Here’s something new – found this at the Uwajimaya in Renton, Washington. It’s funny; we go a little out of our normal sphere of shopping and boom – all sorts of new things! Actually, found quite a few new Maruchan varieties – a Chipotle Instant Lunch as well as three new Bowl varieties – Miso, Sukiyaki and Tonkotsu! Those will be coming up for review soon. Until them, let’s check out this neat little cup.

The noodle block.
Some of the seasoning and vegetables loose in the cup.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added baked chicken, cilantro, baby corn and nanami togarashi. The noodles and thin and flat and went nicely in this one. The flavor of the broth was like a chili-sriracha; I found it going between a lot of cumin and then this nice sriracha taste that would kind of come and go. The vegetables did excellent – especially the peas! 3.75 out of 5.0 stars.UPC bar code 041789001505.

The smell of this ramen flavor is wretched.
