Thomasina Miers

She has made two series of cookery programmes for Channel 4 with co-presenter Guy Grieve: Wild Gourmets in 2007 and A Cook's Tour of Spain in 2008. In 2011, she presented Mexican Food Made Simple for Channel 5.

Miers co-founded Wahaca, which became a chain of Mexican "street food" restaurants, alongside Mark Selby in 2006. The company opened its first restaurant in London's Covent Garden in August 2007 and in October 2008 a second opened at Westfield London. In 2011, Wahaca launched their first mobile street kitchen, selling Mexican street food on the streets of London. As of December 2017, Wahaca had 25 branches.

In 2005, Miers won the BBC TV cookery competition MasterChef, "impressing judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace with her bold and, at times, eccentric cooking style".
