The heart of London's Chinatown sits on Gerrard Street, a location that holds a surprising technological secret. A building on Lisle Street that now functions as a supermarket was once an electrical engineering workshop where the world’s very first television sets were produced. This same site later became the place where pak choi was first imported into Britain, forever changing the ingredients available in the local culinary scene.
