottle is an excellent choice.
