Some hot & spicy up in here!
Clockwise from top left: powder soup base, veggies and shrimp, ‘soup booster.
#258: Royal Umbrella Tom Yum Shrimp Instant Cup Noodle
So here’s something new – Royal Umbrella. A cup noodle from Thailand – Tom Yum isn’t a surprise as far as the flavor.
#254: Vina Acecook Daily Instant Noodle Hot & Spicy Tom Yum
So on our very recent trip to a new Asian grocery, we found a lot of products by Vina Acecook. So there will be a few reviews by them coming at you fast and furious! First off, some Tom Yum! One thing real quick though – notice on the top of the package label where it says ‘Made With Japanese Technology?’ Didn’t find really anything about the Japanese technology anywhere but did find this sitting in a lonely corner of the web:
#230: Lucky Me! Supreme Instant Mami Noodles with Free Crackers Artificial Chicken Flavor
Enjoy. Do it enjoy.
So here’s some chicken flavor bowl noodles hmm? Free crackers…
#227: Quickchow Bihon Guisado Instant Rice Noodles Saute
So I had the Pancit Canton the other day. Let’s see if these do a bit better…
Powder, seasoned oil, soy sauce and veggies.
#221: Nissin Top Ramen Beef Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup
Yep – surprising isn’t it? When you see that I’ve reviewed well over 200 unique packs of instant noodles to think that I haven’t done beef flavored Top Ramen yet. So here we go!
#216: Maruchan Instant Lunch Roast Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodles With Vegetables
Roast chicken? As opposed to the regular chicken eh? Okay I’m game…
Powder base and veggies in with the noodles. awaiting the pain of the boiling water.
#156: Maruchan Instant Lunch Cajun Style with Chili Piquin & Shrimp Ramen Noodles With Vegetables
So continuing the cavalcade of cup soups, here we have some Maruchan Instant Lunch. Not a very standard rameny flavor but we’ll see how it tastes.
#125: Shirakiku Japanese Style Noodle Tokusen Karami Ramen
So here’s a new one… Never tried Shirakiku ramen before! So here goes..
One solitary packet of powder.
#121: Ottogi Bekse Curry Myon
So the new place I found, Boo Han Oriental Market, is really making me happy already. Looky here, looky here – curry ramen!
#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.
#118: Paldo Bibim Men Oriental Style Noodle
So sometimes I’m looking for some new ramen and see it but it only seems to come in a 5 pack. Nowhere else in the noodle aisle do they have it… That’s really annoying! This was one such variety but I finally found it at a new Asian market I found today out of nowhere across from 99 Ranch Market in Edmonds. Anyways, here’s Paldo brand Bibim Men Oriental Style Noodle
#539 & #540: Challenge: Nissin Demae Ramen Chicken Flavor versus Nissin Top Ramen Chicken Flavor Instant Noodles
So I thought why not do a head to head – same company, should be same noodles right? First off the left is the Demae Ramen, more of the kind that you would find in Japan or Hong Kong and to the right is the United States version. The Demae is a bigger brick of noodles and says it is one serving while the Top Ramen is smaller yet says it is two servings.
#537: MAMA Instant Noodle Pad Kee Mao Flavour (Drunken Noodles)
MAMA Pad Kee Mao… The pack is shiny and shows a seriously elaborate dish… Not really much of anything in English on this one.
#536: Ottogi Yeul Ramyon Hot Taste
Look at those big deadly looking red peppers! This should be interesting. Usually stuff you’d find around here domestically would be on the weak side if it had a pepper being shown. We’ll have to see if this stuff lives up to the flavor of hot taste! I’m also very curious if I like this better than Shin Ramyun. I’ve really been enjoying the Ottogi products…
#535: Wai Wai Instant Noodles Chicken Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodle
So here are Wai Wai instant chicken flavor noodles. Hmm.
I really liked the packaging of the sachets. The ‘essence’ was interesting to be sure. The chili packet wasn’t used as my 5 year old had this bowl of noodles but i opened it and tried them. Spicy sun peppers – nothing shocking. Then, a blue packet with oil.
#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.
