Irma Salinas has been appointed as Food & Beverage Manager at AC Hotel by Marriott Miami Dadeland
As AC Hotel Miami Dadeland looks to its opening later this fall, Marriott International and Concord Hospitality Enterprises are pleased to announce the appointment of Irma Salinas to the role of food and beverage manager for the property. Salinas brings a combined total of more than 25 years of hospitality knowledge and experience to the fashion-forward hotel located in the heart of South Miami's growing cultural hub.
As food and beverage manager at AC Hotel Miami Dadeland, Irma Salinas will bring five-star service and etiquette to the European-inspired hotel as she manages food and beverage operations within budget and to the highest standards, leads the culinary team by attracting, recruiting, training and appraising talented personnel, designs unique menus, and complies with food and safety regulations.
Born and raised in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, Salinas learned the ins and outs of a kitchen and gained much of her cooking knowledge thanks to her grandmother. In 2011, Salinas moved to the United States with her family where she found many opportunities to work and learn in the industry that she loved, including attending the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu of Culinary Arts where she received the highest level of culinary and hospitality management education before graduating in 2013. Shortly after, Salinas decided to take on the food and beverage industry full time after accepting a position as Chef Tournant at the renowned Ritz-Carlton Hotel Coconut Grove, FL. where she worked beneath the head chef, helping with various culinary duties and further refining her five-star culinary expertise.
