Here’s a rather striking purple cup! This one’s from Nissin Hong Kong – they sent it along with over 50 other varieties for Meet The Manufacturer. Since I only review up to 15 varieties in a row for a Meet The Manufacturer, the rest go into the daily rotation. I’m curious about whether this will be hot and spicy – let’s find out!

The noodle block.
Some loose seasoning and garnish from the cup.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added shrimp, coriander and Thai chillies. The noodles are this and flat with a soft chew to them. They’re the standard Cup Noodles. The broth has a nice tom yum flavor – lemongrass and some heat. The bits of shrimp and egg are really nice – the egg was kind of a surprise; I mean, have you ever had tom yum and egg? Works well. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 4897878100156.
