Simply Penang

I missed Penang's foods so much... Had Penang Prawn Mee Soup, Penang Char Kway Teow and Lok Bak at Simply Penang @ One Utama.. the first taste of the prawn mee soup was fantastic.. it is just so tasty.. The lok bak is stuffed with too much chicken meat.. the after taste was suffering.. Totally thirsty and need to drink lots of water.. It would be my first and last time to this resturant..

Hersey

I had cheese and caramel popcorn today.. is so yummy.. the last time when I had a caramel popcorn was at Gurney Plaza in Penang.. I also brought a bottle of Hersey chocolate syrup outside Universal Studio.. This will goes well with my 1.5 litre of vanilla ice-cream.. can't wait to eat it.. *YUMMY*

Beijing, China

Defenestrate

Defenestrate \dee-FEN-uh-strayt\, transitive verb:

To throw out of a window.

Quotes:-
Some of his apparent chums . . . would still happily defenestrate him if they caught him near a window
-- Andrew Marr, "No option bar the radical one", Independent, July 5, 1994

I defenestrated a clock to see if time flies!
-- Lane Smith, quoted in "Who's News", Time for Kids, September 25, 1998

A woman, driven to fury by the manner in which her lover prefers to lavish his attention on a match on the telly rather than her, starts to throw his possessions out of the window. He's finally moved to stop her when she tries to defenestrate his new Puma boots.
-- Jim White, "Budgets substantial enough to buy most of the clubs in the Endsleigh", Independent, April 6, 1996

Defenestrate is derived from Latin de-, "out of" + fenestra, "window." The noun form is defenestration.

CNY Feast 2010

Mellben Seafood 龙海鲜螃蟹王
232 Ang Mo Kio Street 22
Singapore 089671

I'm adding another disappointment to my list.. Mellben Seafood

Had our girl night out last evening for the CNY feast.. this year decision for Mellben was no different from the bad choice last year.  We had yu sheng, chilli crab, crab bee hoon soup, nai bai with mushroom, tofu with broccoli, yam ring with scallop..

Yu sheng - it was so dry (I think canton kitchen served better yu sheng)
Chilli crab- starch... maybe it is cold already
Crab bee hoon soup - good but Uncle Leong had the same crab bee hoon soup & there is no queue.
Cereal Prawn - i had the same thing in Malaysia during 2nd day of CNY and i feel it taste better
Nai bai with mushroom & tofu with broccoli - can't be a wrong dish.. cos it is only veg
Yam ring with scallop - not as good as Jumbo seafoods.. I feel the dip taste a little sour.

Ambiance would have to be in our consideration list next time.. cos it was so noise that we can't talk.  We actually have to pass message and words around :(

Overall you should only go to Mellben if you are craving for crab bee hoon soup.

Fractuous

I'm starting this label.. Word of the Day.. My resolution for 2010 to learn new word :) It was never successful as I've really bad memory..

Fractuous (FRUHK-choo-uhs)

- fruitful; productive

Quotes:

It had by now reached much beyond even that status to appear in our minds as a place sentient, actively helping these once forlorn and homeless sailors, presenting us with fructuous soil to grow our food, bountifully adding its own edible offerings, its waters supplying us with an abundance of fish.

-- William Brinkley, Last Ship

Theory does not provide us worthy Marching orders for a fructuous future, for theory in itself tells us nothing about how and when it is applicable.

-- Sheila McNamee and Kenneth J. Gergen, Relational Responsibility

Lagerfeld is talking about reducing his mighty Chanel shows to more intimate experiences. And this collection proved that such a fructuous collaboration with the couture hands deserves to be played out on a quieter note.

-- Suzy Menkes, "Chanel plays pipes, turning tiny tubes of tulle into couture", New York Times, July 1, 2008

Happy Chinese New Year 2010

Counting down for Chinese New Year 2010.

I'm extremely excited over it this year.. I'm all ready for this holiday :)

Gong Xi Fa Cai!!

