Editor's Note

September

Here’s one for you trivia buffs: what piece of literature, sometimes known as the world’s first self-help book, was admired by such diverse persons as Bob Dylan, Jorge Luis Borges, John Cage, Philip K. Dick and Gottfried Leibniz? Answer: the I Ching, more commonly known in English as the Book of Changes. A mystical work that has confounded and seduced people in both the East and West for millennia, it has had a profound effect on Chinese culture and is the oldest of the so-called Chinese classics, essential texts that formed the foundation of Confucian thought. Though the I Ching was originally consulted purely as a method of divination, over the centuries people have looked beyond this function to examine its mathematical, philosophical and religious value, with numerous commentaries springing up regarding the meaning of its poetic judgments. Many approaching the I Ching for the first time dismiss it as a confusing collection of opaque sentiments. To make sense of it all, for this month’s cover story we asked Dr. Jonathan Chatwin, a wellknown writer on Chinese history and culture, to give us a primer on the mind-bending magnum opus (p36). This month’s art section is all about the music. From an interview with ‘Supermassive Black Hole’ rockers Muse (p30), to a chat with Chengdu’s indie up-and-comers Stolen (p34), to a look at the highs and lows of touring per Shenzhen-based Pokemon Dad (p32), we just couldn’t get enough ear candy to accompany the end of summer. For a look at the lives of everyday locals, flick over to p17, where you’ll find the first installment of a new feature entitled Man on the Street. To kick things off, we’ve interviewed one of the men who enable our dangerous shopping habit: a courier from S.F. Express. How many items does he deliver a day? And just how dangerous is weaving down the road on a bike stacked high with parcels? Also being inaugurated this month is our Daytripper segment, where each issue we’ll feature somewhere you can easily visit within a 24-hour period from Guangzhou or Shenzhen. For our readers who want to explore more of Guangdong province, we’ll be picking easily reachable destinations that offer cultural attractions, natural wonders, culinary delights or all of the above! Starting with one of our more bizarre discoveries, turn to p24 for a look at Hallstatt, an Austrian village that has been completely rebuilt in Huizhou. As ever, a whole bunch of new restaurants are now open and ready to serve you savory pho, al dente Italian pasta and home-brewed beer. And don't forget to pick up a box of moon cakes! ‘Tis the season, after all.

WIN WIN WIN

In Guangzhou, a pair of tickets to see pianist Serhiy Salov (p64), a pair of tickets to the Italian Duet concert (p65), a pair of tickets to theater spectacle Shooting with Lights (p67), a pair of tickets to musical The Phantom of the Opera (p68), a pair of tickets to the Guadagnini Cello performance (p69) and one voucher worth RMB500 for Bocca Kitchen + Bar (p78).

tales of the city Guangzhou man’s 10-inch experience On the lighter side of news this month, an unnamed man had to have a 10-inch torch removed from his anus. Now, you are probably wondering how the torch got stuck in his ass (imaginations run wild); sadly the man is keeping tight-lipped about the incident. According to Metro UK, the man had to undergo a two-hour operation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine to have the object removed. “In the 10 years I’ve been operating on cases such as these, I have only seen one object that was larger – a cucumber stuck in the anus of a chef,” said the man’s surgeon, Dr. Sun, according to the report.

Pooh-pooh to toilets

Homosexuality equal to pedophilia and necrophilia A university student in Guangdong has filed a lawsuit against China’s Ministry of Education, after she found several medical textbooks in her school’s library that define homosexuality as a mental disorder, reports the Global Times. One psychology manual, which was included in Guangdong's 12th Five-Year Plan (20112015) for college textbooks, lists homosexuality as a sexual deviation along with pedophilia, zoophilia and necrophilia. The 20-year-old student, who goes by the pseudonym Qiu Bai, explained why she decided to take action, saying, "When I was experiencing an identity crisis, I tried to seek help by consulting these textbooks. But the wrong information has hurt me as well as other students like me.” China removed homosexuality and bisexuality from its national list of psychiatric disorders in 2001. In spite of this, a survey conducted last year by Guangzhou-based NGO Gay and Lesbian Campus Association in China found 13 out of 42 textbooks defined homosexuality as an illness or abnormality.

On August 16, two unnamed women let a child defecate in the rear of a Shenzhen Airlines plane, in an area of the aircraft generally used to prepare food. Domestic flight ZH9709 was leaving the eastern Chinese city of Nanjing, according to People’s Daily Online. Photos of the incident, which recently surfaced online, clearly show two women surrounding a child as he, or she, attempts to poo on the floor. The scene was discovered (and likely photographed) when an airline hostess returned to the rear of the plane to ready for take-off. Reports suggest that both of the nearby toilets were unoccupied. One of the women allegedly told the hostess that they couldn’t fit three people into the restroom because it was too narrow. The ordeal has caused quite a stir among Chinese netizens, with photos of the incident being shared over 10,000 times since being posted on Weibo. Most, if not all, Weibo comments display profound disgust at the incident.

Slap on the wrist for Shenzhen airport

Helicopter, the glam way to commute

In the same week that China announced it would close the country’s busiest airport in order to hold an epic military parade marking victory over Japan in the Second World War, the nation’s aviation authority signaled it wants to get tough on flight delays by punishing airports and airlines. Last year, Chinese airports posted their worst-ever punctuality rates with just 68 percent of flights departing or arriving on time, according to the Civil Aviation Administration. The regulator is now trying to reduce delays by making an example of Shenzhen’s airport – the nation’s fifth busiest – which will not be granted any new flights, routes or charters this year. The South China Morning Post reports: “As flight on-time rates dropped to a decade low, the Civil Aviation Administration slapped unprecedented penalties on Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport for its mishandling of large-scale flight delays over the past months that triggered several incidents with ‘significant social impact.’” One of those incidents involved a near riot in May when passengers threw food at ground staff.

Tired of taking the train between Guangzhou and Shenzhen? How about switching it up with a helicopter ride? According to the China Daily, local airline Astro Air may begin an inter-city helicopter service as soon as this month. The trip will take roughly 35 minutes and will fly between the roof of Shenzhen’s Excellence Century Center and Zhujiang Xincheng in Guangzhou twice daily. While the new transportation option sounds convenient, critics say it will likely be too expensive for most people – currently, a helicopter route that runs between Shenzhen and Macau costs RMB4,300 for a 15-minute flight. Hitting back, an Astro Air marketing employee claimed the company is committed to being affordable. “We hope ordinary people can afford to enjoy our helicopter service,” the unnamed employee was reported to have said. Naysayers have also pointed out that the transportation network between the two cities is already highly developed, making the service unnecessary. Then again, when has superfluous showmanship ever needed justification?

What has been the hottest topic this scorching summer? We’ll bet a lot of local people will say 股市 (ɡǔshì), the stock market. So let’s look at some of the interesting words and expressions that you can use to join the talks with your Chinese friends.

牛市 (niúshì) The bull market, in which the stock index (指数, zhǐshù) keeps rising (涨, zhǎnɡ). 熊市 (xiónɡshì) The bear market, in which the stock index keeps falling (跌, diē). 猴市 (hóushì) The monkey market, in which the stock index keeps bouncing up and down (震荡, zhèndànɡ). You can ask your Chinese friends: 你觉得现在中国的股市是牛市, 熊市还是猴市? (Nǐ juéde xiànzài Zhōnɡɡuó de ɡǔshì shì niúshì, xiónɡshì háishì hóushì?) Do you consider the current situation of China’s stock market as a bull market, a bear market or a monkey market? Now for a quick test of your Chinese cultural knowledge: 如果指数翻红, 那是涨了还是跌了? (Rúɡuǒ zhǐshù fān hónɡ, nà shì zhǎnɡle háishì diēle?) If the index turns red, has it risen or fallen? Hint: think of the most auspicious color in China. Still don’t get it?

Hainan gibbon, world’s rarest primate The giant panda isn’t China’s only adorable endangered species. The PRC – or, more specifically, a 20-square-kilometer patch of forest in Hainan’s Bawangling National Nature Reserve – is home to the last 26 to 28 remaining members of the word’s rarest primate, the Hainan gibbon. New research based on Chinese government records dating back to the 17th century has found that the gibbons were once a common sight across half the country. The decline in the primates’ population began in earnest about 150 years ago, corresponding with the growth of the country’s human population. One of the study’s authors, Dr. Sam Turvey of the Zoological Society of London, noted that China’s extensive practice of record keeping not only tracked households for tax purposes but also encompassed natural resources and animals. Although fewer than 30 Hainan gibbons remain, scientists are hopeful that the new research into the apes’ decline can help them draw up a more effective plan for conservation. If the species does become extinct, the Hainan gibbon would be the planet’s first ape to be wiped out due to human actions. QUOTE OF THE MONTH

To make it harder on counterfeiters to forge and easier for machines to read, the People’s Bank of China announced that they’re issuing new RMB100 bank notes starting November 12. While the old Maos will remain in circulation, the new hundies come with enhanced security features. The announcement came just days before China devalued the yuan in mid-August, so while your RMBs aren’t worth as much as they were a month ago, you can at least enjoy the illusion of wealth with the revamped notes boasting the 100 denomination embossed in gold lettering. RANDOM NUMBER

That was us once.” The sympathetic words of a Chinese netizen after watching the BBC reality program Are Our Kids Tough Enough?: Chinese School, which subjected a class of 50 British teens to the long days and strict discipline of Chinese-style education in a month-long experiment. The struggles of the British students – forced to don “a completely atrocious tracksuit,” do group eye exercises and start the day bowing in unison to their unimpeachable laoshi – were keenly observed on these shores, where the show brought back less-than-fond recollections of childhood for many Chinese viewers.

That’s the amount you could reduce your risk of death by if you were to increase your consumption of spicy food from less than once a week to six or seven times a week, according to new research published in the medical journal BMJ. Even a moderate intake of spice (one to five times a week) offers a 10 percent reduced mortality risk. The seven-year study led by researchers at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences compared the chili consumption of almost half a million Chinese people from 10 provinces across the country.

