Kibô Lamen
Tonkotsu. Small and cozy, in Itaim Bibi · 120 reviews on Google
A small spot in Itaim Bibi, with the chef in view preparing the dishes and much-mentioned personal service (Mauro, Alexandre). Ordering is by QR code, with only a few isolated complaints about dry chashu or a sweet broth.
The highlight
A full-bodied, balanced broth with carefully made toppings: soft-yolk egg, toasted corn and tender chashu draw constant praise.

-
The tonkotsu is rich yet smooth at the same time, with light noodles that don't feel heavy.
-
The broth is extremely well made — rich, aromatic and balanced.
-
The chashu is thinly sliced, tender and well seasoned, with the aroma of a grilled crust.
-
The egg comes cooked just right, marinated and with a creamy yolk.
-
The sweet corn, toasted just enough, was a delicious surprise.
-
There's a vegetarian option with tofu and it's incredible.
-
The gyoza is the best I've had, with a perfect crispy crust.
-
Very faithful to the Japanese version, both the ramen and the gyoza.

A cozy spot; you order by QR code and the service is fast and attentive.
-
The starters are worth it too: karaage, edamame and shimeji.
