it all started with me, JR. i wanted to create something that was more than just a shop — a place where people could truly feel at home, no matter the time of day. being a miami native, i’ve always felt a deep connection to this city — its vibrant culture, the people, and the energy that never dies. i knew there was a need for a spot that was open 24/7, a space where you could always come to relax, discover something new, and connect with others. when i opened the doors of the shak, it was more than about the products we offer. it was about creating an atmosphere, a feeling of belonging. i wanted this place to be where anyone could walk in, be themselves, and find a little piece of peace in the busy hustle of miami life. from that first moment, the shak became more than just a business to me — it became a part of this city, a place built on passion, community, and a lot of heart.