Reunion Dinner 2010

We had the reunion dinner on 30 Jan 2010 at Canton Kitchen by Chef Kang.  We had yu sheng, poon choi and two dessert (lemon grass jelly with lime sorbet and manago with pamelo).. I like both the dessert.

Thank to Jolene for doing the reservation.. We had a private room.. can make all the noise we want, talk freely and without screaming at each other :)

Performance

Was just complaining about my job lack of challenge... and I had my performance reviewed with my manager yesterday.. the result is a WOW effect.. I'm a "top contributor with exceptional results" *bling, bling*

I've been with my current company for 02 years 04 months.. how time flies and I still recall the day when I'm so excited getting this job offer.. I've been getting really good grade over the past 2 reviews and it had always "above average contributions and outperforms most peers".. I cannot deny that my managers have been showering lots of care and concern to me.. even my managers in USA would send me personal notes every now and then asking me on how I'm coping.. and my manager-manager's boss (haha!!) would drop me thank you note, greeting.. I don't know why I'm so lucky when it come to people relationship..

Hope my luck continue this year :)

RE: Gala Christmas Party

I'm happy to inform you that the company Christmas Party will take place on December 23rd, starting at noon in the private function room at the Grill House. There will be a cash bar and plenty of drinks! We'll have a small band playing traditional carols... feel free to sing along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus! A Christmas tree will be lit at 1:00 PM. Exchanges of gifts among employees can be done at that time; however, no gift should be over $10.00 to make the giving of gifts easy for everyone's pockets. This gathering is only for employees! Our CEO will make a special announcement at that time!

Merry Christmas to you and your family,
Patty

RE: Gala Holiday Party

In no way was yesterday's memo intended to exclude our Jewish employees. We recognize that Hanukkah is an important holiday, which often coincides with Christmas, though unfortunately not this year. However, from now on, we're calling it our "Holiday Party." The same policy applies to any other employees who are not Christians and to those still celebrating Reconciliation Day. There will be no Christmas tree and no Christmas carols will be sung. We will have other types of music for your enjoyment.

Happy now?

Happy Holidays to you and your family,
Patty

RE: Holiday Party

Regarding the note I received from a member of Alcoholics Anonymous requesting a non-drinking table, you didn't sign your name... I'm happy to accommodate this request, but if I put a sign on a table that reads, "AA Only", you wouldn't be anonymous anymore. How am I supposed to handle this? Somebody? And sorry, but forget about the gift exchange, no gifts are allowed since the union members feel that $10.00 is too much money and the executives believe $10.00 is a little chintzy.

REMEMBER: NO GIFTS EXCHANGE WILL BE ALLOWED.

RE: Generic Holiday Party

What a diverse group we are! I had no idea that December 20th begins the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which forbids eating and drinking during daylight hours. There goes the party! Seriously, we can appreciate how a luncheon at this time of year does not accommodate our Muslim employees' beliefs. Perhaps the Grill House can hold off on serving your meal until the end of the party or else package everything for you to take it home in little foil doggy baggy. Will that work? Meanwhile, I've arranged for members of Weight Watchers to sit farthest from the dessert buffet, and pregnant women will get the table closest to the restrooms. Gays are allowed to sit with each other. Lesbians do not have to sit with Gay men, each group will have their own table. Yes, there will be flower arrangement for the Gay men's table. To the person asking permission to cross dress, the Grill House asks that no cross-dressing be allowed, apparently because of concerns about confusion in the restrooms. Sorry. We will have booster seats for short people. Low-fat food will be available for those on a diet. I am sorry to report that we cannot control the amount of salt used in the food . The Grill House suggests that people with high blood pressure taste a bite first. There will be fresh "low sugar" fruits as dessert for diabetics, but the restaurant cannot supply "no sugar" desserts. Sorry! Did I miss anything?!?!?

