#4884: Yoko Street Pork Ramen (Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen ) – United States
Yoko Street reached out to me recently and asked if I’d be interested in sampling their ramen products. They ship fresh and so that sounded interesting.

Well, let’s put it together and give some tonkotsu shoyu a try!
#4883: Yamadai New Touch Char Siu Men from – Japan
Here’s one that came in a Zenpop.jp box. Here’s what they had to say about it – ‘Here’s a perfect start to the Christmas season: the mouthwatering delight of Yamadai’s New Touch Char Siu Men! Crafted with love and care, these noodles are a symphony of flavor that celebrates the heartiness of homegrown ingredients. Made from 100% domestic wheat, with a dashi of Japanese charm, we bring you “豚骨” (tonkotsu) – a special, velvety broth that’s the soul of every ramen bowl, filled with the love of “国産” (kokusan – domestically produced) pork chashu. These savory slices of chashu are tender, juicy, and slow-cooked to perfection, ensuring that each bite is an adventure in itself. This instant noodle cup also comes with a tantalizing mix of spices, carefully chosen to awaken your taste buds. Unlock the hidden flavors of “だし” (dashi) and “しょうゆ” (shoyu) as you savor the authenticity of Japanese cuisine.’

Anyways, here we go with The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Instant Noodle Bowls Of All Time 2024 Edition!

I thought instead of making people search the site I’d put the three in question in a single, easy to swallow post.

Anyways, here’s all three in their glory. I’ve also included my odd recipes I’ve made at the bottom – enjoy!

Gekimen is all about young people living passionately, and this bowl embodies this with a hearty stock and honest crunchy and flavorful toppings like green onion, bamboo shoots and Naruto.’
#4877: Mee Mee Chili Wantan Mee – Malaysia
This is the last of the varieties from Meet Mee – they were all pretty good! This one sounds good too. It’s so cold here – walked 3+ miles in it – definitely less than my usual outing but it’s really quite cold and my finger were burning. Anyways, this should be nice and warm – let’s give it a try!

#4871: Snapdragon Spicy AF Ramen Super Spicy Noodle Soup – United States
Okay so yes, these are made in Vietnam but made for the US market. Interesting name for starters – kind of surprising. That aside, I’m kind of curious about thsi one.

Big thanks to Pher Engi for this one! So these are really small packages to be prepared in a coffee mug. Things like this tend to be a little tricky to pull of staging since little bowls are hard to get the right sizing on. But we will be triumphant! What’s baso sapi? Wikipedia, please –
#4867: Seventeen EatsOn Sweet & Spicy Topokki – South Korea
Looks like we have a Korean boy band with a ton of dudes. Yep. There’s a lot of these tie-ins in Korean varieties.

Anyways, can’t complain about tteokbokki, that’s for sure. Let’s give it a try!

#4854: Baijia Shanghai Onion Oil Dry Noodles – China
I thought this one sounded interesting while I perused the noodle aisle at the Edmonds, WA 99 Ranch Market. I suppose it could be full of Sichuan peppercorn, either oil or dry powder, but I tend to doubt it. But, the proof is in the tasting – let’s give it a try.
