A Japanese-American bakery in San Francisco and its famous coffee crunch cake turn 50 years old this year. The man now running the shop in the city's Japantown seeks to continue his grandfather's legacy.While his grandson crunches up a tray of candy coating, Moses Yasukochi still can't help but sneak a piece of the signature dessert he himself had baked for decades.'Somehow or other, I lasted 50 years!' Yasukochi smiled.
Me, I was the grumpy guy in the back making stuff,' he chuckled.Today, Yasukochi is retired because of health issues, the weekly shop hours have been reduced, and he's turned the shop over to his grandson, Kenji Yick, a graduate of the French Culinary Institute.'Grandpa didn't have any of his kids want to do it, so we skipped a generation,' he smiled.The city has named the bakery a Legacy Business.
