Here’s soimething I’ve never seen before – smoked chicken ramen! This one hails from Japan and was sent by Javier over at www.BoxFromJapan.com. You can subscribe to receive a box with 4 different Japanese ramen bowls every month – it’s pretty awesome and honestly since it includes the shipping pretty cheap. Let’s see what Javier has to say about this one:
Noodles: Deep-fl avored, durable and fl exible noodles prepared with an intensely textured soy sauce. Soup: Features the characteristic taste of aged soy sauce, which gives it a grilled, smoky aroma. The base of the soup itself is a simple chicken broth, to which you add aromatic vegetables such as garlic and onion, and the final touch is made by adding black sesame. Ingredients: Cabbage, ground chicken, scrambled eggs, and red bell pepper.
Hey neat – well, let’s have a look!

A nice mixture.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added baked chicken, spring onion and Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts. The noodles were pretty good – mellow on the chew. The broth had a definitely smoky taste to it and it was a little overboard. It was that ‘liquid smoke’ kind of flavor and just didn’t seem quite right. The bits of egg, cabbage and chicken were very good. 3.25 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4901734027676.
