The Persian: Uniquely Thunder Bay

A Journey into Thunder Bay, Ontario
Thunder Bay, the most populous municipality in Northwestern Ontario, is often referred to as the “Lakehead”, or “Canadian Lakehead”, because of its location at the end of Great Lakes navigation on the Canadian side of the border.
Thunder Bay is also known for a local pastry called a Perisan.
The persian is legendary to those from or who have connection to Thunder Bay, but by few beyond. So, to the rest of us beyond the Lakehead, here is its story.
Nucci’s love of the pastry spawned a chain of coffee shops in the city called The Persian Man.
“Nucci took it to the next level,” concede a one-time competitor at the time of his death.
Artists have been inspired by the persian too, wrote Schiedel .
