The Wait Is Going To Over

The giant signboard post has been put up since September. After waiting for for three months, the logos are finally installed. It seems the wait for the these fast food restaurants in Tasek will be over soon. Although Tasek is surrounded by housing & industrial estates, variety of food in this area is quite limited, especially at night. Anyway, when the 24-hour operating and drive-through available KFC opens in near future, residents and factory workers here will find an additional choice for dining, and the convenience of filling stomach at night.
