Chinese Kung Fu has many different

styles. Shaolin, Wutan,

Kunlun and Domei. And these famous names

spring from the associations started

years ago to foster brotherhood among

men. Some of the known styles have been

lost in history, such as cooking Kung Fu,

which was one of those mysterious styles

known only to cooks and chefs. As a

matter of fact, this style of Kung Fu was

created by a cook who worked in the

Emperor's palace kitchen hundreds of

years ago. As is well known, Chinese food

is the best in the world. Likewise the

style of cooking, which includes dozens

of recipes for all ingredients, broiling.

roasting, smoking and salting,

frying and steaming, coating and boiling,

barbecue and saute, baking and kneading,

toasting and grilling, poaching and

creaming. Like these various methods of

cooking, so they developed a unique

kitchen style of kung fu, different and

deadly.

like you who waste my time. Why are you

beating me up?You were his assistant, so

you should know where he is. Just who the

hell are you?

I'll give you just one more chance.

Canny fried rice.

Grandpa, I forget. Ohh

Sesame cakes. Oh, yeah.

Remove the covers.

huh hmm Now what's wrong?It's

burned.

Fancy meeting you?Shelly Zoo. I didn't

expect to meet you. Listen, Tan, how did

you manage to get out?I'm smart. That's

how. It was pretty easy. Oh, your

grandpa let you. Grandpa was sleeping, so

I escaped. How's your kung fu coming

along?Pretty good. Watch.

HuhWhat's that style?That's flying

shark's fin soup. Oh, that's the name of

some food. Right. It's cooking kung fu.

It's the best style. Oh, that's stupid.

It's silly. I've been training too. Here,

here's me.

Swaying kung fu.

And this movement's called the backside

technique. HuhYou call those moves kung

fu?Hey, watch my moves.

HuhOh, great. Much better than my

backside stuff. Very good. How about that?

Well, that's easy. I can do that. Huh

Go ahead. Watch me. I'm

doing it.

What?Doing what?

Rolling eyeballs. Meathead. That's

stupid. Every kid can do that.

OK, forget it. If you think you're so

smart. You're damn right I am. I can

combine my kung fu with my cooking

skills. Oh, is that so?

Sure. Oh, I cook my meal.

Sure. I'd like to cook something,

but I've got no food with me.

Oh. There. Follow me.

Where to?You see that pond?It's full of

fat fish. All you have to do is jump in

and catch them. HuhYou what?No

way. That pond belongs to someone. Right.

Oh, it belongs to my auntie.

But she never comes here to fish. Don't

worry about it. HuhAre you sure?You think

I'd lie?Right. Go on. Huh

There.

Here I go, then. Yahoo!

HuhHey, look, you see?Hey, see, there's

lots of fish in here. Here you are. Huh

Hey, you see?Here's another. Hey,

hey, look, lookYou see?Here. Hey,

look. Hey, come on. Here. Here

Cat. Hey, cat boy. Hey, don't.

Don't let it get away. Wait, grab it.

Grab it. Go on.

Hey, hey, there's plenty of them in here.

Lots of them. Hey,

this one's slippery.

Hey, come here. Well, you got. Damn you.

You can't get away from me. No, this

pond's full of them. Really crambling

fish. Oh, God, I've got another two. Oh,

that's fantastic. Hey, hey, hey,

heyYou ever seen fish like this, Lisa?

Those fish are mine. You're stealing.

What do you mean, your fish?Well, this

fish is my pond. You're putting me on.

This fish pond belongs to my friend

Shelley Souza. What do you mean?It's

their fish. Doesn't concern

you. So quit yelling at me, huh

Shelley Zoo. Shelley Zoo. Shelley Zoo.

Where are you?Hey, Shelley Zoo. Where the

hell are you, Mr. Wong?

I shall punish him as soon as he returns.

Don't you worry. Grandpa.

He's here. Tan. Tan. Come here.

Where have you been?I've been out

fishing. My life is stealing. Not me, no

way. Xiaoli Sue said the pod belongs to

his family. That isn't stealing.

Don't deny it. Grandpa,

why worry?It's only two fish. Only two

fish. How many do you want?Come and

apologize to Uncle.

Uncle, I'm sorry.

If you want some fish, just ask me. Don't

go around poaching. Heavens, if everyone

was like you. My fish will be gone and

I'll be ruined. Come tomorrow, you'll go

on with Frankl for three days.