From Constantinople to Peking on strange iron horses BY Erik Crouch

he first recorded instance of a Chinese person seeing a bicycle is in the spring of 1866. Bin Chun, a diplomat on a political trip to Europe following the end of the Second Opium War, spotted one on the streets of Paris and it made quite an impression. “On avenues, people ride on a vehicle with only two wheels, which is held together by a pipe,” Bin Chun wrote in his travel diary. “They sit above this pipe and push forward with movements of their feet. They dash along like galloping horses.” The modern bicycle had been invented only a few years prior. Out were the gigantic front wheels of the impractical penny-farthing, and in were the low-profile, gear-and-chain-powered bikes of today. In the years following Bin’s discovery, bicycles trickled into China. They first cropped up among the colonialists living in Hong Kong and Shanghai, within the confines of clubs exclusive to foreigners. For many years, the local Chinese population had essentially no interaction with the laowais' rides. But, while bicycles were cloistered away from prying eyes in the foreign concessions and colonies of East China, thousands living in the western and northern parts of the country had seen these marvelous contraptions – all thanks to the improbable road trip of a pair of mustachioed American college grads. In June 1890, one day after throwing their caps in the air at Washington University, Thomas Allen Jr. and William Sachtleben board-

ed a steamer to England. In London, they purchased a pair of bicycles in the latest, most durable style – and concocted a plan to see the world. In the spring of 1891, the pair set out on a 15,000-mile bicycle journey that would test their wits as much as it would test their calf muscles. As the title of their eventual co-written travelogue would put it: Across Asia on a Bicycle: The Journey of Two American Students from Constantinople to Peking. Over the next two years, Allen and Sachtleben rode across Central and East Asia, with their bicycles scaring horses and attracting crowds throughout the Near and Far East. They climbed Mount Ararat in Turkey (and were disappointed not to find any evidence of Noah’s ark, which is supposed to have made landfall there); they staved off 120-degree-Fahrenheit (48.8 C) heat in Tehran; they caught – and fought off – yellow fever and cholera in Tabriz. But the trials and tribulations of Central Asia could not prepare them for the experience of entering China. Almost as soon as they crossed the border from Siberia into Xinjiang, they were met by flabbergasted crowds. The arrival of foreigners in itself gave plenty of reasons for excitement. “Our garments were minutely scrutinized, especially the buttons,” Allen and Sachtleben wrote. “Our caps were taken from our heads, and passed around for each to try on in turn, amid much laughter.” If seeing foreigners was exciting for the citizens of Qing-era western

China, then seeing bicycles was enough to blow one’s mind. “Some took [the bikes] for the ‘fire-wheel cart,’ or locomotive, about which they had heard only the vaguest rumors,” they wrote. In one village in Xinjiang, “we were evidently taken for some species of centaurs; the people came up to examine us while on the wheel to see whether or not rider and wheel were one.” In many towns, people had been warned of their imminent arrival. “It had been posted, we were told, a month before that ‘two people of the new world’ were coming through on ‘strange iron horses.’ Public curiosity was raised to the highest pitch.” As they moved deeper into China, the crowds only increased. Soon, the two developed a system for arriving in new towns: “On entering a Chinese city, we always made it a rule to run rapidly through until we came to an inn, and then lock up our wheels before the crowd could collect.”

ne of the remarkable things about Allen and Sachtleben’s travelogue is how thoroughly they enjoyed China. The book is free from the casual racism that one might expect in a 120-year-old text, and shows that the pair were fantastically good sports about the whole thing. They attempted to learn Chinese, yet “many times our expressions, by a wrong inflection, would convey a meaning different from the one intended” – which is to say, they had a very typical experience of foreigners learning the language. Their modest language skills enabled them to hear the variety of names that curious villagers gave for their bicycles – the pair’s favorite was, “it is like a little mule, that you drive by the ears and kick in the sides to make him go.” They enjoyed Chinese food – “Our fare in China, outside the Gobi [desert] was far better than in Turkey or Persia” – and were dazzled by the Great Wall. (At the time, there was a popular theory propagated by a

www.thatsmags.com / GZ / September 2015

feature

French missionary that the Great Wall was just a myth. Sachtleben and Allen write that they “could not but smile” as they thought of the mistaken Frenchman.) When the pair arrived in Beijing at last, they too faced accusations of mythmaking – many residents of the city, both foreigners and locals, could not believe that their trip was possible. “Entire faith in our alleged journey was not general,” they wrote, “until, by riding through the dust and mud of Legation Street, we proved that Chinese roads were not altogether impracticable for bicycle traveling.” It’s impossible to say whether or not Sachtleben and Allen were literally the first people to ever ride bicycles on the streets of Beijing – it’s likely that another foreigner or two had previously brought a bike to the city – but the Americans’ wheels are certainly the best documented. Before leaving Beijing, they met with Li Hongzhang, the famed politician of late Qing-era China. Li was captivated by their journey, as were many more of the capital’s political and social elite. While it would be a few more decades before bicycles could be found on every street corner in the nation’s capital, the seed had certainly been planted. After spreading the gospel of the bike in China’s capital, Allen and Sachtleben left Beijing for San Francisco, via Tokyo, and received a hero’s welcome in their home country. They returned to America and toured the speaking circuit, discussing their travels, and published Across Asia on a Bicycle in 1894. In the years following their departure, bicycles began making inroads among Beijing’s biggest figures. The Guangxu Emperor, who was under house arrest following a coup by Empress Dowager Cixi in 1898, one day attempted to ride the bicycle his eunuch had spotted in the possession of a foreign doctor within the Forbidden City. The ride was not successful: “His queue had become entangled in the rear wheel, and he had a not very royal tumble, and had given up – as many another one has done,” wrote the doctor’s husband.

Some took the bikes for the ‘fire-wheel cart,’ or locomotive, about which they had heard only the vaguest rumors

Where the Guangxu Emperor failed, however, the Xuantong Emperor (more commonly known as Puyi) succeeded. Two decades after Allen and Sachtleben dazzled China’s citizenry with their bikes, workers within the Forbidden City were prying out the ankle-high wooden dividers between rooms within the emperor’s residency so he could more easily ride his bicycle between them. And the last emperor’s enthusiasm for all things bike was only the beginning of what would become a national obsession. By the middle of the century, China had become the bicycle capital of the world. In the early days of the People’s Republic, the signs of a prosperous citizen were the “three rounds and a sound” – a bicycle, sewing machine, wristwatch and a radio. And by the 1990s, one hundred years after villagers marveled at the “strange iron horses” riding through their midst, there were more than 650 million bicycles in China – about one bike for every two people. But before bikes were parked 30 deep on every street corner, and before domestic brands like Flying Pigeon became household names, the story of bicycles in China began with two mustachioed American 20-somethings, braving the elements, pumping their pedals and fending off curious crowds from Constantinople to Peking. // Lead photo and image second from bottom on p14 courtesy UCLA Library William Lewis Sachtleben papers.

How he’s seen professional men’s tennis in China evolve… Professional tennis tournaments [have] grown a lot during these years…. Now there are more opportunities for players to play in China, and every year there are improvements.

This year’s professional and personal goals… My goals are to keep playing tennis at [a] high level and try to do my best every day on and off the court. His pre-match rituals… I don’t have a ritual, but I like to prepare well. [I] wake up at least three to four hours before the match, have a good warm up in the gym and then [a] 30- to 40-minute warm-up on the court. I write the strategy for the match with my coach, and I read it just before each match.

Top tennis talent like Gilles Simon, Marin Cilic and Tommy Robredo will vie for the win at the ATP World Tour 250 event. That’s PRD caught up off court with Robredo, currently ranked world number 21. Known for his baseline play, an infamous flipping off at the Valencia Open and his former “Disco Tommy” hairstyle, Robredo has won 12 career titles since going pro in 1998. With many accolades to his name – representing Spain at the 2004 Olympics, a career high of being ranked men’s number five in the world – most here in Guangdong know the Spaniard for his performance last year at the inaugural Shenzhen Open, where Andy Murray beat him in the championship game. Here, Robredo shares his thoughts with us on training, strategies and seafood.

His favorite Chinese foods… I like all Chinese seafood dishes, but also the duck specialties.

Deliveryman

Expressing packages from door to door by Jocelyn Richards

f you’ve ever ordered something online in China, you’re familiar with the euphoria of finding a package on your doorstep the very next day, pristine and intact, as if miraculously flown in by the most diligent of drones. It’s no secret that China hosts the largest fleets of deliverymen in the world, and for good reason. The nation is practically bursting at the seams with 1.4 billion shopaholics, all of who demand next-day delivery for next to no extra cost. Streamlined by a handful of highly competitive companies, couriering things in China is mind-bogglingly efficient, making Western carriage services look archaic in comparison. Where there are impressive feats, there are almost always unsung heroes. This month, we decided to kick off our new ‘Man on the Street’ column with Liu Xuan, a 32-year-old S.F. Express deliveryman who covers the expanse of Dongshankou in Yuexiu District. Rising by 6am every morning, Liu grabs two pork buns outside his apartment before rushing to the Yuexiu S.F. Express headquarters to sign in by 7.30am. A heap of packages awaits him, pre-sorted according to district. Liu is responsible for fastening them, one by one, onto his scooter according to the route he will take.

When customers want delivery to their door, it could mean dragging a TV to the 10th floor “Not everyone has a scooter or car,” Liu explains, when asked if the set of wheels helps him rack up extra cash. “If you do, you’re expected to take the heavier packages. But in older cities like Guangzhou, many apartments don’t have elevators. When customers want delivery to their door, it could mean dragging a TV to the 10th floor.” Liu delivers between 30 and 50 items a day. He is on-call the entire time and is required to stop by customers’ homes or offices to pick up items for delivery within one hour after a request is made. “If we arrive late and the customer complains, we’re fined. The money comes out of our next paycheck.” The trick, Liu says, is to be calm and polite on the phone. He also tries to form cordial relationships with regulars in the area. After a 30-minute lunch break interrupted by a series of agitated calls, Liu works straight until 8 or 9pm, racing against the mounting pile of boxes in his district office. His final wage, which is determined by productivity, usually amounts

to RMB12,000 per month – more than double the average income in Guangdong. “It sounds like a lot, until you give it a try,” Liu laughs. “We’re known for having a hard time getting girlfriends. Older guys with kids have no time for family.” Physically exhausting and hazardous (Liu encounters a minor traffic accident at least once a week), those in the business consider the job underpaid. A couple of Liu’s coworkers have worked at S.F. Express for decades, but most are young and unassuming, quitting by the second year. “We live by the phrase, ‘pick up one, deliver two,’” Liu says, clearly anxious to wrap up the interview so he can get back to work. “I think most people respect our line of work, which means we’re doing our job well. There’s meaning in that.”

