THE KINSEY FAMILY COOKS
Rooted in the heart of Miami, the Kinsey family has always been more than just a name, it’s a legacy of love, laughter, and unforgettable meals. Every Saturday, we’d gather around the table, sharing stories, good times, and of course, incredible food. Now, carrying on that legacy, A Taste of Miami serves up the same soul-warming food that’s been a part of our family for generations. Meet the family members behind the secret recipes and flavors that make our food something you simply can’t forget.

GRANDMA ROSA MAE
Born in Alabama, then setting up roots in Miami, Rosa Mae was the heart of the family. The kind of woman who could feed your spirit and your belly in one plate. Every recipe she passed down carried her warmth, her wisdom, and a piece of home. She cooked with love, and it showed.
BIG WALT
A single father, a steady hand, and a neighborhood protector. From his ranch in Miami, he opened his home and his heart to kids who needed guidance - becoming a father figure to many. Yes, his baked beans were famous, but his legacy was his big heart.