RE: The F*%^ing Holiday Party

I've had it with you vegetarian pricks!!! We're going to keep this party at the Grill House whether you like it or not, so you can sit quietly at the table furthest from the "grill of death," as you so quaintly put it, and you'll get your f*%^ing salad bar, including organic tomatoes. But you know, tomatoes have feelings, too. They scream when you slice them. I've heard them scream. I'm hearing them scream right NOW! The rest of you f*%^ing weirdoes can kiss my *ss. I hope you all have a rotten holiday!

I Know Why

I finally found the reason why I'm so depressed since the starting of 2010.. I think I'm lack of challenge in my job.. My work load is heavy as I can reply to 200 - 300 emails daily but it is the quantity but quality.. I feel that there is not much for me to learn in my current scope of work.. I need new level of challenge.. My colleague has says that one should be equip with the ability to learn, unlearn and relearn.. so maybe I should do that :)

Something Missing!

I feel something missing in my life.. and I seem to miss the past.. what is wrong with me!! People only move forward but I want to move backward.. strange! Am I mad? Maybe I'm getting old..

Strange Feeling

I felt a sudden lost today.. A very strong feeling.. Feel gulity & let

Twilight Saga: New Moon

I seem to fall in love with weekday movie.. I took a day off to rest and relax yesterday and managed to watch the Twilight Saga: New Moon for S$6 :)

The new moon focus seem to be on Jacob Black, the werewolf.. Even when the evil vampire Laurent returned for Bella, it was Jacob who protected and save her life. Edward in this movie, is weak and useless.. so different from the Twilight when he first appear as a handsome, cool, smart and super powerful vampire.. but still he is the star.. the dazzling "vegetarian'' vampire.. another character that I like of the Cullen family is Alice (sister of Edward). She is beautiful, sweet, happy and kind.. This episode ended with Edward saying "marry me" to Bella.. so I'm wondering what is going to happen in the next Twilight? Is Bella going to marry Edward? Is she going to turn into a vampire so she can stay at the same age with Edward forever?

My next target movie is Chipmunk part 2 :)



Synopsis:

After Bella recovers from the vampire attack that almost claimed her life, she looks to celebrate her birthday with Edward and his family. However, a minor accident during the festivities results in Bella's blood being shed, a sight that proves too intense for the Cullens, who decide to leave the town of Forks, Washington for Bella and Edward's sake. Initially heartbroken, Bella finds a form of comfort in reckless living, as well as an even-closer friendship with Jacob Black. Danger in different forms awaits.

Twilight

The first Twilight was shown in 2008 (I think!) but I only watched it 3 weeks ago on a DVD. I actually thought that it's a horror movie.. but NO.. it is a romance movie.. a love between a human and a vampire.. Edward Cullen is beautiful and cool..



Synopsis:

Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and Bella chooses to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But when unexpected visitors come to town and realize that there is a human among them Edward must fight to save Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.

红烧鱼头

Gosh.. I had 红烧鱼头 for dinner today.. A dish that I missed for at least 23 years.. It used to be a regular dish that my dad will order whenever we had zi char.. It consists of fish head, beancurd, veg, yam, mushroom etc.. they deep fried the fish head then braised with gravy.. it's so yummy :p

I hate this feeling

Feel very sad when I hear this news yesterday...

One of my friend had an operation to remove her womb.. It is not an easy decision for a women.. She is so brave.. I feel very sad for her cause she won't be able to enjoy motherhood.. I'll visit her tomorrow :(

sob.. sob..

Exhausted

I'm totally exhausted by RFP... hate the speed.. back and forth :(

Maybe I'm just tired of work..

Should I?

I'm turning crazy again..

I've been eyeing on a bag for years.. and occasionally when I'm "too" free.. My mind start wonder.. Initially there was so much to consider.. the size, the handle, the colour.. then the bag become so common on the street.. It is inexpensive.. yet I'm still wondering if I should get it..

Browse through the official website today.. and realised that you can customize it.. choose the size, handle length, colour, finishing of the metallic accessories and even embroidery your name.. it takes 3 weeks for delivery.. *bingo*

Should I buy it or not? Continue thinking..