The legend of Chinese medicine

Eating up with the Joneses

Like many aspects of Chinese culture, Chinese medicine is impressively old, but exactly how old is difficult to say. According to legend, it was invented by the emperors Huangdi and Shennong over 4,500 years ago, an amazing claim. Unfortunately, it’s not true. Not only did Huangdi and Shennong probably never exist, there are plenty of written records that prove Chinese medicine’s origins are much later. Many of the main theories about Chinese medicine like yinyang, five phases and qi developed during the Shang (1600-1050 BC) and Zhou (1050-221 BC) dynasties, but historical records show that in those times these theories weren’t really being applied to medicine. Instead, evil spirits and angry ancestors caused disease, so spiritual rituals were used as treatment. In university, I had a professor who was particularly fond of a theory that the idea for acupuncture came from Shang and Zhou rituals in which shamans would jab spears into the corners of a room to exorcise evil spirits. He liked to demonstrate its link to acupuncture by dancing around the lecture theater using a modern acupuncture needle to shoo away any bad vibes. It was quite entertaining, but I think its relevance is doubtful. What we actually know about the timeline of Chinese medical history begins with the two oldest texts still in existence today. The first is the Mawangdui Medical Manuscripts, which were sealed up in burial tombs in 168 BC in Hunan and then discovered in the early 1970s during excavation for a new hospital (a lovely coincidence). From these we learn that, by 168 BC, medical thought had begun to use yin-yang and five phases. It had

also begun to understand organ function and started mapping conduits that would later be expanded into the 12 main acupuncture pathways. However, it was still very rudimentary. Treatment involved some herbal remedies, bloodletting and quite a bit of magic, but no acupuncture. The next medical text to follow was decidedly more sophisticated. The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine is the first canonical book of Chinese medicine. We suspect it to be the product of numerous authors over a period of more than 100 years around the first century BC. From it, we learn how the human body functions, how energy and blood flow through the body, what causes disease, how to diagnose it and how to treat illness with – wait for it – acupuncture. So, at some point in the approximately 150-year span between the Mawangdui documents and the Yellow Emperor’s hallowed work, a doctor picked up some needles, which were probably bronze, and convinced a patient that he could cure them with a new technique he had developed. Who was he? Exactly when was it? We can’t ever know. But we do know that Chinese medicine and acupuncture in their early, but reasonably complete, form are 2,000 to 2,200 years old. It must have been a very exciting time to be a doctor in China. Though maybe not the best time to be a patient or an evil spirit. // Jon hanlon is a Chinese medical

Three people went on vacation: a 55-kilo person, a 65-kilo person and an 85-kilo person. I know, this sounds like the start of a joke, right? But weight is relevant here. The first week of the holiday, they split every meal three ways, and each person ate the same amount. I’m going to tell you that I was one of these people. I was sitting at 65 kilos, yet I was eating the same amount as the 85kilo dude. As for the little one sitting at 55 kilos… You can do the math. She weighs a full 30 kilos less, but was consuming the same amount as the largest of us. Here we were on this amazing trip together, ordering feasts and sharing everything equally. You probably don’t have to be a personal trainer to realize that this leads to quick weight gain, especially for the smallest one of us. And we’ve all done this, haven’t we? Whether it’s hot pot, tapas, a plate of nachos or any other shared foods. Generally, people want their ‘fair share’ of the order, no matter what the calorie count. This is why overeating tends to take place when you dine out, especially with communal dishes. Our structure of properly portioned protein, veggies and carbs often goes out the window. So how do we manage to feel satisfied during a meal out but still not overeat? Having a plan in place is the number-one key to success, so think it through before you go out for dinner. If you know it’s going to be a shared meal, have a back-up plan. Ask the others to order several healthier dishes, or consider ordering for your-

self and asking to separate your bill. Though this may be a little inconvenient, it will help you control what you digest, keep you from trying to match your friends bite for bite and likely save you some cash. Before you start to eat, remind yourself to chew slowly, taking time to enjoy the company around you instead of inhaling food. Drink water regularly and limit alcoholic beverages, which add empty calories and cause you to ignore fullness cues. Keep your goals close to you and remind yourself why you’re eating. If it’s just for pleasure, make sure you never lose sight of your fitness objectives while you indulge in a small treat. Enjoy, but don’t overeat. The next time you go out for a group meal, try to follow these tips. It might feel strange at first, but if you keep at it you’ll eventually find yourself enjoying the people you’re with and the food you’re eating much more. It’s a good idea to have support from friends if you’re trying to eat sensibly, so find other healthyminded people to join your meal. Activities like the K2Fit Challenge, which starts in September, are a great way to meet a whole community of people who can help you become your best self.

THE LAZY LADY Sofi à Paris founder talks slow fashion in Shenzhen BY Christine Gilbert

ofi Han designs slow fashion in a world of paradoxes. We meet the 25-year-old half-Korean, half-Chinese designer over a drink in Coco Park to discuss her fledgling brand, Sofi à Paris. Dressed in a boxy yet slouchy maroon shirt of her own design, black capris and plain dark sneakers, she espouses the same ease and directness embodied in her new collection, Lazy Lady. “The main focus of the brand is to not just sell a garment, [but tell] a story behind each look,” Han explains through her boyfriend-turnedtranslator Sander. She does this by taking different Chinese fabrics and incorporating them into Parisian styles. Han began studying fashion at 18 in France at the Esmod fashion school’s Paris campus. In 2013, with her formal schooling complete, she traveled to Yunnan and Guizhou to learn about design and production of silk, cotton and hemp. A year later she launched Sofi à Paris in Shenzhen, the city she’s called home since moving here, aged 5, from Harbin. We ask why she chose Shenzhen over Shanghai to base her brand. She shrugs. “Why not Shenzhen?” she says, citing the city’s untapped potential as an incentive. “Shenzhen has a lot of fashion and quite a few designers, but the problem is none of them have broken through to the international or national level.” Han has, like many residing in the special economic zone, an entrepreneurial spirit, an ‘if no one else, why not me?’ attitude common among the business-minded here. While her attitude mirrors those of other business owners in Shenzhen, the similarities end there. In a country known for cheap, massive and quick production, Han chooses to make slow fashion, which is characterized by local sourcing, custom pieces, a longer production time and sustainability. In the words of one of America’s most famous slow fashion designers, Soraya Darabi of Zady: “It’s about understanding the process or the origins of how things are made, where our products come from, how they’re constructed and by whom.” This idea seems counterintuitive to the ethos of Shenzhen, a city built through the speedy production of buildings, transportation and electronics. Fast fashion stores like H&M, Uniqlo and Zara feed into the collective mindset of lightning manufacturing – a mindset where a Zara item can be shipped from Spain to China and delivered in one to two days if it’s not available in-house.

Big brand outlets cater to people who walk into a shop needing an outfit for the night – one they can try on and purchase right away. In contrast, Han’s custom pieces take approximately five working days. Her Lazy Lady collection has less than 20 pieces in it, classified by six days of the week, such as Tranquil Wednesday and Champagne Friday. Zara and H&M both have ‘sustainability’ listed in their mission statement, but what is the ultimate result of fast fashion production? Where do those unwanted, sustainably sourced and made clothes get tossed when the next trend arrives? In 2011, Los Angeles Times fashion writer Janet Kinosian succinctly summed up the answer in her thoughts on Lucy Siegle's To Die For: Is Fashion Wearing out the World?: “Textile industry production is responsible for nearly 30 percent of China's pollution, according to Siegle, and then ends up jamming landfills with mostly synthetic polyesters that take centuries to decompose.” Conversely, slow fashion not only generates far fewer pieces than their fast fashion peers, but designers of slow fashion tailor more individual pieces and work more closely with the consumer – the person who will send a garment down the landfill path or keep it for years. Shoppers on Han’s website, sofiaparis.com, can speak with Han directly and pick fabric colors. This personalized input makes it more likely a customer will keep their purchases long term (slow fashionistas hope). “We’re concentrating on the group of people who want to live a relaxed lifestyle,” Han says, explaining the concept and French inspiration behind her brand. “In France, people live a lazier lifestyle, more comfortable, relaxed.” “I don’t just want to sell a piece of cloth. I want to tell a story with it, whether happy or sad,” she continues, refering to the vignettes Lazy Lady uses to elucidate each day’s look. Though the vignettes explain the outfits, each reads more like a poem than a traditional product description. They also serve to embody the two main psycho-sociological tensions explored in Han’s product line: the fully independent woman and her desire for a lover’s admiration juxtaposed against the modern business women fulfilling her commitments while living a lifestyle of ease.

For example, the NeoClassic Tuesday vignette reads: “With the passage of time // You’ll find your outlook broadens, your mind settles // And one day you’ll realize // Your story, your journey, is in fact none other than yourself.” Here, the woman of the Lazy Lady story expands her worldview and simultaneously works towards selfactualization. This seems paradoxical to the following day’s vignette: “For him // You always dress your best // For him // You discover a more beautiful you.” Clearly, the focus has altered not only in the looks (from Tuesday’s white shift dresses to the deep red hues of Wednesday’s fitted pants and tops), but also in whom the woman seeks approval from: herself or an admirer. “I want Lazy Lady to be for the women of today,” says Han. “They are independent, can provide for themselves, but they would enjoy that there is still somebody who cares about them in this lonely world.” Han aims to make her pieces suitable for both the personal and the professional aspects of a woman’s life, creating one outfit that can have many uses. “By adjusting the piece a little bit, it can be tasteful and attractive,” she notes. Perhaps Lazy Lady would be more aptly called ‘Efficient Lady.’ Sofi à Paris’ website states it arose “in response to the demands placed on urban women to be different people in different places [at] different times.” Han thinks the pressure placed on modern women to fulfill their different roles comes from society and themselves. However, rather than having that pressure dictate a fast-paced lifestyle, her looks cater to people desiring quality and versatility over speed, hence an outfit which can switch from daywear to nightwear with only the smallest of changes. Right now, Han is busy designing her winter collection. “I want to work on custom designs that can be suitable for anyone regarding materials, design and price range,” she says of the concept so far. Though her label may revolve around slow fashion, Han is certainly no lazy lady herself. In Sofi à Paris, she has cherry-picked the best aspects of France and China and made them into a brand that functions at both the office and the bar. // Soﬁ à paris’ Lazy Lady collection

Hallstatt in Huizhou

Picturesque Austrian village gets the Xerox treatment by Tristin Zhang

Halfway between Guangzhou and Shenzhen sits a quaint little town straight out of a German fairy tale. Pastel-colored houses line the streets, bedecked by flower boxes and wooden window shutters. A church spire towers over the scene. But this is no European enclave. It's Guangdong.

ollowing a three-hour trip that incorporates the train, the public bus, a motorcycle and an electric tour car (perhaps we should have just taken a taxi), we arrive at the outskirts of Hallstatt. A security guard clothed in a pseudo-military uniform greets us, then waves us up a winding cement path. After crossing a bridge with scarlet ribbons on the handrails and walking by a few selfie stick vendors, we

September 2015 / GZ / www.thatsmags.com

finally catch sight, through the trees, of the village we’ve come to see. Hallstatt is an Alpine locale populated by less than 1,000 inhabitants. A Unesco heritage site historically famous for its abundance of natural salt, it is a popular tourist attraction today due to its picturesque vista. A crystal-clear lake borders one side of the pretty houses while sheer mountains create a stunning backdrop. It’s the kind of place

where one imagines Heidi would have frolicked through meadows and milked goats. The place we’re visiting is not, however, the original Hallstatt. That journey would take a lot longer than three hours. Instead, we've trekked to the full-scale replica in Huizhou, which recreates everything from the sweeping landscape to the doorknobs. Unlike Oriental Windsor County in Zhejiang province or Thames Town in

Shanghai, which draw inspiration from Britain’s quaint cottages and historical architecture, Hallstatt Jr. has taken the Chinese art of copycatting to a new level by xeroxing an entire village. The only difference, it seems, is the shortage of mountains – though there is a man-made lake. Apparently, erecting artificial grass-covered peaks was a little too excessive, even with the project’s enormous RMB6 billion (USD967 million) budget.

