Toyo Mansi huh? Well, I’m pretty sure that mansi is lime, but toyo? Well, Wikipedia had the answer:

#429: Quickchow Instant Chicken Mami Chicken Flavor
So here’s some Quickchow from the Philippines. Mami just means noodle soup as far as I know. I like the little ‘Buy Pinoy’ logo on the lower right!
#428: Kamfen E-Men Noodles Artificial Chicken Soup Flavor
So this is something different – E-Men noodles. The ingredients say they’re mad of wheat flour and soybean oil…
#427: Koka Mi Hai Cua 2 Crab Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Look at the angry little crabs! They’re saying ‘eat the noodle soup!’ I’m agreeing with them and thusly, I portend to make said soup and have it for breakfast.
#426: Vifon Tứ Quý Mì Ga Ngu Vi Chicken Flavor Instant Noodle
So here’s another of the Vifon Tứ Quý packs I got on my birthday. Chicken eh? Sounds basic… Hmmm.
#425: Chikara Shrimp Flavor Udon
So something a little more tame. Shrimp udon! Should be good and tasty I imagine. Fresh noodles are always good.
#424: Q Ai Men Tsu Noodle With Sesame Sauce (Luxe Enterprises Ltd)

#423: Nongshim Shin Cup (Shin Ramyun)
So here’s the last (as far as I know) of the Shin Ramyun line from Nongshim. Shin Ramyun (pack), Shin Cup, Shin Bowl and Shin Big Bowl. Let’s give it a go.
#422: Vifon Mì Lẩu Thái Thai Style Instant Noodle
This one’s been sitting in the bottom of the ramen box for quite a while now. Wondered how they would be – spicy? Salty? Nasty? Thready? Well, let’s open them and find out!
#421: Myojo Kakesoba-Desse Soy Sauce Flavor Japanese Style Soup Noodles
So here’s another of these nice Myojo varieties. A little more spendy at $2.49, but really some nice stuff.
#420: Sapporo Ichiban Beef Flavor With Natural & Artificial Flavors Oriental Noodle Soup
As promised, here’s another of Sapporo Ichiban’s cup line. Again, we see the cooked and ready product being inundated with more piping hot water. Weird picture…
#419: Myojo Ramen-Desse-Shio Japanese Style Soup Noodles Oriental Flavor
So here’s another of these great Myojo bowls – hopefully I like this one too!
Two packets – a lot of powder and some kind of oil…

