Remixes of traditional Chinese songs fill the air and Yeung has even decorated the atmospheric restaurant with an opium bed and parts of his personal collection of vintage luggage and contemporary Chinese art. Fortunately the natural...
Prescription pads, clipboards and patient charts are so 20th century. In the era of CT scans, gene-splicing and stem-cell breakthroughs, handwritten record-keeping feels about as outmoded as the fluoroscope. It's more than just strangely retro; it's fantastically expensive...
