So if you follow my reviews you’d notice that Nongshim makes what looks to be almost the exactly same thing. Weird. But I suppose competition even in the world of instant noodles is fierce. So many varieties of noodles – one must stand out!
Category: * Stars 3.1 – 4.0
#213: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Spicy Artificial Lobster Flavor
So found the sixth of seven varieties of Bowl Noodle! Kit you rock!!! She saw it at Uwajimaya in Bellevue and boom – here we go!!!
#212: Maruchan Yakisoba Roast Chicken Flavor Home-Style Japanese Noodles
So the local grocery store had four different varieties of this stuff so I thought I might as well run through them. So roast chicken huh? Alrighty…
#211: Vina Acecook Mi Xao Kingcook Fried Instant Noodle Tomato Sauce & Pork Flavor
Wow this is very interesting! Pork and Tomato? How bizarre! I think this’ll be quite a different experience.
#207: Sapporo Ichiban Japanese Style Noodles & Original Flavored Soup
‘So I believe that this is the last of the Sapporo Ichiban regular ramens to try. I have a feeling is will be either soy or miso taste.
#202: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Cabbage Kimchi Flavor
So here’s the third of these Bowl Noodles I’ve tried, Cabbage Kimchi. Some not so keen on Kimchi might not know that its not only made of cabbage but other vegetables too, such as radish. Anyways, Let’s get started.
#201: Nongshim Bowl Noodle Soup Beef & Ginger Flavor
Beef & Ginger? Sounds really good! Surprising that I haven’t stumbled upon more packs of instant noodles that have ginger as a main ingredient – it’s so tasty and all…
#194: Saigon Ve Wong Kung Fu Instant Rice Noodles Artificial Chicken Flavor
So today my nose is bugging me so I thought perhaps something chickenny would be good. Well, this is artificial chicken flavor so we’ll see. Also if you look closely at the photo, the chicken in the bowl on the package looks like its made out of plastic! Truly artificial chicken flavor! Har har!
#191: Wu-Mu Steamed Noodle Chinese Herbs Flavor
I’ve had the garlic and sesame flavor noodles by Sing Lin before – they were really great so we’ll have to see how these stack up…
#188: Nongshim Udon Japanese Style Noodle Soup
Seen this around for a long time but have never tried it.Always looked kinda plain and boring.
#186: Paldo Teumsae Instant Noodles With Soup
Warning – IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE HOT AND SPICY FLAVORS, STAY AWAY!!!
So first off, help with translation here would be great. I think the words on the front of the package have a bit more going on than Paldo Teumsae. Teumsae seems to be another company.
#185: Shirakiku Fresh Japanese Style Udon Sanukiya Udon
MMMMMM – fresh udon! Plus, its being enjoyed while we watch the Maury show and watch people yell and freak out at eachother.
#184: Myojo Chukazanmai Japanese Style Noodles With Soup Base Soy Sauce Flavor
Some more of the Myojo Chukazanmai. It’s still on sale!
A powder and a liquid…
#182: Myojo Chukazanmai Japanese Style Noodles With Soup Base
Looks interesting – so far I have really enjoyed this line by Myojo quite a bit. Seems pretty gourmet…
#179: MAMA Kimchi Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Some Kimchi flavor from Thailand! Should be interesting. I’m going to doctor it up today with quite a few ingredients. One thing kind of interesting is that there is currently a cabbage shortage in Korea, where Kimchi is so widely consumed. Here is an article about it – thanks for the info Kit!
#177: Vifon Hu Tieu Bo Kho An Lien Beef flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodle
So another day and some more noodles my lady picked for me. This one’s Vietnamese and looks a lot like pho. At least on the package.
#172: MAMA Oriental Style Instant Flat Noodles (Tom Yam)
So I asked Kit to pick out two packs of noodles for me to try next. Here’s the first one. I’m curious whether it’ll be any good; the MAMA brand has reviews on here from 1 to 4 stars so we’ll just have to see. By the way, on the back in two places it says tom yum instead of tom yam like it does on the front. I’m going to go with tom yum being correct and the yam being a typo.
#171: Samyang Japanese Seafood Flavor Udon
So here we go with some Udon for breakfast. I’m going to really modify this one.
Powder and flake.
#170: Myojo Chukazanmai Japanese Style Noodles With Soup Base Soybean Paste Flavor
Second one of these I’ve tried…
Some dry powder, some goopy stuff which I figure is soybean paste.
#168: JFC Japanese Style Noodle Fresh Udon
Huge noodle bowl! Fresh noodles!
Okay so this is the second one of these I’ve ever had! They are a bit spendier than the regular ones – usually they’re between $2 and $4…
#166: Koyo Garlic Pepper Ramen Made With Organic Noodles
So this came from a local snooty natural foods place in Edmonds. We’ll see how it is…
#165: Doll Instant Noodle Sesame Oil Flavour
Sesame oil flavor – shouldn’t be too hard to get this stuff right eh? We’ll see how this comes out.