Some spicy beef this morning for breakfast. Really hoping its good stuff! I guess we’ll see.
#416: Sapporo Ichiban Chicken Flavor With Natural & Artificial Flavors Oriental Noodle Soup (Cup)
A couple things to start out with here as this picture is somewhat ridiculous. So they’re adding water to the cup. The water is up to the line already and not only that, the contents appear to already be done cooking; the veggies are clearly re-hydrated. Kind of weird I thought.
#415: Ve Wong Dah Wei Vang Instant Noodles Artificial Classic Beef Flavor
So this is a big wide bowl of noodles. Don’t think I’ve had any Ve Wong like this before – hope its something good!
#414: Doll Instant Noodle Artificial Beef Flavour
So I’ve been quite a fan of Doll’s varieties – they’ve always proven to be quite nice. So here’s their beef variety.
#413: Souper Brand Japanese Style Alimentary Paste Chow-Mein With Soup Stock
So we were in the Asian grocery today and looking around on the fresh noodle aisle. I’ve done all the varieties they had of the Myojo Udon in the past, but there’s quite a few here I haven’t done before too, so here we go!
#412: Maruchan Midori No Tanuki Instant Soba Bowl
Okay so here’s something completely different for the most part. You’ll possibly remember my review on Maruchan’s Kitsune Udon? Well, this looks the same except its in a bowl whose label has more of a green label. I found the name after a search on Google as all I could read was Oriental Noodles. So something interesting I found was what this stuff’s title translates to – green raccoon! Here’s an except from a page on thisnext.com:
#411: Sunlee Crab Flavour Instant Vermicelli
So here’s an interesting looking one. The noodles are made of mung bean! Bean thread! Let’s check out these noodles from Thailand!
#410: Lucky Me! Instant Bulalo (Bone Marrow Soup) Artificial Beef Flavor Instant Noodles
It’s been sitting in my big ramen box for quite a while now and been contemplating trying this one as of late. Got an email this morning from someone who read the article in the Herald about this site and this stuff was mentioned, so I thought no time like the present. Lucky me!
#409: Payless Instant Mami Chicken Flavor
So here’s something new by a name I’ve liked a lot in the past. I have always given high marks to Payless’ Pancit Canton varieties, but this is the first time with some Instant Mami. Mami? What is Mami?! Wikipedia says it is:
#408: Gomex 3 Mien Gomex 3 Miến Mì Tôm Chua Cay Hot Sour Shrimp Instant Noodles
So here’s the second of the Gomex noodles. I’ve never seen them other than the two I’ve rated – pretty interesting. They’re from Vietnam and sound interesting, so let’s give em’ a try…
The Ramen Rater Makes Front Page Everett Herald Newspaper
Awesome!!! Here’s the link so you can read online. I want to thank Noah Haglund and Dan Bates for their great work on the article and photography! Thanks again!
#407: Ottogi Snack Ramen Cup
Here’s a cup noodle from Korea’s Ottogi. It says it only takes 2 minutes to cook. Usually, you’re looking at 3 minutes! Such efficiency!
#406: Vifon Beef Flavor Mi Bo Asian Style Instant Noodles
So the other Vifon Asian Styleys have been great so far – so let’s see how this one fares. I like how their packaging for this line of products is nice and colorful.
#405: Ibumie Penang Harimee Prawn Flavour Mi Perisa Udang Instant Noodles
This is a brand new one from Malaysia I found at 99 Ranch today. Looks like it’ll rock!
#404: Vina Acecook Hảo Hảo Sate Onion Flavour
Hảo Hảo Hảo? I doubt whether John Lee Hooker enjoyed this stuff during his life, but let’s see if it’s any good.
#403: Maruchan Instant Lunch Lime Flavor With Shrimp Ramen Noodles With Vegetables
So this looks kind of interesting. Hmmm… I should make a list of the Maruchan Instant Lunches I’ve ingested and then I can go to the store and get all the ones I have not and then bam bam bam… Cheap noodle week!
#402: Sau Tao (Thick) Instant Noodle King Scallop Soup Flavor
I think this is the last of the Sau Tao’s I have for reviewing at this point. This one’s Scallop flavor with thick noodles. Again, these noodles aren’t fried. If you notice to the upper right of center, you are being informed that ‘Health is important.’ Looks like 4g fat and 7.5g fiber – not too bad actually.
#401: Myojo Suudon-Desse Soy Sauce Flavor Japanese Style Soup Noodles
So some of the comments I’ve received lately have been from folks who really liked Maruchan Kitsune Udon bowls. Unfortunately, those aren’t being produced anymore, at least for the USA. So I thought maybe to begin the 400’s here we’d look at a couple of Myojo’s bowls which I’ve found to be quite good.
#400: Nissin Cup Noodles Seafood Curry Flavour (Hong Kong)
So for the 400th review, I went with one I’ve thought should be interesting – seafood curry. These are Cup Noodles that are not for sale usually in the United States. I’ve found two – Crab Flavour and Seafood Flavour, but this Curry Seafood Flavour came from Canada.
#399: Paldo Spicy Seafood Flavor Noodle Soup Cup
Ah the fruits of the sea! I wonder if it’ll be a fishy spicy thing going on? I sure hope so…
#398: Paldo Bowl Noodle Soup Beef Flavor with Vegetable Instant Noodle Soup
So here’s perhaps the last or maybe next to last of the Paldo Bowl Noodle Soup line. These have been really good!
#397: Quickchow Quickie Cup Mami La Paz Batchoy
Something new – a cup noodle from the Philippines!
Two packets – dry seasoning on the left and a seasoned oil on the right.
#396: Vina Acecook Best Cook Hot & Spicy Tom Yum Shrimp Flavour Instant Noodles
So far I’ve been so pleased with the Vina Acecook products. Everything’s been so nice about them. So let’s try a new one – a bowl noodle this time.
#395: Ottogi Jin Ramen (Mild) Asian Style Instant Noodle Cup
I thought this looked interesting. I don’t usually see any kind of ‘mild’ flavors coming out of Korea, but here you see one. Here we go!
#394: Paldo Hwa Cup Noodle Soup Hot & Spicy Flavor
So today is the day of the supposed rapture, predicted by a fellow in Oakland, CA. He’s disappeared but The Ramen Rater hasn’t! So let’s check out these noodles from Korea!
#393: Kamfen Dried-Mix Noodles XO Sauce Flavoured
This one looked interesting. I really liked the Nissin Demae Iccho Ramen with XO Sauce, so I thought this would be good too hopefully.
#392: Nissin Yakisoba Noodles Karashi Flavor
I have to say, when I see a box like this with any kind of mayonnaise-like stuff going on, I get really hungry!
