I’ve wanted to re-review this one for a while. Just has a kind of weird name, ya’know? Here’s what the Nongshim site says about it:
Category: * Stars 3.1 – 4.0
#815: Chencun Stewde Chicken Of Mushroom
See? it really says it right there – stewde chicken of mushroom! I think this has to be one of my favorite misspellings yet! My sister brought me this back from Canada earlier this year. Let’s have a look!
#814: Indomie Beef Flavour Instant Noodles
Got this one ages ago – thought something mellow after the fiery onslaught I endured earlier. Beef. Let’s do this.
#812: Master Kong/康师傅 Spicy Beef
Spicy beef! This was sent by Bo H. of China! Thanks again! These have all been a lot of fun and quite good! Let’s see how Master Kong’s Spicy Beef goes.
#809: Nongshim Neoguri Mild (Korea)
Here’s another one that Moo Hee-Wi from Korea sent me. she was the one who wrote the JoongAng Ilbo article about The Ramen Rater last month! Thanks again! So this is what you would find in the Korean superkarket if you wanted to get some Mild Neoguri. A while back I reviewed the US version. Let’s give this one a try!
#808: Kim’s Bowl Vegetarian Tom Yum Flavor
Exactly one year ago as I type this, we were taking a break from Disneyland and doing a couple other things. Well, one thing we did was go to a little market and I got this instant noodle bowl.
#807: SuperMi Mi Instan Super Rasa Ayam Bawang
Here’s another one from a friend in Jakarta, Indonesia! Thank you! So what is Rasa Ayam Bawang you ask? Simple: Garlic Chicken Flavor! Sounds awesome! Oh, but wait – when I translate onion to Indonesian it says bawang too. Uh oh – I’m confused. Can anyone make a comment as to this? It would be greatly appreciated! UPDATE – Just got the comment I was looking for:
#806: Ohsung Hot & Spicy Bowl Noodle Soup With Soy Peptide
Here’s one the folks at Ramen Place sent a while back. Sounded good today to have somethin’ spicy! Soy peptide eh? Here’s some info. Let’s see how it goes.
#803: Master Kong (康师傅) Premium Taste Roasted Beef Noodle
Here’s another one of the Master Kong variants sent to me by Bo H.! Thanks again! This one is the the first Master Kong large noodle bowl I’ve tried.
#801: Gấu Đỏ Mi Tôm Chua Cay (Hot & Sour Shrimp Flavour)
Here’s the last of the packs that Carter B. sent from his time in Mali. Hot & sour shrimp sounds awesome – so let’s give it a try.
#797: Golden Mie Vegetable Instant Noodles
Here’s the last of the Golden Mie varieties sent to me by Carter B. from his travels in Mali. These noodles actually are from Dubai! Awesome!
#789: SuperMi Mi Instan GoKar Goreng Rasa Kari
Here’s another new one, sent by a friend in Indonesia! Thanks again! This looks interesting; a curry flavored mi goreng? I’m down with that!
#785: Sarimi Isi 2 Rasa Soto
Here’s another one sent by my friend in Indonesia! Soto I’ve had before has had a very nice lime flavor to it I very much enjoyed. Curious if this one will be the same. Let’s see!
#784: Hankow “Cai Lin Ji” Dry Noodles
Here’s another one my sister brought me from Canasda. I’ve been very curious about what’s going on with this one for a while. Today seemed like the right day for it. I used the UPC code to find the website for this company and found this little snippet about the product:
#782: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Savory Shrimp Flavor
#780: Ottogi Jin Ramen (Mild) (Korean Version)
Here’s one that was sent to me by Moon Hee Wi, the journalist who wrote the article in the JoongAng Ilbo a couple weeks ago! Thanks! Let’s give it a try!
#779: Indomie Mi Instan Mi Goreng Kriuuk Ayam (Crispy Chicken)
Here’s another new one sent by my friend in Indonesia – thanks again! This certainly is different – kriuuk? I couldn’t find a direct translation but here’s what Wikipedia said:
#776: Sarimi Isi 2 Rasa Kari Spesial
Here’s one of the new varieties sent by a friend in Jakarta, Indonesia – thank you! After trying so many Indonesian instant noodles, it looks like the flavors are almost backwards – Rasa means flavor, kari means curry and spesial means, well, special. Flavor curry special? Special curry flavor! It’s also a big pack and looks like it’s a soup. Well, let’s give it a try.