Leisure Watch

Haiz.... I got a new Baby G as my current Baby G is not working.. I think the battery is flat :(

I actually prefer this one with pink face.. but it only have dual time and NOT world time.

So I choose the next best available.. which is a boring choice.. why can't they do world time in all Baby G? *ANGRY*

A Disturbing Incident

I witness an accident yesterday morning.. Right before my eye and
there was nothing I could do to stop it.. I can only scream and
obviously it didn't help.. The old lady who jay walked was first
knocked by a Toyota then followed by a silver cab.. both drivers tried
to avoid but it was difficult.. The drivers came out of the cars to
check if she was ok.. I saw her consious & show pain on her leg.. it
was a disturbing sign & I hope she's fine :(

My New Handphone

New adventure.. New struggle.. New challenge..

Got this phone by chance..

Story goes:
My contract expire on 06Sep.. It is a day I longed for when I got the motorola 2 months back.. but I didn't change my mobile phone.. Singtel customer service contact me on 08Sep to offer S$8 rebate off my phone bill as my contract is up for renewal. The discount is ongoing until I renewed my contract (which is getting a new phone).. I want to change a phone so the $8 doesn't look attractive to me.. I'm just lazy to make a decision and to go queue for a phone in Singtel.. Anyway there isn't many choices in the market too.. The option opens for me are HTC Hero, N97 or Iphone 3GS.. So I told the customer service that I want to change a phone and I want Iphone 3GS 16GB in black.. Thought this item was out of stock.. and to my surprise, he reply "yes", I have it and will deliver to your office on 14Sep.. AND I got this yesterday! :)

I'm still not ready for it.. so it is simply an empty phone (with no music uploaded, no idea how to use it, no casing)..

Insomnia

I just cannot sleep :( and I'm not interested in doing anything.. Just feel like lying on bed.. What's wrong with me? Stress? Excited?

Friends Forever

I got a sms from Didi last weekend.. He wants to meet up but I'm so damn busy with my work.. I just hope that my new colleague can join me soon.. So I can have my life back..

Didi is so cute.. He wants to make advance booking :) and he MISS me! I'm so touch..

Claypot Rice

Claypot Fun
902 East Coast Parkway
Playground @ Big Splash

I watched a TV program on the origin of claypot rice and was craving for it *drooling*..

I know there is a newly opened air-con claypot rice in East Coast so I decide to try it out on Sat..

We are the first customer (hehe!! kaisu.. cause no reservation allowed!!).. The moment you step into the shop.. it gives you a retro feels with the decor and music played.. even the plate, spoon and bowl come with the hen print.. you can smell the aroma of the sesame.. We ordered steamed chicken with mushroom claypot rice, yong tau foo and 高汤菠菜.. This shop sells Cantonese style claypot rice, it is different from the normal claypot rice that we eat.. there is no dark sauce.. There is a special house made sauce for the rice.. It is a light in colour sauce not really that salty or sweet.. it looks like sesame oil or light soya sauce.. even through it look pale.. it is very yummy!! Especially the burned rice :)

The foods are very tasty and price is reasonable except the waitress not very helpful.. Overall experience is 3/5 :)

I Waited

I waited for today to come by..

Today, I officially can changed to a new handphone and get rid of this motorola..

Unfortunately, I didn't go and buy a new handphone today :(

Cameron Highlands

A trip that I longed for.. Cameron Highlands.. Strawberry & tea :)

Kuala Lumpur

My stay at Hilton KL.. I've a nice deluxe room.. Beautiful and comfortable.. I relax in the marble bathroom with rainshower.. definitely more luxury then where the team stayed even though they had a suite but mine is a 5 stars hotel.. wahaha!! I want to go back again :)

Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen (2009)

Another nice movie.. Clap! Clap! It is kind of funny and the characters are so interesting.. I like all these characters.. bumblebee, autobots, the twin, the Decepticon wheelie and military officer.. I learn a new acronym FTJ "Fuel the Jet" in this movie.. hehe!!

