Voted as the "Best Dim Sum in the Bay Area" by Focus magazine
readers,Yank Sing is famous for its exceptional food and service. The
Rincon Center, protected by the National Register of History Places, is
a unique venue for our CALA annual event. The circular space outside of
the restaurant glows under a skylight roof, soaring 80 feet or more
overhead. In the middle of the skylight is a rain column with water
descending like soft rain.
I look forward to the pleasure of seeing you at the CALA Awards
Dinner/Reception in San Francisco.
Have a nice and safe trip!
Sally