#773: Little Cook Instant Noodle TVP Stewed Pork Flavor
Here’s another one that was sent in by Michelle L. of New York, New York – thanks again! TVP? What’s TVP? Well, I’ve had it quite a few times before. TVP stands for ‘textured vegetable protein’ and is basically fake meat. Usually you couldn’t get pork in a packet coming from Thailand into the states – fake pork on the other hand is doable.
#771: Wingsfood Mie Sedaap Instant Mi Kuah Rasa Ayam Bawang
Here’s one I got locally at a new Indonesian grocery here in town – Waroeng Jajnan! I can’t wait to go back there! This is onion chicken flavor – ayam means chicken and bawang means onion.
#770: Kailo Brand Chicken Flavour Instant Noodle
Here’s another one that was sent to me by Carter B. – he bought it in Mali but it originally comes from Hong Kong. Chicken time!
#769: Nissin Cup Noodles With Shrimp Picante Style
Yep – a Cup Noodle! Just sounded good. I reviewed one that I ate much earlier and just got done reviewing three that I only had a bite of each. This sounds like something tasty.
#764: Sempio Hot & Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup
#763: Maggi 2-Minute Noodles Tricky Tomato
#761: Thai Kitchen Garlic & Vegetable Instant Rice Noodle Soup
#760: Nissin Big Cup Noodles Roast Chicken Flavor
Here’s a big cup from Nissin. Roast chicken sounds pretty good – especially to my son!
#759: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Savory Lobster (New Version)
There’s quite a few of these to review since the new design and flavors! Was surprised that my son (who by the way has his own blog at www.AndysLEGOStuff.com ) was up for trying some Lobster flavor noodles! I’ll steal a bite and a slurp and see how they are.
#758: JML Instant Noodle Artificial Stew Pork Flavour
Here’s another one of the big bowls that Michelle L. of New York sent. Stew Pork eh? Let’s give this one a try.
#756: Daikoku Bikkuchigekara Ramen (Big Chige Ramen)
Here’s one from Uwajimaya. Not sure about much of anything with this one so it’s kind of a crap shoot. Sure hope it’s good – this is breakfast.
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Chapagetti Chajang Noodle
Here’s another well-known Nongshim pack – Chapagetti. Basically, you take spaghetti and combine it with Chajang, which is a black bean sauce – now you have Chapagetti!
#754: Nongshim Ansungtangmyun Spicy Miso Noodle Soup (USA version)
Okay so I thought this was interesting. Look at the noodle block in this one – very different isn’t it? Well, Let’s give this one a try – this one was made in the USA in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Neoguri Spicy Seafood Udon Type Noodles
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim HooRooRook Premium Korean Noodle Soup
It’s funny how much my wife and I enjoy saying ‘HooRooRook!’ I wonder what it means though… Well, after some research, it came to my attention that it is the sound of slurping noodles.
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Champong Ramyun Instant Noodle Soup
This is a re-review – the last time I had this was probably in 2003 – when it was review #21. For some reason, I thought that it (Neoguri as well) had octopus in it. Clearly, that’s a squid holding chopstick and wearing clothing. I should note that these days, I know that’s a squid – and that squids don’t wear clothing. Moving on…
#752: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Savory Soup Tempura Udon Flavor
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Shin Ramyun Noodle Soup
It’s been a heck of a long time since I had one of these – over three years! Shin Ramyun is Nongshim’s most well known product – let’s see how it goes now, after trying over 600 varieties since I last tried it!
#750: Meet The Manufacturer: Nongshim Bowl Noodles Spicy Kimchi Flavor (New Version)
I figured for Meet The Manufacturer Week: Nongshim, I would start with a Bowl Noodles I saw get made while I was at their plant! They were cranking them out en masse! I’ve reviewed the old packaging / version in the past and these new ones are very different. They’re made to be cooked in the microwave, so that’s how I’ll cook them.
#748: Naengmyeon Combo at Hosoonyi In Edmonds, WA
Okay I know – I don’t usually review restaurant food but I thought I would this time. After our trip to Nongshim and learning about Korean food and culture, we were curious about this local restaurant. I looked through the menu and decided I should give their noodles a try! I found Naengmyeon combo and thought that might be good. I had no idea what it would be about, except that noodles were involved and that it was ‘good in the Summer.’ Here’s what Wikipedia says about Naengmyeon:
#747: Nissin Spoon it Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup
Here’s the last of the Spoon it’s that I received from the folks at Nissin Foods, USA. Sounded like something good for lunch. Anyways, let’s get to it!
#744: Payless Instant Mami Beef Flavor
I was digging in the bottom of the noodle hamper and pulled this one out – pretty old and needs ingested ASAP! It’s one my sister picked up for me in Canada last year. Very small pack too! Let’s give it a try.