Located in Buoluo County, around 120 kilometers from Guangzhou and 100 kilometers from Shenzhen, the Hallstatt homage was built by the real estate development arm of China’s biggest metal trader, China Minmetals Corporation. An advertising gimmick to sell residential properties, it was designed to lure in wealthy Chinese and encourage them to purchase one of the homes clustered around the central village, which www.thatsmags.com / GZ / September 2015

are reportedly scheduled for completion in 2017. Although the imitation ipso facto upset the actual Hallstatt’s residents, the village’s mayor, who thought the facsimile “could be a tourism motor,” attended an event at the Chinese counterpart on June 2012, one year after the developer broke ground. In fact, the first sentence on Hallstatt’s tourism webpage makes a tongue in cheek reference to its clone: “Hallstatt is such an unbelievably spectacular place that even the Chinese have created a copy of the ancient salt mine village.” As we stroll down the Chinese Hallstatt’s streets, we can’t help but be impressed by the detailed – if not entirely accurate – reproductions, particularly the grand church. Nevertheless, you could never mistake this for the real deal. High-priced shops and restaurants selling mediocre food have taken up residence in the houses, interspersed with painting stalls and snack stands crammed with deep-fried squid and chicken wings. The town square is flooded with visitors snapping pouty portraits, and The Sound of Music soundtrack appears to be set on repeat. By the end of our trip, our answer to the quandary of how to solve a problem like Maria is to blow her head off with a shotgun. It’s true that Hallstatt flaunts impressive Austrian-esque buildings, but ultimately the place looks like what it is: an exhibition for homebuyers. The question we leave with is, will it, as time goes by, simply fall into decay? Or will it continue to attract those unable to make the journey all the way to the Alps?

How to get there Take one of the regular trains from Shenzhen Luohu Train Station and Shenzhen East Railway Station (90 minutes, prices start from RMB16.5), or Guangzhou Railway Station and Guangzhou East Railway Station (105 minutes, prices start from RMB39.5) to Huizhou Train Station. Upon arrival, take a taxi (approximately RMB40) and tell the driver you’re heading to the Austrian village in Boluo County (博罗奥地利小镇).

Muse

From stadiums to space BY Andrew Chin

Stadium rock may be a dying genre, but Muse is keeping its bombastic traditions alive. Lauded as one of the best live bands today, the Grammy Award-winning British trio will appear at Hong Kong's AsiaWorld-Expo on September 28, riding high from their latest chart-topping album, Drones.

eleased earlier this summer, their seventh studio album is a heady concept album inspired by modern military warfare. The disc follows a young, disillusioned protagonist who becomes a drone operator. Co-produced by Mutt Lange (AC/DC, Def Leppard, Shania Twain), Drones evokes Orwell in its subject matter, Broadway in its theatrics and Queen in frontman Matt Bellamy’s soaring falsetto. “Matt always had a pretty good idea that this album was going to be very conceptual,” says bassist Christoper Wolstenholme. “The basic concepts for the album were there right from the start. It was always the case of making sure that the lyrics were strong

September 2015 / GZ / www.thatsmags.com

There are still countries we haven’t played, but the ultimate goal would be to play a concert in space enough to back up the concept.” While any sort of big-statement album will have its share of detractors, Drones continues Muse’s global success. It debuted at the top of the charts in 21 countries, making

it their fifth straight UK number-one album and their first in the US. One of the striking details of the album is the group’s return to their musical roots. After experimenting with orchestral and electronic elements on their past discs The Resistance and The 2nd Law, Wolstenholme says the group always knew that “this album was going to be more rock.” “We felt it was time for us to strip things back a little and return to more of a rock sound,” he explains. “Ultimately we are a three-piece rock band. Along the way we have tried to bring fresh influences into our sound, while at the same trying to retain the trio vibe.” While they may have scaled back in the

“The set can change a lot,” he admits, “but visuals have always been a big part of our show. We always feel that as there are only three of us, we need something for the crowd to look at. With the new album there is a very strong concept that runs through the record which will be reflected in some of the visuals.” Having already conquered massive festivals from Glastonbury to Coachella, no stage is too big for Muse. They famously performed in front of over 60,000 people at Rome Olympic Stadium, with the 2013 con-

Called the “greatest living act in the world today,” by Queen’s Brian May and Roger Taylor, the group spent the summer headlining festivals across the world. Their last world tour featured a gigantic pyramid of LED screens, cannons shooting Muse-themed bank notes into the crowd, acrobats and a lot of lasers. Bellamy has made public his desire to have drones fly over the crowd during the show but Wolstenholme is keeping show details a secret. He promises only that the China shows “will be more of an overview of all our albums.”

cert screened theatrically across 20 cities in the world. Plenty of metropolises still remain for the band to visit, however. Wolstenholme notes that “there are still countries we haven’t played, particularly in Asia and Africa,” before revealing the group’s grandiose dream: “The ultimate goal would be to play a concert in space.”

September 2015 / GZ / www.thatsmags.com

e’re charging up Guangshen Yanjiang Expressway towards Zhuhai in a rickety van driven by the same man we swore we’d never hire again after he nearly killed us. On previous trips we’d woken him from sleeping behind the wheel, swerving through lanes in his slumber. Early this morning, our original ride fell through. No other backup drivers answered. It’s only day one of the tour – eight cities in nine days – and we haven’t even managed to leave Shenzhen without resorting to desperate measures. Tonight, we play The Factory; tomorrow, our stomping grounds, Shenzhen’s Brown Sugar Jar (BSJ). Our band is an anomaly: made in China by four Americans. Not our defining feature, but worth noting. We met in Shenzhen’s fledgling music scene, where there’s little precedent or opportunities for anything but cover bands. Largely thanks to our guitarist-singer Greg's dogged efforts, we managed to release an album and book a tour. And here we are, against all odds.

music » ARTS

rowd-surfing, rowdy dancing, the palpable sensation of playing for friends – our BSJ show on the tour’s second evening reminded us why we were doing this. Our first show had been on the same stage two years earlier. On Sunday night, however, another ride fell through, and we ended up on a sidewalk in Guangzhou. And so, one RMB1,200 Uber ride later, we were semi-prepared to wake up early for a critical train station meeting where we would pick up our tickets for the next six days. Naturally, we barely made the train. Our bassist showed up 10 minutes before departure. Then we moved at a glacial speed down the track, crushing our pipe dreams of beach-going before that night’s show in Xiamen. In the rush to our Xiamen venue Real Live, an avenuecum-skate park, our guitarist left his phone in a taxi. Despite all of this, the show turned out solid. We were getting our bearings.

n Wuhan, our hotel's bottom floor happened to be China’s most well-regarded punk rock club: Wuhan Prison. Wu Wei, frontman of SMZB, China’s longest-running punk band, operates the club. I'd been lucky enough to play with him in Shenzhen. Not expecting anything, I went with the band and asked if he remembered our show together. He knew my name. Then, smiling ear to ear, we tipped back our glasses. Getting sloshy with China’s most legendary punk was worth me and our roadie missing the train the next morning. (Besides, we still beat the others to sound check in Shanghai.) By now we were taking things in stride. Shanghai was the first time in a week we weren’t changing cities for the next show. We walked the Bund, met seasoned Shanghai jazz musicians eating street BBQ and soaked up the views. Then we danced the night away. By the time we made it to our last stop, Temple in Beijing, we were sleep-deprived, verging on sickness, grizzled. Yet we knew this might be our last show, with both our guitarist-singers moving stateside. All the untold tensions and frustrations were laid bare. The last two songs were a blur of energy. Five minutes after we left the stage, I was sick in the green room from exhaustion, the first time I'd drummed to the point of puking. We stayed up the whole night laughing, telling stories, and, finally, saying bittersweet things. The highlight of our tour, though, was seeing so many young Chinese bands experimenting with music. Shanghai’s Gu Shui Che Jian (谷水车间) played unconventional, groovy rock in high fashion. Wuhan’s Cod New threw calculated electronic curveballs. In Shenzhen, our friends Choked Zone – my favorite band in the city – hit the stage with tons of positive energy. All of them flew in the face of negative stereotypes about creativity that generally plague China’s reputation.

ith a stellar new album and the support of Douban’s new D-Force record label, rising Chengdu quintet Stolen are at the forefront of the country’s buzzing indie scene. On the cusp of an ambitious 32-city national tour that will stop off in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, frontman Liang Yi is already thinking of the group’s next chapter. “It’s not enough that we’ve made some progress compared to our early music and performances,” he says. “Recently, we’ve been thinking about ways to get rid of the limitations of styles like electronic music or rock music; to create something new. This is a very big challenge and adventure, but one we want to be able to finish on our next album.” That outsized ambition has been the norm for Stolen. Despite their youth, the 20-somethings formed the group in high school where they connected over a love of rock music and being new emigres to Chengdu. Most of the members attended the Sichuan Conservatory of Music, maturing their budding music tastes together. “At the time, we were like any young student punk band doing a lot of covers,” Liang recalls. “Then, we began to like Kraftwerk, Portishead, Nine Inch Nails and Joy Division – this kind of cold dark music.” Winners of the 2011 Midi National Campus, the group has risen alongside their

Recently, we’ve been thinking about ways to get rid of the limitations of styles like electronic music or rock music; to create something new hometown’s music scene. As university students, they shared a rehearsal room with Maybe Mars upstarts Hiperson, while frequently appearing on mixed-genre bills with their friends. Their debut EP, STrange OLdfashioned ENtertainment, was released by Chengdu promoters New Noise, who recently brought post-rock stalwarts like Tortoise and Toe for mainland shows. P.K. 14 handpicked them to open for them at the Chengdu stop of their 2013 national tour, with the iconic band’s guitarist Xu Bo serving as producer of Stolen’s new disc. Recorded predominantly over five days at Taiwan’s 112F studio, Loop is a major statement. While some of the songs are three years old, their newly recorded versions show off a group more muscular in its tense

sound and confident in shifting dynamics. Douban quickly reached out to the group after launching their D-Force record label, and the disc was made available as a limited-edition free download to build up buzz. “I think every single band has a chance to be heard,” Liang says. “The most important to thing to remember is that while China’s record market is not very good, there are still some people or companies that have not stopped looking for good independent music.” With two mini tours of the country as experience, Stolen is embarking on their longest journey yet. Group VJ Formol promises the live experience will differ from the one captured on their record: “Stolen is really more energetic on stage because of some little interesting imperfections you can never feel on CD.” “The visuals add a new layer to the music,” he continues. “Sometimes you can have the feeling that the images are producing the sound. Images also have the power to make you focus on one sound in particular.” // Guangzhou: September 4, 8-10pm, rmb60-80. Fei