Now Megatron is back seeking revenge and with Starscream and more Decepticon reinforcements on the way, the Autobots with reinforcements of their own, may have more to deal with then meets the eye.

In Memory of Michael Jackson (永远相伴)

"You Are Not Alone"

"永远相伴"

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

Chilli Crab

I'm craving for chilli crab again.. Since I was at Changi area.. so I decide to get a crab from Changi Village but forgotten which is the best one as there is an increase number of coffee shops on the same row.. My instinct told me "to go with the best crab photos"..



Qi Feng Seafood Restuarant LLP
Blk 5 Changi Village Road
#01-2021

The price is 1kg at S$32 and I ordered 1 crab.. it weight slightly more than 1 kg but the uncle only charge me 1kg.. As I was not hungry, I asked if he could pack the gravy and crab separately but the uncle says it won't taste nice.. In the end, he wrapped the outer layer with aluminium foil.. he claim that even if I eat it at 11pm, it would still be hot..

I brought a Delifrance baguette from Esso station.. toast it and it goes very well with the gravy.. The gravy is thick with lots of egg.. the crab is really fresh and the meat is tough.. *Oishi*

Budget Terminal

My first visit to Changi Budget Terminal.. it was crowded as there was a flight taking off to Chennai.. It is a very simple terminal with 2 food outlets (Mac and Hans) and a newspaper/magazine stand.. even the check in counter, paint, toilet look really plain..

I had a coffee, french fries and an apple pie at Macdonald.. realised that the garlic chilli is back.. haha!!

RIP Michael Jackson

Unbelievable! MJ is dead :x He dies of cardiac arrest.. sob.. sob..

This is the most shocking news that I heard this morning on radio while driving.. He was found fainted at his home in LA.. when I heard this.. my mind was thinking.. where the hell is his maid, body guards etc?? Could this be a scam? Maybe he was too stress by the series of comeback concert in London? Too sick of the paparazzi.. The pressure of child abuse accusation, marriage, fatherhood, money, sleep on hyerbaric oxygen chamber, his nose dropping off etc..

I was pondering.. maybe dead would be the best thing for him.. since he will be remember forever as the King of Pop!

My only regret is that I've never watch his live concert before & I'll never have the chance anymore..

Happy Birthday Jolene!

Happy Birthday, Jie Jie!!

Don't forget to give yourself a rest day!!

药材汤

I love soup..

This is called 滋润清补汤.. so it should be good for smooth skin or comfortable..

Ingredient:-
4 drumstick (remove the skin)
a pack of herb
a pinch of salt..

Finally! Had Okonomiyaki!

Finally had my long craving okonomiyaki with darling V.. haha!



Manpuku Japanese Gourmet Town
#03-16/17/18/19 Tampines 1

We had moon light special okonomiyaki with extra mayonnaise (ok! very fattening!), Sho-yu scallop ramen and 2 chicken wings.. The scallop ramen is so yummy! The okonomiyaki is so heavy that we end up feeling very sleepy..

After lunch, darling brought a dress and a spa oil..

Dim Sum Crave

Was driving to Takashimaya.. and thinking where should I go for lunch.. The heavily advertisement "Tian Jin Lou" cross my mind.. so I decide to give it a try..

Tian Jin (United) Restaurant Pte Ltd
22 Cavenagh Road
#02-01 Hotel Grand Central

It was crowded and because I didn't had a reservation.. I had to wait.. The guy managing the counter (not sure if he is the manager or supervisor) was very kind and keep assuring that there will be a seat soon..

There is a 50% discount on the dim sum for weekend.. we ordered a total of 9 items (xiao long bao, deep fried beancurb skin with shrimp, paper wrap chicken, century egg congee etc..), with chinese tea, pickles and wet towel.. the total bill is only S$28.70 (including taxes).. Although it is not the best dim sum but it is edible.. considering this kind of pricing and it is a fully air-con restaurant..

