Miriam Jimenez

Partner, Miriam Cocina Latina

When Miriam Jimenez moved from Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic to Dallas-Fort Worth in 2004, she brought with her a deep passion for introducing people to the rich and diverse flavors of Latin America. Her culinary journey began with a vision of sharing the authentic traditions of Mexican and Caribbean cuisine in a way that beautifully balances tradition with innovation.

In 2019, alongside partner Shannon Wynne, Miriam opened her first restaurant, Miriam Cocina Latina, in the heart of Klyde Warren Park. Since then, it has become a beloved destination for those seeking bold flavors and vibrant dishes inspired by her heritage. Now, with the expansion of Miriam Cocina Latina to its newest location at The Sound at Cypress Waters, Miriam is excited to connect with even more communities, continuing her mission to inspire through food.

Miriam’s culinary philosophy is rooted in creativity and authenticity. Her approach remains true to the essence of Mexican cuisine, its vibrant spices, fresh ingredients, and bold flavors, while adding her unique touch to create dishes that are both familiar and exciting.
