Epoxies will bond extremely well to wood, so you can use virtually anything you like. Whatever is in your price range and available to you. For surface bonding like this, you want something a bit thicker to fill the bond gap, so while you could use a laminating epoxy, I would use a paste epoxy or an epoxy adhesive. Doesn't have to be anything special, something like Araldite or JB Weld would do the job, but be aware that those products are extremely overpriced for what they are. You can get significantly cheaper products from the right supplier, so look for composite suppliers or industrial chemical suppliers near you.

Hi, laminating epoxy with filler like microfibers would do the job?

Absolutely.