◉ In the Cultivation of the Tao, one must start with small matters

The I Ching has its roots in the culture of the ancient Shang dynasty, which ruled China between the 16th and 11th centuries BC. In the court of the Shang, a complex system of divination was developed, in which turtle undershells and ox scapulae (shoulder blades) were inscribed with questions pertinent to the state. Topics for these questions ranged from the weather or the emperor’s health, to matters of warfare and the potential longevity of the dynasty. Extreme heat was then applied to the bones to produce a cracking which could be ‘read’ by the diviner. Evidence of this process only came to light in the late 19th century, and its discovery is attributed to Wang Yirong, then chancellor of the Imperial Academy. In one – likely apocryphal – version of the story, Wang, having contracted malaria, sent out for the ‘dragon bones’ traditionally prescribed in Chinese medicine to treat the illness. Upon inspecting the bones more closely, he noticed faint inscriptions, which he recognized as an ancient version of the Chinese script. Wang then apparently set about buying up these dragon bones in order to subject them to further study. Unfortunately, however, history intervened in his enquiries; in 1900, Wang was commissioned to lead a squadron of Boxer rebels in Beijing and, when the foreign troops finally arrived in the capital in August to break the siege of the Legation Quarter, he committed suicide rather than face humiliation at their hands. His early archiving of the oracle bones, though, led to the first book of bone rubbings appearing in 1903, and the eventual identification of the village of Xiaotun, near the ancient Shang capital of Anyang in Henan Province, as the source of the bones. Around 200,000 fragments have now been discovered, forming the oldest extant body of written Chinese and providing detailed insight into a dynasty once assumed to be mythical. The divinatory system of the I Ching descends directly from that of the oracle bones. The Zhou, who overthrew the Shang in the 11th century, kept alive the culture of divination, but somewhat secularized and codified the process. Where the Shang had used heated turtle shells or cattle bones,

the Zhou established a method of casting the stalks of the yarrow plant, forming patterns to which the I Ching would be the key. The fall of the yarrow stalks (in the modern age, multiple tosses of a coin are used as a substitute) related to one of 64 hexagrams, or gua, each made up of six either broken or unbroken lines, which are the organizational principle of the I Ching. The basic method of actually consulting the I Ching is relatively straightforward. One poses a question, and then, using the stalk or coin method, arrives at a hexagram pattern. One then looks this pattern up, much as one would a dictionary or encyclopedia entry. It is here, however, that the reader’s real work begins. Each entry is named individually and accompanied by a judgment which the reader must interpret; these judgments are best seen as provocations to reflection, rather than straightforward answers. For example, this morning I posed a question to the I Ching regarding a writing project I’m intending to embark upon: "Is this a good time to begin?" I asked. I tossed a coin three times, scoring two for heads and three for tails. This gives you a result between six and nine, which dictates the first line of your hexagram. You repeat this process until you have six lines – your hexagram. For this question, I ended up with Hexagram 38 – Kui, or Opposition. The short judgment for this is as follows: In small matters This is Auspicious. Not a clear thumbs up, but encouraging enough. Then, one moves on to a short, poetic commentary, which expands on the judgment. The last lines from the commentary on Hexagram 38 run: The Myriad Things Are in Opposition But their enterprise Is still of the same kind. All of these elliptical observations are provocations to reflect, rather than answers in themselves; “The I Ching triggers lateral thinking,” John Minford observes,“ and offers the reader a way out of habitual, stale patterns of thought.” Any interpretation, however, is compli-

睽。小事吉。象曰：上火下泽，睽。君子以同而异。

cated by the fact that, over the centuries, these relatively short poetic judgments have been added to by commentators, both Chinese and Western. The I Ching is best seen as a palimpsest, with layers of meaning built up over centuries. The most venerable of these commentaries are known as the ‘Ten Wings,’ which have become an intrinsic part of the work as it is known today; however, countless other commentaries exist and have influenced, to a greater or lesser degree, modern Chinese and Western editions of the text. Ultimately, there is no one definitive I Ching; it is a work which has continually shifted and altered over the centuries. It is, as the Chinese are fond of saying, “not so much a book as a spirit.” In 2002, Penguin approached the sinologist and translator John Minford with the suggestion of producing a new English translation of the I Ching. Minford had worked with David Hawkes – perhaps the most revered translator of Chinese of the last century – on the Penguin edition of The Story of the Stone and had recently completed a new translation of Sun-Tzu’s The Art of War. For many years, the most widely consulted Western version of the I Ching had been Richard Willhelm’s German translation, which was translated into English by Cary Baynes in 1950 and formed the basis for many subsequent editions. Minford embarked on his translation with the aim of avoiding the psychoanalytic overtones of the 1950 translation (which was heavily influenced by Carl Jung, who wrote the foreword and with whom both Willhelm and Cary Baynes were friends) and presenting a more Sino-centric version of the text: ”I wanted above all to transmit a Chinese Book of Wisdom,” says Minford. Minford’s translation took 12 years – he describes the work as ”exhausting, testing and humbling” – and the finished text has recently been published, to much acclaim, by Penguin. The challenge of producing a new version of the I Ching was, Minford comments, essentially spiritual: “There were, of course, scholarly, textual and linguistic difficulties, but all along I have found that this project was, above all, testing me spiritually. The book itself acted as

a litmus test for the translation process, cautioning me repeatedly against haste and cerebral superficiality.” The text has, Minford observes, much to offer the Western reader. In East Asia, modern readers continue to see it ”as a source of indigenous wisdom applicable to many reallife situations, including holistic health, political, environmental, social and ethical issues, and harmonious lifestyle in general." Minford cites a Chinese business professor in Hong Kong who bases his theory of "Chinese Leadership Wisdom" on the teachings of the I Ching. Minford sees no reason why its influence and employment should be limited to the East: ”It is, after all, a text that is based on universal human values, not on any particular creed.” Minford’s ambition to produce a "helpful and kind" English edition of the I Ching has influenced his approach to incorporating the multitudinous commentaries; though predominantly Chinese, those he includes tend towards the practical and straightforward. In the case of my own consultation, the commentary is conservatively encouraging – though cautions helpfully against overweening ambition: “In the Cultivation of the Tao, one must start with small matters. Every line in this hexagram except the first is in a ‘wrong’ place. But progress is still possible – in small matters. Opposition may be healed and surmounted.” Even in John Minford’s wonderfully human and helpful translation, this is a book that requires the reader to work, and to think, and to stop: lofty demands in an era of instant gratification. Therein lies its power and significance, however; it pertains to a realm of knowledge beyond the reach of Google’s algorithms. For the knowledge and understanding it has the power to unlock is intrinsic to the individual consulting the I Ching. ”If there is total sincerity in the process of consultation, book and reader come together,” Minford says. "They are one. The book is you, the reader. It is your reading of it. No more, no less. It is what you find in yourself, in order to understand it. It is what you make of it. In that sense, you are the book.” ◆

Wakeboarding Central

Skimming the glassy waters of Zengcheng by Jocelyn Richards

A sweltering sun climbs to its zenith as Sunday morning rounds 10 o’clock – the time most 20-somethings submit to hung-over lassitude, turn over in bed and stuff their face under a pillow. But not the Zengcheng wakeboarders.

ising at 7am to hit the road by 8, these enthusiasts pile into a friend’s car each weekend to descend upon the rickety docks of Zengcheng’s Baihua Mountain Resort, where a man-made reservoir beckons them into a world of aerial stunts. By mid-morning, the heavy-eyed adventure seekers have already lined up their boards in order of voyage, taking turns perfecting what they call “monkey spins” and “handle passes.” Few words are tossed back and forth on the berth. Cliques of Chinese, Hong Kongese, Australians, Russians and South Koreans cozy up to lounge chairs, nodding off between page turns or messing around on the dock’s trampoline. All are familiar with the routine: board, rest, board again. Their day belongs

to the water; a modest lake of murky green depth that is neither clear nor polluted. Opened in 1999 with support from Michael Chow of Kowloon – the only Asian to ever compete in a world waterski competition – Baihua Mountain reservoir has served as a rare haven for South China’s wakeboarders and waterskiers. Chow, who looks a decade younger than his weathered age of 62, first skimmed the water in 1966, traversing the open seas of Hong Kong as a boy. In 1984 and 1985, he competed in two global waterskiing competitions before taking 30 years off to train, dominating local races in his home country instead. This past April, he made a surprising reappearance on the starting line of the 2015 World Waterski Racing Championships in New Zealand, where, he

laughs, “I let the young ones go on ahead.” Focusing on waterski racing, a perilous event in which a 1,600-horsepower boat pulls a skier over 100 miles an hour for nearly two hours, Chow is anything but middleof-the-road. Though not a businessman, he has managed to develop Zengcheng’s largest reservoir into a top-notch training camp, investing his own money into the project and often operating at a loss. Visitors can stop by any day of the week to rent a wakeboard, take lessons and enjoy unlimited access to a motorboat for RMB600 a day (RMB550 for women, discounts during winter months). “Five minutes listening to my instruction and you’ll get up on the board today,” Chow affirms, brimming with what appears to be well-earned confidence. Sure enough, even

the newcomers we see consistently rise on their first try, surfing the water for minutes at a time before tumbling into a bed of waves. Though he feigns casual acquaintance, Chow is deeply invested in anyone who frequents his shores, gauging their progress week to week and sharing his counsel when invited. All motorboat drivers are licensed and trained in safety by Chow, who expounds the intricacies of the sport, including the ideal weight and speed of a boat for novice boarders versus pros. An assortment of lifejackets hangs on shore for the extra-cautious or non-swimmers – of which, we’re shocked to learn, there are many. When noon rolls around, sun-strewn raindrops plummet against the dock’s tarp ceiling – a fair excuse to break for lunch. Chow,

sporting Ray Bans and a skintight Speedo, boils a pot of dumplings for the sapped guests on site. Anyone is free to grab a bowl and help themselves to jiaozi, bok choy, fried rice or bananas. Some brew shots of espresso; others grill meaty skewers on the far side of the wharf. As storm winds fade into savory scents, it’s hard not to feel at home amongst this peculiar posse of boarders. The afternoon carries on much the same, with three motorboats trucking flocks of eager passengers over the smooth water. Unlike the ocean, where Chow learned to waterski, the Baihua reservoir is unshakable glass – perfect for an amateur rider or midair maneuvers. Waterskiers are welcome but need to bring their own equipment, as there are no ski rentals available. For the

less athletically inclined, a hot pink towable tube awaits to revive a few terrifying memories from childhood – because who doesn’t love being whipped around in circles while screaming for the driver to stop? In a city of steel and grey, Baihua Mountain Resort is like the lake house of a jaded suburban family. Its waters rejuvenate Guangdong’s parched summer days. For Chow and the others, the lengthy commute offers long overdue downtime; a chance to slip into a buoyant wonderland and see just how far they can stretch the limit.

Mulling over Moles

Types, treatments and meanings of beauty marks by Dr. Li Li

What causes moles? Most moles are caused by melanocytes clustering in clumps.

Are there different kinds of moles? There are four types of moles: junctional, intradermal, compound and blue. 1) Junctional moles are at the junction of the epidermis and the dermis. They commonly occur on the palms, lips and outside the genitals. Their surface is flat or slightly raised. They can be light brown, dark brown or black-blue. This kind of mole can be cancerous and lead to melanoma. 2) Intradermal moles exist in the dermis. They have a smooth surface and a clear boundary. The size is more than 1 millimeter, and they grow in lamellar shapes. 3) A mixture of junctional and intradermal moles, compound moles share features with intradermal moles. Because they have the composition of junctional moles, they can carry the risk of turning cancerous.

a professional examination at least once a year to check for changes.