#163: Vifon Asian Style Instant Noodles Chicken Flavor
Okay so here’s some new stuff from Vffon. Let’s see how it goes! Hoping it tastes good!
#162: Myojo Chukazanmai Japanese Style Noodles With Soup Base Oriental Flavor
So I got these noodles yesterday up the road at 99 Ranch and wow everyone else wanted to be there at the same time! Was absolutely amazing how many people were in that store all at once! Surprisingly, it took maybe 8 or so minutes to get rung up and on my way home with some nice noodles that were on sale!
#149: Maruchan Akai Kitsune Udon Instant Oriental Noodles
So here’s one of the large noodle bowls I have. If you’ll recall, I’ve reviewed Kitsune Udon before – I did Sapporo Ichiban’s. This one’s a little different. The Kitsune is much bigger this time. Also, it’s a bowl!
#148: Myojo Okinawa Soba Japanese Style Noodles With Soup Base
So been really wanting to try this one! Okinawa soba! We needed to spend a little more for the parking validation at Uwajimaya so this looked good! It’s a 5 pack – haven’t see anywhere selling individuals.
#145: Sakurai Foods 100% Vegetarian Ramen
So here’s a new one. I had to add the brand as I’ve never had nor seen this brand before. Not a lot in English aside from the distributor, Hosoda Bros. Inc. and www.sakuraifoods.com.
#144: Nongshim Noodle Soup Kimchi Ramyun
So some Korean kimchi flavored ramen. Looks good to me, especially since we’ve been trying out Korean BBQ lately – so let’s go!
Re-Review: Ottogi Asian Style Instant Noodle Jin Ramen ( Hot )
So thought it would be nice to spice it up a bit and modify some Korean noodles for breakfast. So I picked the basis to be the Ottogi Jin Ramen.
#135: Unif Tung-I Fresh Shrimp Flavor Ramen Noodles
So after a long walk I was really quite hungry and decided to go with something simple and figured this would taste nice. Fresh shrimp sounds nice. I also really love how this brand has the text in another language – looks like dutch perhaps? Frisk Rekesmak!!!
#132: Ve Wong Instant Oriental Noodle Soup (Mì Bò Hương Cay Khâu Vị) Artificial Peppered Beef Flavor
So again this morning asked Kit to choose which pack of noodles I should have. She told me to go ahead with the peppered beef. Sounds good to me!
#131: Unif-100 Artificial Shallot Chicken Flavor Instant Noodles
So Kit tried the Pork flavor of this line a while back. I thought chicken with shallots sounded quite nice so here we go. I must admit it feels like there’s a lot of pouches in this one!
#130: Sapporo Ichiban Japanese Style Noodles Miso (Soy Bean Paste) Flavor
Thought Miso would turn out to be kind of boring so I’ve been putting it off. But it was a choice today between Sapporo Ichiban Miso and Ottogi Jin Ramyun and Kit picked the Miso so here we go!
#123: Wai Wai Minced Pork Soeng Kreung Flavor Instant Noodle
Wai Wai? Because because I’m done with folding laundry and it’s lunch. So I’m making some of this stuff. By the way – notice that little dude on the packaging? Apparently there’s a celebrity chef in Thailand called McDang and he has a kind of guide to the best stuff. So this stuff is supposedly good according to McDang.
#122: Doll Instant Noodle Shrimp Wonton Flavour
Doll Brand eh? Hmm… Haven’t had any noodles by these guys in a long time. Shrimp sounds good this morning. Let’s give them a try. I like how it also let’s me know that they are yummy by exclaiming that they are yummy right on the front of the package – that’s useful consumer information right there!
#119: Ve Wong Instant Oriental Noodle Soup Artificial Pork & Chicken Flavor (Mi Ga Suon Heo Khau Vi)
Chicken and pork. I have heard jokes about picken and chork made but never really thought of the two being brought together. I guess We’ll see if this combo works or not.
#534: MAMA Pho Ga Oriental Style Instant Chand Noodles Chicken Flavour
So here’s something new – pho. Chicken pho. I think this probably won’t live up to its name but we’ll see.
#117: Ottogi Ramyonsari
So look what we have here – plain ramen noodles! Yup – that’s it. A brick of noodles with no spices.
#116: MAMA Nam Vang Instant Chand Clear Soup
Nam Vang? Phnom Penh style? Looks interesting to be sure. A lot of words on this bag!
Rice noodles – like the Pad Thai in the similar packaging…
#113: Nongshim HooRooRook Premium Korean Noodle Soup
So I’ve been walking by this one for a couple months now debating when to get it. I got it the other day and now I’m going to try it out. Looks interesting – the name certainly is.