#533: Paldo Gomtang Oriental Style Noodles With Soup Base
Gomtang huh? Sounds like a Star Trek alien creature that’s been traveling possibly hundreds of thousands of years across space to find it’s final resting place in the vicinity of a star about to go nova. But I don’t think that’s what they’re going for here.
#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…
#115: Ottogi Miso Ramyon Oriental Style Instant Noodle
Another package of Korean ramen. This looks interesting – Miso flavor…
This is a trip – both are powder packets. I usually see a powder and an oil but rarely two powders.
The Ramen Rater Mentioned In Technorati Article
Check it out – I thought it was pretty neat to get mentioned as a website to do research! Here’s the link.
#114: Samyang Ramen Kimchi: Korean Kimchi Flavor Noodle Soup
Okay a little while ago I was asked as to why I hadn’t reviewed any Kim Chee flavored noodles… So here we go with some Samyang…
#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.
#112: Ottogi Jjajang Noodle Asian Style Instant Noodle
So look! More Korean noodles! Let’s see what we’ve got here! Certainly looks interesting but I have no idea what it is. Black bean paste is mentioned prominently in the ingredients, so perhaps that’s the flavor? Upon digging around a bit, I found this from Wikipedia:
#111: Ottogi Odongtong Myon Seafood Spicy Flavor Asian Style Instant Noodle
A lot of people have been commenting on my old reviews of Korean noodles. So After going to a couple big Korean supermarkets, I’m going to be trying a lot more Korean instant noodles. This one looks straightforward: spicy seafood.
Where To Get It: 99 Ranch Market
So this place is really nice – they have a wide variety of pretty much everything.
99 Ranch Market
Where To Get It: Pal-Do World
NOTE: Paldo World is no longer at this location. However, there’s a new Korean supermarket called KS Mart.
#110: Lucky Me! Artificial Chicken Flavor
So here’s a little pack of noodles I picked up at H Mart by Lucky Me! brand. Good ole chicken flavor.
#109: MAMA Instant Pad Thai Noodles
So some Pad Thai by MAMA. This should be interesting – I’ve had Pad Thai before at a restaurant and its not too bad so we’ll see how it stands up here.
Where To Get It: H Mart with UPDATE!!!
Holy moly freaking god look at the size of that place. It’s an enormous Korean grocery much like Paldo World in Lynnwood – and guess what – this place iis in Lynnwood too…
#107: Ottogi Pow Crunch Teriyaki Flavor Original Noodle Snack
So we went to a new place today called H Mart – more on that later! So this is something weird from Korea I just has to try – however, it wasn’t really weird at all!
#106: GreeNoodle Tom Yum Flavor
So today here’s review #98 – the weird GreeNoodle… These noodles contain some kind of weird ingredient called moroheiya. “Moroheiya is a super vegetable that is more nutritious than spinach, carrots, or borccoli in most aspects” is written on the back and cite as a quote by the ‘Japanese Ministry.’ although which Ministry that would be is unclear to me.
#105: Indomie Mie Keriting Goreng Spesial Special Fried Curly Noodles
So here she is. Ultra tasty and ready for preparation. There is only one slightly better and its about the same but has a soup base packet inside which goes great with it.
#104: Maruchan Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup
So yeah – really. I haven’t reviewed the standard chicken flavor Maruchan seen on every store shelf from here to hell and back. So it’s time. Chicken time!
#103: Ve Wong Oriental Style Instant Noodles Vegetarian Flavor Soup Base
So some more Ve Wong – I think this is the 95th unique variety of instant noodles I’ve tried! Here we go!
#100: Unif / Tung-I Artificial Chinese Beef Flavor Instant Rice Noodles
Been awhile since I’ve had rice noodles – let alone artificial Chinese beef flavored broth!
#99: Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Onion Flavor Instant Oriental Noodles Soup
So today we have some artificial onion flavor noodles. New flavor eh? That’s pretty awesome! This packet is rather fascinating though…
#98: Unif / Tung-I Chah Chiang Flavor Ramen Noodles
Okay so thought I’d try something with an odd name today. Yes, I thought of the money ch-ching sound too when I read the flavor… It’s a Taiwanese flavor from what I found on Google – spicy and oniony.
