Here’s one that came in a Zenpop.jp box. Here’s what they had to say about it – ‘If you’re familiar with the classic Chicken Ramen (チキンラーメン), the very first of all instant ramen produced by Nissin, then you’re in for quite a surprise. We know that Nissin likes to innovate, but we didn’t expect them to come out with this! Here’s their Japanese take on western cuisine, a Showa era (昭和) inspired Chicken Ramen. The Showa period (1926–1989) was one of economic growth and prosperity, during which Japan started important a lot of foreign cuisine, adapting it to their own taste. This Chicken Ramen was turned into a creamy gratin, with the flavor of charred cheese and the sweetness of roasted onions, for a creamy experience. 😋’
Ah – this one sounds good – a creamy version of chikin ramen. Let’s give it a go!

The noodle block.
A soup base sachet.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added egg, canned chicken, mung bean sprouts, sesame seed, crushed red pepper, and spring onion. This one uses the same exact noodle block as creates the original instant noodle, Nissin Chikin Ramen from way back in 1958. The twist is that the broth has a cheese sauce element. Honestly, it’s pretty good, although really quite salty. Nonetheless, it was really quite relaxing and delightful. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4902105280775.
