About Us

Protein Parlor was founded by James Carlino and Paula Sung, partners that both share a passion for fitness and nutrition. James, originally from Rhode Island, USA, and Paula, a native of Taiwan, noticed a lack of healthy and delicious protein drinks and supplements in Taiwan. Drawing inspiration from similar healthy alternative smoothie shops in the US, they opened their first Protein Parlor store in West District, Taichung, in the summer of 2023. The response was overwhelming, and customers loved the variety and quality of the protein shakes, especially the signature “Crazy Monkey” flavor. In 2024, Protein Parlor joined forces with Naked Protein, a leading brand specializing in premium protein powders. This collaboration empowers customers to purchase the same high-quality products used in Protein Parlor’s drinks, enabling them to experiment with creating their own nutritious beverages conveniently from the comfort of their homes! Protein Parlor also partnered with several local and global gyms, including Anytime Fitness, The Bears Den, Middle Island Fitness, and Hypercore, to offer their members exclusive discounts on all purchases!

蛋白波樂是由一對熱愛健身，營養知識的夥伴創立。James來自美國羅德島、Paula是本地臺灣人，發覺臺灣非常缺少健康，美味的高蛋白飲品。受到在美國類似如健康奶昔、飲料替代品店家的啟發，他們在2023年的夏天，開了全台第一家蛋白波樂，位於台中市西區。開幕後得到了很大的迴響，消費者非常喜愛好喝品質好，又有多重選擇的乳清飲品，尤其是本店招牌''瘋狂猴子''。在2024年，蛋白波樂與有著高品質乳清蛋白粉的知名品牌裸肌合作推出聯名商品，為了讓本店顧客也可以購買到使用在本店產品的美味乳清粉。蛋白波樂也與多間台中當地，甚至國際的健身房合作，包括Anytime Fitness、熊派巴西柔術及綜合格鬥學院、Middle Island、超核心健身中心、提供這些健身房會員購買蛋白波樂商品及飲品的獨家優惠！