It's not necessary. I insist he

deserves it. He must work.

God damn it. I have no luck.

BastardWhat'd you say?HuhHuh

I didn't mean you. What's your problem?

Hold it.

Uh, except for you and me. There's

no one else around here. You must have

meant me. Is that right?

It couldn't have been me. What do you say?

I've been practicing Kung Fu for so long.

I wonder just how useful it is. I think

I'll have a go this time, see if I can

fight. If you thought that I was swearing

at you, I'm afraid that's your problem. I

don't give a damn. Huh

BastardI'll teach you a lesson.

OK, go fight.

Oh,

bean curd.

Fish balls.

Shark's fin soup. Huh

What kind of crap are you playing at?You

don't scare me.

Huh Watch my flying

sharks Finn.

hmm

He's vicious. I'll show

him.

Beef and veg.

This is Bursna soup style.

Huh

And this is steaming bread.

Try this one. Sitting on the toilet.

Now, show some manners next time. I'll

have you eating sick.

Oh, must have been a mouse.

Bloody big rat.

Where the

hell have you been?What's that snake?

When it's like this, some bastard I met

argued with me, and then he beat me up.

Tom, idiot, you've forgotten what I

taught you.

Grandpa, please listen to me.

Ohh

Grandpa, let me explain. Hear me out,

won't you?Speak. What do you have to say?

The fact is, your Kung Fu is useless.

Useless.

When I fought him, I used to all the

styles you taught me, but he still

managed to beat me. So which

style did you use?Which style?I

used to all six cooking styles I

started cooking with.

Sweet and sour pork.

Steaming meatballs.

Beggar's chicken.

Slot spring rolls.

And frying chow fan.

And flying sharks fin.

Ohh Just like that.

That's right. No change in style. Well,

no change. I used all six continuously.

And the thug. Stupid.

Oh, he used this.

Well, anymore?Sort of. But then...

He kicked me hard and I hit the ground.

Good. You use his style and attack me.

Right.

Ohh Get up.

Grandpa. Come on. We'll keep on

fighting. I will use cooking kung fu.

Right.

You hurt?Yeah. Get the message?I

do. Yeah.

Try again.

Come on.

Had

enough. Want some more?No,

No more. Get up. Oh,

how'd you do it?Depends on

circumstances. You must be practical.

Watch the attack and choose your style.

There's a different style for each

situation.

There's more. Tell

me, was he using this style?

Not really. I was nervous. He

confused me and I mixed up my cooking

style with his. Oh, I understand.

That's fine. OK. Actually,

all Kung Fu styles use similar moves for

attack and defense. Tan Tan, practice

with me.

Cooking techniques.

You are.

Where's the king of ships?

Who the hell are you?Answer my question.

What do you

want him for?

You better talk.

Dad, I thank you. Don't

hit him. My father is sick. Just answer

my question. Where's the king of ships?

And I'll let you go. I won't

talk.

I beg you. Don't worry, my

father. I beg

you. Don't hurt him. Dad. Dad. Tell me or

I'll kill him. Dad, what did

you tell him?

Are you gonna talk?Dad!

Dad! Dad! Dad!

Dad!

Reporting, Sir. That's the bad news.

Monk Daddy refused to talk. We don't know

where the King of Sheps is.

He killed himself.

We must find that King of

Seth.

Mr. Who, you know, next week it will be

my birthday. What do you suggest for a

celebration?Oh,

you just leave it to me. You should

invite all of your friends and

relatives and their families.

I must have a big dinner.

Oh, the best food. But that's expensive.

I don't care. Money's no object.

In that case, how about

food fit for an emperor?

What's emperor's food?A king's dinner.

Oh, it sounds all right. Oh, yeah.

But we'll need an emperor's cook.

Don't you worry. Because I know every

cook in the country, even those in

foreign countries. 10 miles from

here at Shipfull Bridge, there lives the

King of Chefs. That's right. This man was

once the head chef at the Emperor's

palace. Because he was such a good cook,

the Queen insisted that he cook her food

and take the title King of Chefs. Oh, an

honour. And he's proud of it. But then

something happened. During one of the

Queen's dinner parties, the King of Chefs

had prepared a dish of scallops for the

Queen. Her favourite foods?

