🍳 Let’s unfck your venue — and actually make it work.*
Let’s be honest: the term “hospitality consultant” can feel a bit... vague. Maybe even a little corporate. When most people hear it, they picture someone in a blazer walking around their kitchen with a clipboard, spitting out buzzwords, and charging a small fortune to tell them what they already know.
That’s not us. That’s not Bam Bam.
I built this business because I’ve been there — on the line, in the heat, under the pump, managing chaos and still trying to keep margins alive. Bam Bam isn’t just about compliance or checklists. It’s about practical, grounded support for hospitality venues that want to thrive.

Here’s how we’re different.
1. Real Chef, Real Experience I’m not a consultant who "used to cook" twenty years ago. I’ve spent over two decades in every type of venue imaginable — from fast-paced cafes to high-end restaurants, managing teams, writing menus, and pulling off 200-cover brunches.
So when I talk systems, safety or profitability, it’s not theory — it’s from lived experience.
2. Sales Mindset + Chef Brain = Profit-Driven Support With a background in sales, I bring a commercial mindset into the kitchen.
It means I don’t just look at your food safety or staffing roster — I’m looking at your cost per plate, your upsell opportunities, your plate waste, and your supplier strategy. If your venue isn’t profitable, you don’t have a business. I help fix that.
3. No Corporate Speak. No Fluff. Just Real Talk. You won’t get a laminated 47-slide strategy deck. You won’t get jargon. You’ll get honest feedback, simple tools that work, and support that actually makes a difference.
I’ll work with your team, not just on your team. I speak their language because I’ve lived their shifts.
4. Tailored to Your Venue, Not the Generic Template Your venue is unique. Your team, your customers, your challenges — they’re all specific. So the support you get from Bam Bam is built around your systems, your menu, and your goals.
No one-size-fits-all templates. No canned advice.
5. I Stick Around If You Need Me Some consultants walk in, deliver a document, walk out. Not here.
Whether you want a one-off food safety plan, seasonal menu help, or you need me on-site once a week as a fractional ops manager, I’ll support you however you need. Flexible. Reliable. No lock-ins.
6. I Get It — Because I’ve Been In Your Shoes I know what it’s like to have too many tickets and not enough staff. To spend a night rewriting a cleaning roster. To hold your breath during a council visit.
That’s the difference. I’m not outside looking in. I’m on your level, working with you.