What should I do if a mole on my body gets ripped? If it stops bleeding, heals soon and no pain or itching is experienced, there’s no need to worry. If it doesn’t heal for a long time, feels painful or has lumps inside, consult a doctor. 4) Blue moles are so named for their bluish color. They often occur during childhood, surfacing on the arms, hands and feet. In most cases they are benign.

How often should a mole be checked? With increased air pollution, ozone depletion, computer radiation and many other factors, the risk of mole lesions is also rising. In order to improve awareness of prevention, patients with moles should have

How are moles treated? There are two methods for mole removal: medicines and lasers. Given laser removal’s ease and effectiveness, most patients choose this method of removal. Healing time post-procedure ranges from seven to 15 days, depending on the kind of mole and patient’s body type. // Dr. Li Li from harmoniCare Shenzhen Women & Children’s

The Notorious PID

Treating pelvic inflammatory disorder by Dr. Lisa Nguyen

What is pelvic inflammatory disorder? Pelvic inflammatory disorder (PID) or pelvic inflammatory disease is an infection of the upper part of the female reproductive system, namely the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. Often there may be no symptoms. Signs and symptoms when present may include: lower abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, fever, burning with urination, pain during sex and irregular menstruation. Untreated PID can result in long-term complications, such as infertility, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain and cancer.

What causes PID, and how can it be discovered? The disease is caused by bacteria that spread from the vagina and cervix. Infections by Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Chlamydia trachomatis are present in 75 to 90 percent of cases. Often multiple different bacteria are involved. Without treatment about 10 percent of those with a chlamydial infection and 40 percent of those with a gonorrheal infec-

tion will develop PID. Risk factors to PID are similar to those of sexually transmitted infections generally and include a high number of sexual partners and drug use. Vaginal douching may also increase the risk. The diagnosis is typically based on the presenting signs and symptoms. It is recommended that the disease be considered in all women of childbearing age who have lower abdominal pain. A definitive diagnosis of PID

How can it be prevented or treated? Efforts to prevent the disease include not having sex or having few sexual partners and using condoms. Screening women at risk for chlamydial infection followed by treatment decreases the risk of PID. If the diagnosis is suspected, treatment is typically advised. Treating a woman's sexual partners should also occur. In those with mild or moderate symptoms a single injection of the antibiotic ceftriaxone along with two weeks of doxycycline and possibly metronidazole by mouth is recommended. For those who do not improve after three days or who have severe disease intravenous antibiotics should be used.

Back to school 101

Making the most of the new academic year Compiled by Lena Gidwani

here has the summer gone? It seems like just yesterday students in our international schools in the PRD eagerly raced for the door to begin their much-awaited break. Fast-forward a couple of months and it's time to begin another school year. Sure, the newness a school year brings is fun, and at first nothing is quite as thrilling – or challenging! But new classrooms, new teachers and new classmates make some students really nervous. (They make parents nervous, too!) So what does a student need to make the most of the new academic year? We turned to two schools, American International School of Guangzhou (AISG) and Shenzhen American International School (SAIS), to answer that question, and here is their advice. Tip 1: If you have an assignment due, make sure you save those deadlines in both your daily planner and your online calendars

so you don't forget. Meeting deadlines is key for good time management. Tip 2: Set personal and academic goals for the year for each of your classes and share these with your teachers. Being successful in the classroom means establishing open and honest communication with your teachers so they can help you achieve your goals. Tip 3: Create a study area that is clean, organized, comfortable and distraction-free. Also, make sure you turn off your phone! Having distractions like WeChat or Instagram in your study area means you could spend twice as long completing your work. Tip 4: Create a schedule that includes everything you have on after school for that week (e.g., after-school activities, family time, Chinese tutoring). This means you can prioritize your activities and see just how busy your week might be. Tip 5: Lay out everything you will need for school the next day the night before, like your uniform, books, etc. This way, you won’t be in

such a rush in the morning and you are less likely to forget anything – like that important paper that’s due. Tip 6: It can be tempting to shove your notes into a binder after class, but take the time to ensure everything is organized and in the correct order. Having to search for misplaced or scrap notes is no fun when you have an immediate need to study. Tip 7: Borrow books from the library that truly interest you, not just because you have to. Reading is a great way to de-stress and you learn plenty in the process, especially in terms of vocabulary and literary devices and techniques. Tip 8: Always remember to be happy and positive. No one likes to be around someone that is always grumpy and negative. Look for the good things about situations and other people. Choose to be happy and your happiness will spread. Other students (and teachers) will want to chat with you because of your cheerful attitude and smiling face.

EAt/drink GOSSIP Our city’s feverish climate felt especially toasty this month, with an alleged fire sweeping across Xingsheng Lu that alerted officials to some pretty lax safety standards on the premises. We can’t say for sure if that series of events had anything to do with the following temporary closings, but patrons should be aware that Bosphorus Turkish Restaurant, Tomatoes and Oggi are currently on sabbatical. Luckily, the street is still hot with original options, including The Eating Table (p56), new in GT Land’s Winter plaza, and highly anticipated JZ Club, which is predicted to be “like nothing Guangzhou’s ever seen” – though it’s certainly something Shanghai has seen, since it originally hails from that city. We’re sad to bid farewell to Paris Jie, which has officially closed its doors on Huajiu Lu. If the stroll past GT Land Liede smells a bit more irresistible these days, it could be the wondrous scent of baked treats coming from Keepoo Cupcakes, which held its soft opening at the end of August. Still in Tianhe District, we tasted the artisan brews of multifunctional art studio Laihui Coffee, located just across from Tee Mall. Coffee snobs may flip to p59 for a recap. While Zhujiang New Town continues to pulse with attention, throngs of foodies are also gravitating towards Yuexiu District as District Bo Ho (p58) single-handedly lures pho lovers far and wide to taste the Vietnamese broth done right. We’ve also caught sight of a new pizza shop not far from The Brew Taojin and Amazing Remix snuggling in right where CLK Bar and Lounge used to be. It’s been a sizzling couple of weeks, that’s for sure. If you can’t take the heat, hunker down for a hot second and wait for the dawn of the new jazz age at JZ.

Off the Vine

Louis Jadot’s Beaujolais-Villages Combe aux Jacques

ost people have a vague conception that, when it comes to wine, it’s best to let the bottle age for a time. While this may be true in some cases, more than 90 percent of wines shouldn’t be left on the rack for more than half a decade. Beaujolais is a prime example. It comes from the namesake area south of Burgundy and is made using the Gamay grape. A particularly sprightly red, most varieties should be drunk within a few years. Famously, the nouveau version is consumed within a couple months of harvest, in what has become an annual bacchanalia during the third week of November. Beyond this

particularly youthful example, there are the 10 cru Beaujolais – the most sophisticated form of Beaujolais – and the BeaujolaisVillages, which holds the middle ground between the cru and the nouveau. Beaujolais is notably made – and bear with us through this technical segue – using carbonic maceration. Why should you care? Because carbonic maceration leads to fewer tannins, which are key to the astringency and bitterness of a wine. While tannins are a complicated topic that could fill a book, suffice it to say that in the long run, tannins can lead to more complex flavors, but in the short term, they can make wine quite un-

palatable. With quite low levels, Beaujolais is ready to go almost from day one. Louis Jadot’s Beaujolais-Villages Combe aux Jacques is a classic example of its type. Fruity, high in acidity and best served slightly chilled, it epitomizes the immediacy that is part of Beaujolais’ appear. Drink it right now or leave it for a year or two. Either way, its youthful vigor and freshness will charm and delight your palate.

Coriander-crusted salmon BY Jocelyn Richards

chopped 1/2 tsp brown sugar

almon, the trendy health fish extolled by nutrition experts and fitness columnists around the world, is approaching its final era. Don’t get us wrong, there’s nothing more satisfying than flaky, smoked protein after a long run, but this is one fish in desperate need of a makeover. Yet before you substitute nature’s prime omega-3 seafood with a sub-par alternative, take your salmon preparation upstream with this exquisite recipe.

Ingredients (serves two): Fish 2 x 120g sashimi-grade salmon steaks 1 tbsp coriander seeds, crushed 1 tbsp sea salt Cracked black pepper

Tea 100g black mussels (or clams) 50ml dry white wine 1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed 4 strands saffron 500g tomatoes, blended (collect clear tomato water only) 50ml olive oil Pinch of salt Edamame 100g edamame or green peas Pinch of salt and pepper

Cucumber relish 100g cucumber, peeled, deseeded and grated 1/2 tsp lemon juice 1 tsp dill weed or fennel greens,

Preparation: Fish 1) Season salmon with olive oil, salt and pepper. 2) Put salmon in Ziploc bag; submerge in cold water to press all air out. 3) Heat a separate container of water to 65 degrees Celsius, add the closed bag with salmon and poach for eight minutes. 4) Remove bag and carefully lift out salmon. Drip dry. 5) Dip the skin side in crushed coriander seeds. 6) Pan-sear the skin side for about three to four minutes on medium heat until golden and crispy. Tea 1) Heat 10 milliliters of olive oil in a pan. 2) Add garlic and mussels. 3) Add wine, then cover and steam for two minutes. 4) Remove mussels from shells and keep warm. 5) Reduce the mussel pan juices and strain into the tomato water (remove the tomato slag from the tomato juice). 6) Taste and season if needed. Edamame 1) Blanch whole edamame or pea pods in salted water for one minute. 2) Chill in cold water, then deshell the peas and gently mash. 3) Season with salt pepper, then heat up with olive oil.

Cucumber relish 1) Season the shredded cucumber with salt and marinate for 10 minutes. 2) Squeeze out the juices. 3) Toss with lemon juice and brown sugar, then add dill.

