Each customer is greeted with a smile and by name or a descriptive nickname that Shah has given to his regulars.

The distance in miles between Shah’s hometown of Karachi on the Indian Ocean in the south of Pakistan and Grand Cane would seem to be great. Desiring to live in a more moderate climate, Shah’s parents had moved from the Himalayas of northern India to Karachi where he and his 8 brothers and sisters grew up.
