Owner of The Bagel Shack to open second restaurant offering healthful food year ’round

 All of the food at The Bagel Shack is
baked and bought locally.
The Bagel Shack in Beach Haven is known for making fresh bagels onsite daily, using the company’s own recipe. Its owner, Ken Muha, is opening another restaurant to offer residents fresh, homemade food year ’round.
“We’re going to service the local community, not just the summer community,” said Muha, who will be running the restaurant with one of his brothers-in-law.
An American bistro with a rustic-surf theme, The Shack will have “a little bit of everything” from gourmet pizza to salad. Lunch and dinner will be offered to start, though the menu may expand to include breakfast, too.
“Right now, all the young kids want another alternative to the current situation. So we’re going to offer healthy food, as opposed to being fast food and fried served on a plate,” he said. “People are more aware of the food that they’re eating. There’s a lot, a lot of local interest, a lot of Beach Haven interest in this.”
Muha planned to open the second restaurant this summer but said he was too busy with the bagel shop. He hopes to open The Shack next door in April while still running The Bagel Shack, which is open every day except Christmas.
“We’ve had such great success here,” he said. “I figure I’ll sleep when I’m dead.”
