JCFS architects recently created the interior design of a bistro specialized in ramen, a traditional Japanese dish, located in the heart of Lisbon. Their creation is based on one of the main ingredients of ramen, the “ajitama”, that is to say the boiled eggs marinated for several hours in a homemade broth. The restaurant is the result of a collaboration between two friends who visited Japan and then decided to set up their business because the dish was still unknown in Portugal a few years ago. The architects decided to use wooden trellises to represent the organization, rigor and determination of japanese people. The immense installation whose carved arteries take the form of eggs fills the place where are suspended neon, reminding undeniably Tokyo spirit.