Pairing Pints

A guide to matching your ales with your edibles by Matthew Bossons

eer has finally found its seat at the big kids’ table. After decades of association with college parties, tailgating and your father’s belly, the amber nectar has charged ahead in revolutionary fashion. If you’re not familiar with craft beer (well, for starters, you’ve been living under a rock), commence the learning process by forgetting everything you already know about the boozy elixir. Forget the Tiger, the Heineken and for god’s sake forget the Tsingtao. Craft beer is an art form. It’s made in small batches using local knowledge and comes in an endless array of tastes, colors and consistencies. In simple terms, craft beer is diverse – large-batch corporate beer is not. “The macro-produced lager types of beer, the Harbin, Tsingtao, Budweiser, Miller, these are all very interchangeable. They’re thirst quenching, easy to drink, cheap and you can have a lot of it,” says Jonathan Crowder, director of sales South China for Duvel Moortgat China. “But these beers are just something to swill, you don’t buy them because you want flavor.” With the advent of a new brewing culture has come the desire to experiment and blend beer with pleasures other than football and sex. Boasting more depth than ever,

September 2015 // GZ // www.thatsmags.com

ales and lagers are moving into the culinary world – a place traditionally reserved for wine. Wine has amazing diversity; it’s difficult to dispute this fact. But whereas vino is made from grapes, you can add a limitless array of ‘extras’ to the essential ingredients when brewing suds. “You can put anything into beer and it’s still beer,” says Crowder. All beer is made from malted barley, hops, water and yeast, but even with that combination you can get astonishing variety. One major determinant of flavor is how the barley is dealt with during the malting process, which involves germinating the barley by soaking the grains in water, before drying them in warm air. Once the barley is sprouted, malt is produced. Controlling how much the malt is roasted will create a wide range of beer tastes and colors. If you roast the malt lightly, you have a product that is optimal for creating goldencolored lagers, while if the roast is black – where the malt resembles coffee beans – a darker, heavier beer is born. “The roasting of malts is a caramelization process, and that is what makes beer and food work together so well, because so much food is caramelized or roasted,” says Crowder. “So when you are eating a steak, you can have a dark brown ale that has the

When pairing a beer with a meal, you have to ask yourself, how bitter is the beer and how malty is it? These are the two most important pairing aspects same caramelized identity as the steak you are eating. That affinity is one of the things that makes beer pairings so delicious.” Aside from the fundamental ingredients, orange peel, chocolate, coffee, berries, wheat, oats and fresh cherries – among countless others – can all be added to change the profile of any given beer. Despite the importance of flavors and acidity, which are influenced by the fruits and grains we’ve already mentioned, Crowder maintains that the key elements that determine how well a beer pairs with different foods are its malt and hops levels. “When pairing a beer with a meal, you have to ask yourself, how bitter is the beer and how malty is it?” he notes. “These are the two most important pairing aspects.” The reason hops are so important, according to the Brewers Association, is that their bitterness cuts through the fat in food, reducing the thick, heavy sensation in your mouth. This allows one to better taste the constituents in a dish and appreciate the real essence of both the food and beer. Malt is an essential taste ingredient for a number of reasons. First, malt can contribute to an eclectic range of flavors, from caramel, chocolate and Graham cracker to roasted, toasted and toffee sensations. This enormous spectrum allows for harmonization with a diverse number of dishes and cooking

styles, according to Crowder. Malt also has the ability to reduce the heat associated with spicy foods. This all may seem like a lot to digest, so to help you plan your first, or next, beer and food pairing, we have rounded up a list of selections worth trying. For each beer on our list, we have included a suggested meat or seafood accompaniment, as well as a complementary cheese and dessert.

Amber Ale

Meat/Fish: This beer has a wide array of pairing options, matching chicken, seafood, burgers and spicy dishes with unparalleled ease. As such, amber ales (or red ales) are an ideal barbecue drink, suited to just about anything you toss on the grill. Cheese: Lightly tangy assortments such as Port Salut. Dessert: Poached pears in dulce de leche, banana pound cake or pecan lace cookies.

Imperial Stout

Meat/Fish: Typically boasting a 7 or 8 percent alcohol content, stouts can pack a punch that often overpowers most eats. That being said, this variety can work well with foie gras or smoked goose. Cheese: Well-aged options best contend with stout’s distinct flavor. Consider a doughty Gouda, Parmesan or cheddar. Dessert: It only makes sense that a dark beer calls for a dark chocolate treat. Glug your afterdinner stout with dark chocolate truffles.

Indian Pale Ale (IPA)

Meat/Fish: Do you enjoy bold, spicy curries? What about strong, sweet desserts? If you answered yes to these questions, then a frothy IPA is the gal for you. Enjoy this delicious beverage the next time you dig into a pad Thai or a bowl of chicken tikka masala. Cheese: IPAs work well with the blue variety. Suggested selections include the milder Italian Gorgonzola or Cambozola. Dessert: Super-sweet caramel cheesecake or creme brulee.

Pale Ale

Meat/Fish: While a diverse array of food pairing options exist for this beer, it is particularly excellent with meat pie, meatballs or a thick, greasy burger. Cheese: English-style choices like cheddar and Derby. Dessert: Undoubtedly a maple bread pudding.

Hefeweizen

Meat/Fish: Lighter foods fit best with this summer favorite, so consider enjoying it with a salad, some seafood or your next sushi dinner. Cheese: Goat’s cheese or herbal cheese spread on a crisp cracker. Dessert: Strawberry shortcake or key lime pie.

Porter

Meat/Fish: Because porters are made from brown malts, which have undergone a caramelization process as they are roasted, they work well with smoky or roasted fare. Ideally, you want to pair a porter with something like blackened fish, roasted or barbecued meat, or sausages. Cheese: Tilsit or Gruyere. Dessert: The dessert pairing for this beer is as delicious as it is classic: chocolate peanut butter cookies.

Witbier

Meat/Fish: Much like hefeweizens, wits go best with sprightlier seafood dishes, thanks to their acidic and citrusy notes. Sear some scallops or poach a fish for optimum satisfaction. Cheese: Mascarpone or herbal cheese spreads such as Boursin. Dessert: For a ‘witty’ dessert coupling, try banana orange crepes or panna cotta with lemon. September 2015 // GZ // www.thatsmags.com

The Eating Table

Socially palatable By Lena Gidwani

rossing the road from a major F&B-infested street like Xingsheng Lu to enter a relatively quiet, barely occupied mall may seem absurd to most. After all, who eats in a shopping center when you’ve got a fashionable thoroughfare erupting with restaurants and bars more furiously than Vesuvius in AD 79? But it appears that the nouveau riche and ravenous crowds lining up outside The Eating Table at GT Land’s Winter plaza beg to differ. Upon first glance, the entrance isn’t large, giving little away about the sheer magnitude that awaits. Saunter in to find displays of delectable items resembling those in an imported grocery store, a looming masterpiece of a mixology space, exquisite earthy elements built into the walls, and bronze pans, earthen tableware and empty wine bottles convening delicately on open shelves. During the day, natural lighting pours in from the glass-enclosed barriers overlooking the likes of the IFC to create an ambiance that puts one at ease. At nightfall, goblet-shaped spotlights come to life, glistening over the chic wooden tables and perfectly paired

chairs to add to the sheer size. With seats for more than 200 diners to explore their buzzing gastronomy at a less frenetic pace, The Eating Table’s warm, alluring design enlivens the senses. The question is, does the food do the same? Fortunately for its owner, who spent several years in Melbourne, the food is pleasing and delivers to both the local and foreign palate. Offering a tapas-style menu for brunch, lunch and dinner, the menu has a wide range of appetizers, soups, pastas and both meaty and marine-filled mains. Panfried prawns in black garlic (a rare, highly sought-after ingredient) come in a jar of rich butter sauce (RMB45). Homemade spinach and ricotta gnocchi (RMB48) are soft and springy, and sit in a creamy spinach-based sauce, whilst the beef onion soup with homemade

Pan-fried prawns in black garlic (a rare, highly soughtafter ingredient) come in a jar of rich butter sauce

cheese (RMB35) has a textural kick – the saltiness and lightness of the soup blends perfectly with the soft cheese. Paella (RMB60/one person, RMB128/three) is cooked al dente, a blanket of fresh seafood covering the top. For mains, try the signature chicken (RMB168); the protein is served whole and marinated in herbs for hours, before being grilled in a hot oven. Also of note are the

lamb chops (RMB168) and rib-eye steak (RMB168), both appetizing and worth an order. Drinks run the gamut, from classic to specialty cocktails, to smoothies, teas and signature coffees such as the cappuccino brulee (RMB28), a hard surface of burnt toffee under a perfect brew. To match, try the creamy tiramisu (RMB28) for a sweet, decadent finale to a satisfying meal. Price: RMB150 Who’s going: Modfood enthusiasts Good for: 180-degree views; earthy, quality fare

District Bo Ho

Pho-ing fabulous by LENA GIDWANI

It’s the c arefully l ayered beef pho that sets District Bo Ho ap art: brisk et and meatball s topped with rare slice d Austral ian ribeye

istrict Bo Ho is the latest entrant to the burgeoning trend of ‘bone broth’ eateries where the crowning glory is pho. This cozy bistro, located strategically on Jianshe Si Malu right next to Oggi, exudes a bohemian vibe with its grayish walls, humble wooden tables, crates of imported Vietnamese beer and an impressive service bar. Filled with steaming pots of soup, garden-fresh herbs, juicy meat brought in daily from a local wet market and handmade rice noodles, it’s a theater that warrants sitting on high stools and peering over the counter to see black-aproned chefs hard at work. The menu is a page long with just a handful of dishes, emphasizing the singleminded mastery of the almighty Vietnamese noodle. It’s the carefully layered beef pho (RMB48) that sets District Bo Ho apart: brisket and meatballs topped with rare sliced Australian rib-eye. Rounded off with color and crunch, this pho’s soul lies in its deeply woven broth, which is simmered for more than two days. Its entourage of fragrant garnishes – a flower pot of coriander, mint, basil, bean sprouts, citrus wedges and fresh red chilies, plus squeeze bottles of hoi sin, sriracha and fish sauce – is a superb addition. Crab and tomato noodle soup (RMB58) is the color of a deliquescing sunset, made with plump tomatoes to create a rich yet

pleasant level of tanginess. A side dish of young crab shell filled with marinated morsels of willowy crabmeat adds yet more textural complexity. For those seeking more mellow flavors, try the chicken pho (RMB40). The broth – made from free-range birds imported from Qingyuan and boiled for hours – is soothing, with a subtle sharpness that comes from the shredded chicken. To complement the mains, the beautifully served rice rolls (RMB38), accompanied by a mild sweet and sour dipping sauce, is delicate and refreshing, with zests of mango, avocado and shrimp that dance fluidly on the palate. The crunchy pork ears salad (RMB38) with young green mango and herbs may not appeal to everyone, but it is well placed on a menu that promises fresh options as the seasons turn. Ask for District Bo Ho’s secret weapon: their sriracha and mayonnaise dipping sauce, which can elevate simple rolls into something magical. The dishes also pair marvelously with cold beer. Try the Hanoi or Saigon varieties, or a filtered coffee (RMB18) with a touch of condensed milk. Like its namesake, the electric tram stop in Hanoi that once ruled a transportation network, District Bo Ho has all the trappings of becoming one of those must-visit destinations, due largely to the zeal and ingenuity of the very affable owners – and to those bone broths we’ve been so desperately craving ever since. Price: RMB70 Who’s going: Hanoi-esque noodle lovers, comfort foodies Good for: Steamy tete-a-tete’s over hot broths, fresh nouveau fare

Laihui Coffee

Broken circle breakdown Text and photos by Jocelyn Richards

hina’s affection for the phrase ‘come again’ is echoed on the mainland and in Chinatowns abroad, a friendly annotation spread across the exit signs of museums, parks and freeways. So overused is the slogan that most write it off as Chinglish, snubbing the expression’s origins in genuine hospitality and reunion. Laihui – or ‘back and forth’ – Coffee is about returning to the bare essence of life. The shop’s logo, two entwined circles born from coffee stains, represents the cyclical journey of customers, departing to come again. The vision, according to soft-spoken manager Liang Liji, is to create a space for imaginative minds to convene. When we visit, the rugged venue is packed with artists chatting over philosophy books and InDesign, sipping bitter coffee merely as an afterthought. The Weeknd’s ‘Can’t Feel My Face’ murmurs between careful chinks of a portafilter at work. Rowdy gossipers will feel out of place long before they’re kicked out. As abstract as the concept of Laihui may be, the shop has a concrete approach to coffee. Only six varieties comprise the entire menu, with no crumpets or croissants in sight. Roasted in Zhaoqing, Liang’s hometown, the imported coffee beans are mixed into affordable shots of espresso (RMB10), Americano (RMB17), cappuccino (RMB20), mocha (RMB20), caramel latte (RMB20) and single-origin coffee (RMB23). Liang, who acquired his coffee addiction in high school, has researched the beverage for a decade, memorizing the regional subtleties of the beans as one would with wine. It only takes a few minutes of small talk before we realize Liang isn’t one of those young money posers ranting about an artificial affair with caffeine – he really knows his stuff. For all the hype, however, including Laihui’s golden replica of Italy’s first coffee machine (one of 20 produced worldwide each year), our cappuccino lacked spunk. An average frothy design accompanied uninspiring flavor in a generic Styrofoam cup. With each monotonous sip, even the revered Korean artwork on display grew more pretentious, lost in originality too intangible to appreciate – at least for our simple coffee-loving selves. Clever interior decor aside, Laihui hasn’t persuaded us to come again, even on the coffee bean “show and tell” nights, which the cafe hosts once a week. We’ll leave that invitation for the city’s amateur coffee drinkers – or pompous artists seeking free Wi-Fi.

