Cathy S. of Thunder Bay writes:
Thunder Bay boasts the largest population of Finnish people, next to Finland, apparently. There is a restaurant called the Hoito, located on Bay Street, which, literally, every single person living within a 400 mile radius pretty much knows about, or has experienced the wonderful food they serve. It is an icon in Thunder Bay, expecially their Mojakka and Finnish pancakes. On weekends, there is generally always a lineup to get a seat, and everyone has no qualms with waiting it out.
Add us to your list of Mojakka locations, because it's really a big deal over here!!
Everyone, come on down here sometime, Thunder Bay would love to have you over... summer and fall are breathtaking and you can 'test' our Finnish cuisine while you're visiting."

Ken Piirtoniemi of Sault Ste Marie writes:
"Her place is a combination bakery and restaurant which is very, very
popular here in the Sault with everyone, and she offers an incredible
lunch which will fill you up with great food and dessert. Mojakka is
one of her lunch specialties. If you're interested in baking, you'd
better be early!
"She has offered special supper sittings on Friday evenings in the
past specializing in the cuisine of Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark
- each country separately. Currently, she has rented the Union Hall
for an evening in February where she is selling tickets for evening
supper and half of each $20 ticket goes directly as a donation toward
a hospice that is in the works locally. She is definitely a community- minded person who contributes more than her share."
