The chicken taste good, juicy that had been soak with the soy and a bit of sesame sauce, and the 'Siew Yuk’ nothing to boost about~ RM6 for 2 person.

Surely, I have no complain about this place as it is cheap yet the service is fast.

Confucius

Posted by Taufulou | Labels: , , | Posted On at 10:32 PM

Genre: Drama/ Biography
Another Chinese movie about China's history which I think its very good, as for me I still want to know more about China history but there is too much and yet its in chinese which I do not know how to read.

This movie is about Confucius was one of the very first Chinese that created books, train people how to read and write, and believing in a society that ethics is very important in a state harmony. Then he got chace off by his own countryman and he wondered around China to spread his teaching.

To me, its not a bad movie as I understand more who is Confucious the great man.

Genre: Action/ Crime/ Thriller

John Travolta had always been quite yeng in the movie but this movie suddenly give me the feeling of his old movie Saturday Night Fever when he was still very very young, maybe because of the best area of uncut languages that he is using.

As John Travolta is one of something like a secret agent hire to act against terrorist but his look does not justify that he works for the government, and he is specially hired by the French Government to trace the trails of terrorism and while that he work with one of a local agent.

Action packed movie, very nice. Worth a watch to see all the shooting and bazooka style hunting.