Overall services was not bad.. the waiter did warn us to place order at one-go and a re-order would take really long.. and the waitress who serve our table was nice and alert.. at least when I ask for a glass of water.. she didn't pretend not to see me.. haha!! :)

Happy Birthday to Me!

Happy Birthday to ME!!

Crazy Phone!

I've the most crazy phone for the next three months.. How am I going to survive on a motorola? I just can't sms as I like.. This stupid phone cannot take in all my stuff cos the memory is not as great as my N95 8GB.. It can't store my complete list of address book.. my friend's photo in address book.. my pic, video, music.. I can't even surf internet through mobile.. argh!! I feel like crying!!

I'm going through a TOUGH transition..

Happy Birthday, Baby!

Happy Birthday to Baby!!

We love you forever...

May & My Birthday Bash 2009

Wow.. time flies.. Remember I was just counting down for new year and now we are almost passing the half way mark.. And it is time for my birthday celebration..

As usual, birthday gal get to choose the venue.. May and I decided to go for seafood.. Ok, we are boring.. I admitted it and the gals admitted it too.. so next outing is definitely without Seafood, Japanese and Steamboat.. hmm.. really wonder what we are going to eat next and it will be Shirley's birthday..



Jumbo Seafood (Riverside Point)
30 Merchant Road
#01-01/02 Riverside Point

We've been here numerous times.. We ordered chilli crab, black pepper crab, deep fried sotong, drunken herb prawn, mini scallop on yam ring, bean curb with broccoli and seafood fried rice.. The drunken herb prawn is so yummy.. After dinner, we head to TCC at Clarke Quay for my fave manago yogurt freeze!! I believe it is not what we eat but the company, the noise and laughter that we made :)

I really treasure them.. and hope this kind of outing and our friendship will continue till we age..

My Crave for Japanese Foods

My first visit to young and savvy mall for the new generation - Tampines 1.. Total of 5 storey.. many eatery and shops.. A nicely designed mall.. easy to walk.. So I now prefer to shop in Tampines 1 over Tampines Mall and Century Square :)



Manpuku Japanese Gourmet Town
#03-16/17/18/19 Tampines 1

I walked floor by floor to search for the Japanese street.. At first, I expect it to be a street full of Japanese foods.. just like the Jurong Shopping Mall in Boon Lay but it ended up like the Shokudo Japanese Food Bazaar in Raffles City.. It is the same concept as the Marche and Village.. You are given a payment card and a tag to reserve your table.. The hall features 10 counters with sashimi, okonomiyaki, ramen, udon, dessert etc.. I had miso char siew ramen from (which I missed very much), sushi, BBQ (scallops, pork belly and unagi) and an apple juice.. I'm going to try okonomiyaki and maybe a cake or dessert on my next visit :)

New Start

For a new start, I've a new hair cut.. Next, perm eye lashes, medi &
pedicure, dentist etc..

Angels vs Demons

Thought I could own the cinema on weekday but it was crowded due to school holiday.. Anyway the movie ticket is only S$6.50 on Tuesday.. I spent another S$7 on nacho cheese combo with my fave coke light :O

Interesting movie.. you never know who is the bad guy till the end.. Initially I thought he was the bad guy but as the story goes.. he seem to be good.. do his best for the church and almost sacrifice his life for the people gathering outside St Peter's square.. In the end, he is the one behind the plot.. and he die terribly..



Synopsis:

Angels and Demons re-teams director Ron Howard and star Tom Hanks for the sequel to their international blockbuster adaptation of Dan Brown's novel -The Da Vinci Code. Although the book -Angels and Demons was written before the novel -The Da Vinci Code, the movie transpires after the events of the earlier movie. Hanks stars as professor Robert Langdon, the most respected symbologist in the United States, who uses his knowledge in order to decode a symbol on the skin of a murder victim. The clues put him on the trail of an international conspiracy involving the Catholic Church.
