Amazing Varieties from ramentalk.us

I got a message from someone on instagram asking me if I’d tried varieties from a company called ‘Ramen Talk’ a couple weeks ago. They really wanted to know where they could get more of them because the locak place they could get them didn’t have any more. Well, I looked around and found ramentalk.us so I was able to get that info to him, and at the same time ask if they could send me some samples. Well, he’s happy and now I’m happy because I got some samples and boy, do these look great! It looks like a couple of them have large slices of chashu; one with octopus?? This should be a fun set to review but let’s start with the unboxing! ...see full post

The Ramen Rater's Top Ten South Korean Instant Noodles Of All Time 2023 Edition

After a couple years, here’s The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten South Korean Instant Noodles Of All Time 2023 Edition. It’s been a sort of tough go lately; so few new Korean varieties have crossed my desk. Usually they’ve all been ultra spicy ones, and while good, they’ve not been ones that are top ten listers. There should be a few new ones to the list for next years list that have yet to be published, though. If you’ve an instant noodle company in South Korea, I’d love to review your products. I used to receive samples from the larger companies quite often, but unfortunately not so much recently. This list is comprised of varieties from South Korea that I’ve reviewed up to my 4,300th review. With that, here’s The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten South Korean Instant Noodles Of All Time 2023 Edition! ...see full post

#4358: Acecook Saigon Pho Vietnamese Rice Noodles Chicken – United States

#4358: Acecook Saigon Pho Vietnamese Rice Noodles Chicken - United States

Here’s another one I found over at S-Mart  the other day. This one is made for export to the US – it’s kind of interesting – Acecook is a Japanese company with a factory in Vietnam, and Sanyo Foods (makers of Sapporo Ichiban) are distributing it. Looks interesting – let’s give it a try! ...see full post

#4357: Shin Horng Hon’s Noodle Soup Seasonal Vegetable Flavour – Taiwan

#4357: Shin Horng Hon's Noodle Soup Seasonal Vegetable Flavour - Taiwan

Well, it sounds like my name. Actually, we used to go to a restaurant in Seattle called Hon’s for that reason when I was very young. We also used to go to the Atlas restaurant – man that place was awesome. One of them literally looked like someone’s living room – it was heaven there. But the true heaven I miss is Taiwan. That place – only a couple weeks of my life I’ve spent there, but every second I knew more and more that’s exactly where I want to live. I’ll be back someday! Let’s try this straight noodle variety from my future home! ...see full post

#4353: Ottogi Buckwheat Chilli Noodle – United States

#4353: Ottogi Buckwheat Chilli Noodle - United States

Here’s one made in South Korea and packaged for the Us market. This is a spicy and sweet cold noodle, perfect for summer months. As I write this, it’s just turned to August. We just had a week of temps above 90 degrees – very hot for the Seattle area – record breaking actually. Today it’s much cooler which is a relief. First day in quite a while since I remember the air conditioning being turned off. ...see full post

#4352: Paldo King Noodle Mild Chicken Flavor – United States

#4352: Paldo King Noodle Mild Chicken Flavor - United States

Thanks to BNB Global for sending this along! So this looks like a ‘king cup’ but I tend to consider them bowls. I’m thawing chicken in the sink right now for this one and the previous two as well. It’s hot – it’s about 8pm and 89 degrees (July 30th) and just been a tough go. We’re about to have a record for most 90+ degree days in the Seattle area ever. It’s gross. So, what do I do? I bake pizzas, cook ramen in boiling water. It’s a challenge. Anyways, hopefully when I do this up tomorrow it’ll be cool in the morning. Let’s hit it! ...see full post

#4351: Myojo Ippeichan Yomise No Yakisoba Mentaiko Flavor – Japan

#4351: Myojo Ippeichan Cup Yomise No Yakisoba Mentaiko Flavor - Japan

Well this sounds good. I always am surprised at all the Myojo Ippeichan out there and that there are still varieties I’ve yet to try. Mentaiko is cod roe. Yep – fish eggs. While some might find that strange, fish eggs are all over in Japanese foods. A lot of savoriness! I think I found this one at Asian Family Market a couple weeks ago. Let’s make some yakisoba! ...see full post

#4350: Paldo Bibim Tteokbokki – South Korea

#4350: Paldo Bibim Tteokbokki - South Korea

This comes by way of BNB Global – thanks! So Bibim Men is a cold noodle dish – you cook and drain the noodle, rinse with cold water and then add the sauce. This is a variety of tteokbokki, rice cake tubes which are soft and thoroughly enjoyable. This uses the same type of sauce as in the cold noodle, however it’s hot. I don’t think chilling tteokbokki would work so well – probably would make them tough. Regardless, this sounds interesting and I’m very interested. Let’s give it a try! ...see full post

#4349: Paldo Stir-Fried Noodle With Spicy Soy Sauce – South Korea

#4349: Paldo Stir-Fried Noodle With Spicy Soy Sauce - South Korea

This is an interesting one. While it says it is a stir-fried chicken flavor, below that it mentioned it has artificial chicken and beef flavor. I’m very curious – it sounds interesting. I’m excited as I’ll be reviewing some more Paldo stuff soon. Let’s check this one out – I think I found it at S*Mart in Bellevue, Washington. ...see full post

#4346: Acecook Hao Hao Mi Goreng Shrimp & Onion Flavour - Vietnam

Found this one at an Asian grocery on Evergreen  in Everett, Washington recently.

This one I think I’ve seen before online, but never in the ‘wild.’ Well, let’s give it a try! ...see full post

Okay so first off, a big thanks to A-Sha for sending one of these! Second off, this is a very premium box. Within are noodles, sauce/seasonings, and then some very fancy extras.