Price: RMB20 Who’s Going: Traveling artists, scholars of coffee Good for: Caffeine on an empty stomach, philosophy fix

n contemporary China, the notion of private home cuisine generally refers to feeding customers in the no-frills environment of one’s residence, usually with the owner donning the chef’s hat.

Three Drops Kitchen & Bar

Trickle-up Trickle-up theory theory Text Textand andPhotos Photosby byJocelyn JocelynRichards Richards

his review found us embarking, almost willingly, on a two-hour metro ride to a place we simply cannot get enough of: the charming corridors of Foshan’s Lingnan Tiandi. As convenient as the lengthy trip is via public transport, it’s only natural to wonder whether an eatery dubbed “Three Drops” will be worth it, or if we should have spared the effort. No matter which entrance you take into the common, a brief walk through stone alleyways will lead you to the front steps of Three Drops Kitchen & Bar X GEE, a threestory edifice consisting of a restaurant and bakery, second-floor salon and rooftop bar. The hope, we’re later informed, is that guests will literally “trickle up” – or move from one level to the next, relaxing over afternoon tea before settling in for a stylish up-do to parade around the third-floor bar by nightfall. Never has the phrase ‘don’t spend it all in one place’ felt less welcome. GEE, a haute Hong Kong salon with world-class hair products, isn’t officially connected to Three Drops Kitchen & Bar. The

two have simply agreed to merge business plans in light of their shared locale. Our attention, however, remained locked on first base: a ground-floor Western eatery founded by three Hong Kong studs with fetching Australian accents. Classmates who studied hotel management together in Sydney years ago, the trio once made a pact to open a restaurant of their own. Now, a decade later, their dream has finally come to fruition. Pulling up stools to an elevated counter running through the main dining area, we chat with Derek Lee, the director, over a flat white (RMB32) and refreshing glass of lemon lime bitters (RMB38). It’s then that the mysterious three drops from the venue’s name are revealed: artisan coffee, an exposed bakery and an open kitchen. Lee, a barista and former pastry chef, believes that a baker should be able to see the reactions of his customers. As such, fudgy cakes and garnished waffles glisten temptingly in a glass case before the bakery, which is visible to all diners. The

main kitchen – easily accessible via the back door of the shop – is devoted to whipping up fusion gourmet dishes. Head Chef Marco Ma of Guangzhou, trained in France and New Zealand, strives to enrich the taste of Western staples by tossing in unpredictable spices from Asian cuisines. The margherita pizza (RMB48), fit for two, excels in freshness with plentiful basil and quality mozzarella. The crust, a wafer-thin, non-oily chip patented by Chef Ma himself, sounds exquisite in theory but arrives soggy, waterlogged with tomato juice. For an original option, we’d recommend the Japanese kajime sauce and leek pasta (RMB48) – a mod blend of Italian pasta and Eastern spice – or grilled pork spareribs (RMB98) – a generous slab of smoked meat accompanied by expertly grilled pineapple slices coated in a delicate mix of cinnamon and honey. Absolute bliss. Hip, on point and friendly, Three Drops Kitchen & Bar is more than worth the trek. The food is honestly good enough to keep us coming back (well, at least to the first-floor restaurant), and that’s certainly more than we can say about Foshan’s cascade of toilets. Price: RMB140 Who’s going: Posh Foshan residents, tourists with taste Good for: Pre-perm luncheon, girls’ day out

Koon Thai Cuisine

Not the royal treatment by Tristin Zhang, photos by claire zheng

n 2011, seven of Thailand’s popular dishes made it onto the list of the world’s 50 most delicious foods in an online poll by CNN International. Koon Thai Cuisine has taken them all into account – as did we when flipping through its menu. Originating in Hong Kong, Koon Thai recently opened its third Guangzhou branch at Popark Shopping Mall, next to Guangzhou East Station. In typical food court fashion, the seating area is limited – you’ll be hardpressed to find a table after 7 in the evening. As it should be in every Thai restaurant, the interplay of taste sensations is reflected on the menu, which offers dinner and lunch sets for two or four, as well as selections of

chili salad, seafood (crab dishes are over RMB200), curry, rice and more. However, the overzealous menu may go a bit too far. By that, we mean that it doesn’t accomplish what it sets out to do – offer a broad variety of authentic eats. The chef forgets to toss conspicuous prawns into our tom yam goong (RMB30), a distinguishing feature of the dish. Instead, the classic spicy and sour soup goes haywire, tasting more like lime juice and fish sauce. India is not the only region that has excelled at exploring the world of curry. Thai curries, different from their Indian cousins in their use of herbs and aromatic leaves, are popular among tourists. The yellow curry beef flank (RMB55), with tender beef chunks doused in thick, mild-tasting yellow sauce, is a vivid example. Though tasty enough, sparse ingredients are bogged down by heavy coconut cream – not exactly a weight watcher’s

delight. You might consider grabbing a glass of pomegranate soda (RMB20) to offset the gloop. The pomelo salad with shrimp (RMB50) stands out among all other non-meat selections. Yam somo – or salads made with pomelo – are exclusive to Thailand. Broken off into small pieces, the pomelo, mixed with shrimp, peanuts and onions in chili sauce, tastes sweetly fresh. In most Thai restaurants, diners will have access to a selection of homemade sauces. Koon Thai left us fairly disappointed on this front, as it features just one generic variety of sweet and spicy condiment upon request. To wrap it up, though the service left us with few complaints, the dishes largely fall short of that spicy edge so adored in this royal cuisine. Chances are the chain has tried to adapt its recipes to suit local Cantonese preferences and lost its almighty flavors in the process. Price: RMB120 Who’s going: Flirtatious mall rats, ignorant Thai fans Good for: A manic attempt at classic Thai

Thyroid Nodules

What are they and how can they affect your health? By Dr. David Tai

he thyroid is a gland located at the base of your neck above your collarbone. Thyroid nodules are lumps which commonly arise within the thyroid gland. Those lumps can be solid or fluid-filled. They develop from abnormal growth of thyroid cells. You may feel them in the front of your neck accidently, or they may be noticed by other people. Normally, they don’t cause signs or symptoms, but sometimes you may feel shortness of breath or difficulty swallowing. The causes for thyroid nodules include: overgrowth of normal thyroid tissue (thyroid adenoma), iodine deficiency, thyroid cyst, chronic inflammation of the thyroid (thyroiditis), multinodular goiter and thyroid cancer. Thyroid nodules are the most common cause of endocrine problems and the incidence rate of a disease is more than 10 percent. Most are benign, but sometimes they can be malignant. When you notice thyroid nodules, you need see your doctors. They will perform a physical examination and some tests such as ultrasound, blood tests, fine-needle biopsy (FNA) and thyroid scan. Your doctors will order an ultrasound for you to confirm the presence of the nodules and assess the status of the whole gland. Ultrasound is used to evaluate shape and structure of nodules and distinguish cysts from solid nodules. It is also used as a

guide in performing a fine-needle aspiration biopsy. You may need blood tests, including ones for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), the thyroid hormones thyroxin (T4), triiodothyronine (T3) and antithyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO). If TSH levels are low, then you may need a radioactive technetium (Tc) test or iodine (I) imaging of the thyroid. If the thyroid scan shows hot nodules, the nodules are likely hyperfunctioning, indicative of a condition called hyperthyroidism. These are rarely malignant. If the thyroid scan shows cold nodules, you need get a fine-needle biopsy to determine whether the nodules are malignant. Once hyperthyroidism is diagnosed, you need anti-thyroid medications such as methimazole (Tapazole), radioactive iodine or surgery. If TSH levels are high, thyroid nodules are likely hypofunctioning nodules. You will then need an anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO) test. Depending on TSH, T4 and TPO levels in your tests, you may need medication. Once hypothyroidism is diagnosed, you will need to take thyroid supplement medications such as levothyroxin. If the thy-

roid nodules still persist, you also need a fine-needle biopsy to determine whether the nodules are malignant. If your TSH levels are normal, the nodules are more likely to be malignant. You will need a fine-needle biopsy (FNB), which yields sufficient thyroid cells to assess the risk of malignancy. If the nodules are strongly suspected as malignant, you need to have surgery directly to remove them. Benign nodules: You may need: observation, medication and surgery. Malignant nodules: You may need surgery. Most thyroid nodules are benign. Only a small percentage of lumps in the neck are malignant (around 5 percent). Some signs and symptoms are considered indicative of malignant lumps. Trouble swallowing or speaking, swollen cervical lymph nodes or a firm, immobile nodule, family history of thyroid cancer and prior radiation to the head and neck are more indicative of malignancy. A family history of autoimmune disease or goiters, thyroid hormonal dysfunction or a soft, painful nodule are more indicative of benignancy. In severe cases, you will need a neartotal thyroidectomy. You will need lifelong treatment with levothyroxine to supply your body with normal amounts of thyroid hormone. dr. david tai, m.d. is an american Family medicine Physician at eur am international medical Center.

Exhibition: Atonal – Multimedia Art by Gigi Lee, 10am-7pm (closed on Monday), MOP5. Macao Museum of Art (www.mam.gov.mo)

Atonal is an abstract, multimedia work immersing visitors in an experience of sound and light. Atonal music largely refers to compositions that do not conform to the system of tonal hierarchies that characterized classical European music, breaking the Western music rule of 24 major and minor keys. Lacking a tonal centre, or key, it creates an out-of-focus listening mode, thus comparable to abstract painting, defying traditional aesthetics.