Well, she'd just taken a

mouthful when suddenly a

crunching sound was heard. My God, the

Queen had smashed a tooth. Oh my God,

some lead. How did a piece of lead get

inside the food?This was a serious

matter. The Queen was so angry she

wanted the king of chefs beheaded. But my

uncle Lilani intervened and spoke for the

cook. And in the end, the Queen spared

his life. But sapped him. And since

that time, he's never worked. He's sort

of retired. That's quite a

story. How come you know all the

details?Master, the reason is

that a relative of mine worked at the

palace. He was one of the Queen's

assistants. His name was Li Lan Ying.

He's my uncle. All right, what's

a joke?What's a joke,

Master, you see?This Li Liang

Ying was a eunuch. So how could he?Shut

up. You know you shouldn't interrupt when

I'm talking to master. Stupid. Yes,

he's right. Li Liang Ying's a eunuch.

So how could he produce a family?Oh, yes.

But you see, Mother explained to me

before she died that he was my uncle's

cousin's brother-in-law. OK, OK,

just get me the coke. I don't care about

the cost. Oh, master, don't worry.

I'll sort it out. I'm an expert at this

business. It's no problem. You'll see.

Are you OK?

You didn't eat it

that day. You obviously want a taste of

the day, don't you?No, that depends on

how hungry you are.

You so got a big mouth, kid.

Different, huhI'm not quite as slow as

the last time. Come on. You

bastard

Ohh

You had enough?

No.

You're still using the style.

yeah

I'm afraid it won't do you much good. Why

don't we see about that?

Here,

watch my tiger fell.

oh

That was called the tiger eats the meat,

see?

Is it the dumpfish time?

Yeah.

Yeah

How is that?Well, does it taste good?

It's called the dog eating shittechnique.

It

stinks.

Grandpa, morning. Why didn't you practice?

Where the hell have you been all morning?

Nowhere much. Went for a walk, that's

all. He's in here. He's in the place.

He's in here. Who are these men?Do you

know who they are?No?

No idea.

That's him. He's the one.

Mister?What's the matter?And who

the hell are you?HuhHe's my grandpa. Huh

Grandpa?You

bastardSo you have to use your grandpa to

protect you. If he's done wrong,

please forgive him. I'll deal with him.

What?Forgive the swine. Did you

hear that?He's asking for it. I

think he's a fool. Oh,

you should teach him to behave himself.

I'm sorry about this. He's a nuisance.

I give you my word. He'll be punished.

Grandpa. Well, I'm not sure.

Lady's not good enough. I think we'd

better do it ourselves right now.

Grandpa, you must learn to

fend for yourself. Grandpa.

No, you's calling for help. You're on

your own.

Grandpa. Grandpa. Yesterday was

vegetables. Today, try some meat

chicken dishes.

Right. Drunken chicken.

Well, chicken.

Chicken weight, chicken breast, the legs.

Ohh Soy sauce,

chicken.

Chuck your chicken's head off.

Hey, soy sauce chicken tastes good. Some

chicken. What kind of

chicken are you?Top of the rooster. Big

shot.

Try my hand then.

OhhYou don't like the taste of chicken?

Try some duck,

huh

Donald

Duck! Donald Duck!

Grab a taste of my leg.

Ohh

Grandpa,

Tan, where are you going to grow up?

You're always making trouble, always

sneaking off out. You never concentrate

on practicing Gung Fu. You're damn lazy.

I've perfected the cooking Gung Fu style,

but it's taken many years of studying and

training. Perhaps it's not a famous

style, but it's very different from other

techniques. To learn it, you must

practice and train all the time. You

never do. You disappoint me, boy.

Grandpa, it's wrong. I'm sorry.

SorryYou're always saying.

Sorry, but you never change.

You're lazy. Useless.

Get up now. Yes.

Are you the king of chefs?

Not me. Never heard of him. You better

look elsewhere for your man.

Emperor Kun's uncle's cousin's

brother-in-law's cousin is my master. He

sent me to search for you. He requests

a favor from you.

Hey, you heard him. You got the wrong

man. I haven't. I'm right.

My master's heard that the King of chefs

is the best cook in the country. He begs

you return with me and prepare his

birthday dinner. He's ready to pay you

well if you come and cook for him.

Yes, Sir.

He's asked me to give you these choice

wines. What's more, he'd like you to

become his permanent cook.

