38 Tras Street | BAM! RESTAURANT

BAM! is Singapore's first gastro establishment to pay tribute to 'Modern Shudo' - the contemporary way of sake enjoyment - and this revolutionary way of eating and drinking is taking flight in culinary corners around the world.

Spanning across two shop house units at 38-40 Tras Street, BAM! encloses a warmly-lit dining room, a floor-to-ceiling sake cellar with more than 80 outstanding Sake labels, a discreet private dining space and a relaxed open kitchen where dining becomes a spectator sport.

Executive chef and owner of BAM!, Pepe Moncayo holds high regards to the colours, flavours and textures that imbue his heavenly indulgences with a touch of theatre and presents a cuisine that transcends culinary boundaries. Driven by the favoured ingredients of the season, each dish is carefully constructed to excite, surprise and pleasure across the senses.

BAM!’s omakase style dining is an ever-evolving experience with exquisite culinary creations and certified sake sommeliers to guide you through your entire meal from one pour to the next.

Winner of the inaugural GastroMonth Circle of Excellence 2017 Innovative and Bold Chef Award, Chef Pepe Moncayo is not one to be pigeonholed by geography when it comes to food. Steeped in a rich Catolonian heritage, his cuisine is injected with a worldly culinary sensibility, driven by the finest ingredients of the season.

Having cut his teeth at several Michelin-starred restaurants around the world -including a stint at the now-defunct Santi - Chef Pepe now helms the kitchen at BAM! as Executive Chef, where each dish is an exquisite expression of his life’s experiences, elevated by innovative permutations of flavours and textures.

First introduced to the "Modern Shudo" way when visiting a brewery in Japan during his travels, Chef Pepe was immediately drawn to how sake brings out the "umami" flavours of food, adding a divine dimension to cuisine from around the world. This discovery eventually set the stage for his culinary creations which are paired with exceptional libations at BAM!

Cooking in the language of colours, flavours and textures, Chef Pepe continues to surprise even the most fervent of foodies at BAM!, enthraling their senses to no foreseeable end.

"There are 2 key ingredients I can easily spot in a competent Chef: talent and passion. You need a good dose of both. I had the luck of meeting 3 of them in my 23 years in the culinary industry and Li Si belongs to this exclusive club. Gifted palate, high self standards, consistency and leadership make her a joy and inspiration to work with." ~ Chef Pepe

After winning the Outstanding Culinary Apprentice in the World Gourmet Summit Awards of Excellence 2009, Chef Li Si sharpened her cooking and creativity skills when she worked alongside established chefs in Dubai, Spain and Singapore.

As Bam!'s Chef de Cuisine, Chef Li Si runs the kitchen with Chef Pepe and her lead of the team has impressed diners - many who have often mistaken her as a student due to her petite stature.

"Cooking from the heart", "thinking out of the box" and "paying close attention to details" are mantras from her mentors that Chef Li Si holds close to when creating new dishes with inspirations derived from her travels, love for food and the art of cooking.

Omakase is the Japanese tradition of entrusting the entire dining experience to the chef. BAM!'s omakase-style dining offers a parade of gastronomic indulgences that highlight the season's freshest ingredients. Chef Pepe's culinary creativity and assiduity to colours, flavours and textures ensure every dish is exquisitely plated to appetise visually and each bite is thoughtfully planned to titillate your palate.

'Nihonshu wa ryori wo erabanai' ~ Japanese proverb ~ 'Sake doesn't get into fights with food'.

Modern Shudo dining (shudo means sake way) pairs sake with global cuisine and this new trend has uplifted dining enjoyment.

Umami is one of the key flavors in sake giving this intriguing libation the ability to enhance the rich savoury taste in food. Sake takes on a complementary role when paired with food and harmonizes well with all dishes – from light and delicate to robust and rich.

With a broad range of varieties, flavours and aromas, sake is a versatile beverage assuring heightened gastronomic pleasure.
