There is a very high turnover. In fact, I believe the only thing they serve is dim sum. There are a couple of places in Oakland that have similar tastes but more variety, only problem is that I can picture the location and look of the restaurants but not the names. If you happen to drop in to San Diego, we now have a place that serves dim sum that is every bit as good as I've had in San Francisco or Toronto. It's called EMERALD on Convoy in the Kearny Mesa area. The oriental food in SD has always been a disappointment after living in SF. Emerald is a real treat. Al