I'm not interested. Take your wines and

get out of here. Well, I

just for a birthday dinner. Why?Grandpa's

cook for the Emperor. Oh, so I was

right. The Emperor's food. You are the

king of chefs. Master wants you to

entertain his guests in his birthday

banquet with some food. You serve the

Emperor. Please, Sir,

come back and cook for us. Cook food. Who

are you?I thought I told you once. Well,

I'll tell you again. I am.

He's my uncle's cousin. Listen,

you're the king of chefs. We can both

make some profit from this.

Just look at this gold here. How'd you

like some of it?Get out.

But you. Hey, if you don't leave

right now, I'll have to kick you out. Oh,

hey, hey, hey

Better think about it and wise up. You're

stupid. Get smart. Will you use your

brains?It's OK to pick me out. But

remember, the Emperor's my master's

friend. Get him out of here.

You'll regret this. Such stubborn,

foolish action. I have no choice. I'll

have to use force.

HmmYeah, then. Right.

Mr. Tao. Oh,

hello. Good day. Hello, Mr.

Chow. You better be careful.

Why?What for?Oh, haven't you heard the

news of the cooking murders?It said the

killers after those who cooked for the

Emperor, and he's vowed to kill them all.

No cook will be spared. Really. Are you

sure?Just recently, the cook at the

Fortune restaurant, Taichin and the one

at Shampoo Town restaurant. They were

both murdered and it said. The killer

is after another coke.

Oh, thank you. I'm grateful.

Where you at?

You calling me?

Now tell me, what were you saying to that

man over there?The one dressed in blue.

I said nothing. Nothing

My master. I said nothing.

You kill

me.

So it's you. You are the one who murdered

the emperor's cooks. Bara is the king of

chefs. Who the hell are you?

Hi.

Hey, wait.

Hold it. Leave him alone. Can't you see

he's had enough?Bastard

Must you be so unreasonable?

Listen, then. Would you be satisfied when

you killed him?Are you related to him,

Ken?I'm not. Don't even know him. Young

man. Thank you for your help. Hey, get

get out of here now. I'm warning you.

Mr. Brent, you better go.

Forget it. I'm not scared.

I'll sort you out. All right.

Cooking style. That's right. And I also

know how to use it. Why'd you learn that

style of Kung Fu?

That's my business. Come on and fight.

Hot.

Son, you're no match for him.

Listen, friend, go get some help and tell

your master. Go on.

If you don't, it'll be too late. Leave

me. Hurry. With help, I might stand a

chance. Otherwise I'll die. No, you're

wasting your time.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Grandpa. Grandpa.

Tantum, who did this to you?The guy

wearing a failed hat. He's about to kill

the Emperor's cooks. And where is he now?

Take me there quick.

Over there. Ah

HuhLook, what are those

marks?Tantan. It's best that you

don't concern yourself with this. What do

you mean?I must be concerned. He died

because of me. Why is that?

If I hadn't fled, he wouldn't be dead.

Do you know who this man is?Who is he?

He's your uncle.

HuhUncle.

Grandpa. I want to know the whole story.

During my life, I've only had two

objectives. The first one is to look

after you and teach you Kung Fu.

The second one is to find out who

murdered your parents. Murdered my

parents. 20 years ago, I was

a cook in the palace kitchen. The queen

liked my food and she made me the king of

the chefs.

She liked to serve the Empress special

food to all her guests, and on one

occasion I cooked her favorite dish of

scallops. Well, I don't

know how it happened, but there was a

piece of lead and the Queen shattered her

tooth. She was furious. She had me and my

assistants thrown out of the palace. Your

uncle was my chief assistant then.

Later on, as I returned home.

You were just one month old, and I was

afraid the killers might return. So I

carried you away, gave us a new name, and

came here in the hope that you would grow

up and take revenge. So who murdered my

parents?Why should they want to kill them?

Grandpa, can you tell me?

I'm afraid not. I don't know who did it,

and I don't know the reason.

Ted, Ma,

I'll avenge you. I promise you, I'll

take revenge. Tanton,

I'll not stop you. I avenge you.

Who

killed my father?Who killed my mother?

Who was it?Why?What for?

Dantan, take it easy. You

practice more, then take revenge.

I chose to stay here because it was safe.

