"Owning a restaurant isn’t much different than racing a bike: you line up against all these big names and some days you win and some days you lose. But the greatest feeling is still being able to compete."

After a successful cycling career that included representing Canada at the 1990 Commonwealth Games, Chef Perry opened La Scala in the heart of "Little Italy" on the Corydon Avenue strip. To ensure a memorable dining experience for every customer, Chef Perry cycles to the grocery store daily to hand pick fresh ingredients. The first bite is all it takes to confirm you made the right decision to let Chef Perry cook for you at La Scala.
