Can someone please explain why there are no hot Dominican green chillies available here in the DR ? We can buy them in Canada anytime. Just find it very strange. Is it a seasonal thing ?
So when are you making them available to us? No boasting allowed if you're not offering, that's hospitality 101! ☺️ Read More

Home improvement store in Punta Cana area? by kevlion88