I thought no one would find us and you

could practice. But suddenly that fat guy

turns up, your uncle is killed, and

it's not safe anymore. We'll have to

leave this place. No, we don't. They

don't frighten me. They come here and

we'll fight them. I'm sure I can beat

them with my cooking Kung Fu. No, we're

not afraid. But because you want your

revenge, your style must be perfect. We

can't take any risks. Master, we have to

find a place to stay with my assistant.

It's here. This place. This is his house.

He was an assistant cook with me at the

palace.

That's strange. Come on.

Hey, Grandpa, something wrong?I'm sure he

wouldn't leave the house. I'm sure he'd

have told me if he was planning to leave.

Maybe. But if he was in a hurry, then he.

Unless he.

Grandpa, ignore them. Come on.

King of chefs.

What is it?Who are you?Somebody wants to

kill a pair of you. Oh, I'd

be interested to know who wants to murder

us. We carry out orders. We're paid to

kill. Oh, all right. What's your

name?I am the chief of the

underworld. I'm the devil's disciple.

2 killers, Grandpa. Let me handle

them.

Who sent you after us?You go to hell.

Grandpa!

Tatan!

Tatan, be careful.

Ohh

Pampa,

I'm

all

right.

Grandpa, Grandpa,

Grandpa,

Grandpa. Grandpa, are you all

right?

Grandpa. Grandpa.

Speak to me, Grandpa.

Grandpa.

I got to find out who this man is and why

he wants us killed. He might also be the

one who killed my parents. Grandpa,

you can't die now. I'll

take good care of you, get you on your

feet again. Grandpa, you take it

easy. I'll practice real hard, and then I

can take revenge for my parents.

Grandpa, your medicine.

Grandpa, you feeling better now?

Yes. Thank you. Grandpa. Oh,

it will take some time for my

wound to heal. You

must be good in practice.

I will. You better rest now. I'll go and

practice.

Grandpa.

Grandpa, you shouldn't be up yet. Oh,

it's all right. Has your gongfu improved?

It has. My Gung Fu's much better. I've

invented a new technique using the killer

style and mine together. It's so

powerful. You watch.

You must not use your Gung Fu so

freely. Not unless it's vital.

It's too powerful.

Grampa.

Grandpa, how are you feeling now?

Not too bad.

Grandpa, can you tell me why the man

with a hat wants to kill you so badly?And

why did he kill uncle too?Do you think

he's the one that killed my parents?

Yes, I do. Why is that?

Well, son, the wound on your uncle's neck

is identical to the one. That killed your

parents. Oh, Grandpa, you mean this man

with the hat?He

killed my uncles. Do you know why?No,

son. I don't really know why. I won't

make him pray for these murders. Cantan,

do you remember his Kung Fu technique?I

do. The hat will be

useful. Copy his style when

you attack. He will not

expect it. But remember

this. Don't let him get near you.

Don't let him get to your throat.

I've almost succeeded.

Dad, Marv,

if you're listening, please guide. Help

me to find this merciless killer.

Hang up, chaps.

Who are you?

Been a long time. Do you remember me?

I've been searching for you for 20 years.

We once worked together in the palace

kitchen. Remember, the Queen wanted to

host a banquet. Li Liangying recommended

you. After that, the Queen paddled

your king of shitsI was furious, so I put

a piece of lead in a plate of scallops.

It made the Queen lose a tooth. It was

you. That's right. I was hoping

the Queen would kill you, but Li Liang

asked her to forgive you. She pardoned

you and spared your life. You killed my

son and daughter-in-law. They were only

two of the many I've killed. You cool

bastardAt last

I've found you. You won't get away this

time. I'm going to kill you, you bastard

I've succeeded. I've succeeded.

Grandpa. Grandpa. Grandpa. I've

succeeded. Grandpa. Grandpa. I

got it now.

Grandpa. Grandpa.

Grandpa. Grandpa. Grandpa.

Grandpa. Grandpa.

Hold it. Stay where you are.

Hold

it. Stop right there. Damn you.

Did you kill my grandpa, you bastardSo

it's you, you little son of a bitch

You want to kill me with your Kung Fu?

Cooking Kung Fu?

My gung fu will make mincemeat of you.

I doubt that.

J handcuffs.

Bastard trying to escape. What the hell

for?I want to kill.

Bastard you're no match for me.

Small fry. You fight pretty good.

Well, naturally, I trained hard.

Pity you're gonna die soon.

Ah

I've killed you. Grandpa, Dad, Ma,

now you can rest in peace.
