Another variety that was sent by James of Lakeside, CA. The last of these Hoang Gia varieties I tried was really pretty good. Curious if this is just going to be the same thing with a little bit of heat. Time to find out!
Vifon Hoang Gia Spicy Crab Hotpot – Vietnam
Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge). Contains shrimp and crab. To prepare, add everything but the large retort pouch to a bowl and add 400ml boiling water. Cover for 3 minutes. Add in large sachet. Finally, stir and enjoy!
An instant noodle block.
A sachet of vegetables.
A large retort pouch.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added sesame seed, scallion, and crushed red pepper. Noodle was kinda off but fun to eat – a little mushy it worked. The broth on the other hand was very light. I really wanted more to savor, but I got a tea and crab kind of flavor and the included bits from the retort pouch were a combo of crab and tomato pieces. It was premium, but didn’t really satisfy. 2.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 8935311101905.
