Here’s a variety that I found in one of MiauMall’s Nakama Noodles subscription boxes! Inside, they have 8-10 different varieties from Japan! If you’d like to get one, don’t forget to use the coupon code THERAMENRATER for a discount! Let’s see what they had to say about this one – “With a package that captures the beauty of traditional Japan, this choice was inspired by the night sky at night sakura events. This pack combines a tonkotsu base and dried fish base for a unique, full flavor. Add thick, springy noodles and you’ll have tasty ramen (or tsukemen)!”

#5004: Vifon Vietnamese Style Rice Noodle With Seafood Pho – Vietnam
Think I found this at HMart. This one says it has a stewed seafood sachet which sounds interesting. I also find the global top ten mention – not my global top ten though. Interesting. Let’s give it a try!

#4986: Red Chef Penang Prawn Mee – Malaysia

Found this one at HMart which was kind of a surprise. A welcome one, however. I really like Malaysian variants and this company sure puts out some nice ones. Let’s delve…
#4950: Mamee Chef Curry Laksa Flavour – Malaysia
When I saw this one at HMart I was very enthused. I did review this or a similar version recently, but the packaging has changed so maybe there’s a little different stuff going on. I’m a big fan of curry laksa – and this one generally is quite wonderful. This review is also a marker for something coming up – I’m only 50 reviews away from #5000. I’m still at a point of ‘what the heck will #5000 be? I feel like I should do something wonderful; return to my roots. Well, until then I will continue on my path through the world of instant noodles. Let’s go!
#4947: Mi Sedaap Style Of Singapore Spicy Laksa – Indonesia
Happy birthday to me! This one looked really neat and what’s crazy is I found it locally at S*Mart. I visit that place once a year usually and find a ton of great stuff I’ve never seen before. I even got some mint for garnish on this one. I wanted to get a mint plant and a basil plant yesterday at the fruit stand, but it’s still too early – they didn’t have any. I mean, it is still winter here. Regardless, let’s cook!

#4913: Indomie Mi Instan Rasa Cakalang – Indonesia
This one came by way of Pher Engi – thanks again! You might see this and say ‘I can’t get this in the United States.’ Well, if you’re from here that is. What you might not know is that this variety used to be available here – it was called Skipjack Tuna flavor. I would guess the last time I saw it was around 22 years ago at an Asian grocery that now doesn’t even exist anymore called Evergreen Asian Grocery. They had a ton of boxes in an area that were open and full of packs of Indomie. So many varieties have left the US market – it’s pretty sad to be honest. Anyways, this is a tuna flavored one – it is with soup, and there’s a mi goreng as well. Let’s give it a try!
