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.
Tag: Noodles
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…
#108: Teriyaki Time Ramen
So for my #100 review, I thought since being jabbed at recently about not having ramen from a restaurant, I’d better try it out. Long story short, I found this bowl rather lackluster. Not very spicy. The noodles were very nice, but the egg wasn’t much. I was left wanting… Something more… I had to give it 2.0 of 5.0 stars
#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.
#97: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Mi Tom Chua Sour Shrimp Flavor Instant Noodles Vietnam Flavor
So today I thought I’d try some more of these interesting Vietnamese noodles. Yesterday’s review was very enjoyable – especially with the little thing about ‘spicery’ on the packet. So here we go with Sour Shrimp Flavor. Yup – another really long named instant noodle pack. I’m kind of liking it.
#96: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Pork Flavor Instant Noodle Vietnam Flavor
So I thought why not – a sunny day here in Edmonds. Pork? Yes, pork sir. After my sweety had some Unif stewed pork noodles a couple weeks ago I thought I’d best try some form of pork noodles. Other than Maruchan’s entry into the pork race that is. So here we are. Quite possibly the longest name in noodles so far, Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Pork Flavor Instant Noodles Vietnam Flavor.
#95: Wei Lih Instant Noodles With Artificial Beef Flavored Soup Stock
So here’s the second Wei Lih product to enter my stomach through my facehole. Artificial beef flavored stock huh? Is that what you get when you boil an artificial Steer with flowers on its head?
#94: MAMA Artificial Chicken Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Okay so first off, here we go with the MAMA noodles. I really didn’t expect to like these but what can I say – not too bad. Mi Ga it says on the top left – Ga means chicken in Vietnamese – I know that much. Interesting as this is a Thai product.
#93: Payless Pancit Canton Xtra Big Original Flavor
So here’s something new. I’ve been avoiding it a bit as I wasn’t sure if I really would like it. But I remembered I’m the ramenrater, fearing no ramen and all that crap so here it is. The big one. My review’s preview is simple (think of this said with an extremely strong hwhuh sound on each word) Hwow – this stuff hwas hwonderful and I hwould eat is daily.
#92: Fashion Food Tom Yum Seafood Creamy Flavour Instant Noodles
So this was a neat little presentation. Came with its own bowl and lid – looks to be reusable as well.
#90: Long Kow Crystal Noodle Soup 6 Kinds of Mushrooms
Click image to enlarge. Slightly spicy. The mushrooms don’t actually have a lot of flavor. The mushrooms were a bit mushy. There’s some yellow stuff that I don’t know what it is… The little yellow bits taste like egg… The noodles are good but they’re hard to eat – they don’t want to stay on a fork and are slimy. I wouldn’t say this stuff is anything special. 2.3 out of 5 stars. Get it here.
#89: Unif – 100 Artifical Stewed Pork Chop Flavor Instant Noodles
This is Christine’s first official ramenrater appearance! Look for more reviews by her soon!
#88: Paldo Korean Noodle Chicken Flavor
So I think its kind of funny – the last ramen I rated was Wai Wai Tom Yum Shrimp – it used only 1 1/3c of water. This stuff used 2 3/4 cups – the most called for yet! This is Paldo Korean Noodle Chicken flavor. This’ll be my first review of a Paldo product.
#87: Wai Wai Tom Yum Shrimp Cream Soup Flavour Instant Noodles
So here we go with some Wai Wai. This stuff is made in Thailand and the noodles can be eaten straight out of the bag like a bag of chips. This was a much smaller package than usually seen here on ramenrater.com. In fact, the directions call for a mere 1 1/3 cups of water [320cc] instead of the usual 2 to 2 1/2 cups.
#86: Unif / Tung-I Onion Flavor Ramen Noodles
So was thinking what ramen to pick today and then saw this. On special for 33 cents I couldn’t pass it up. I also got a 33 cent bunch of green onions for the dinner I’m making tonight so a pretty cheap trip to the ole 99 Ranch. So Onion flavor – should be interesting…
Uwajimaya – Bellevue
So here’s some interesting ones I picked up at the Bellevue Uwajimaya today. I usually walk to 99 Ranch to get a different package of noodles every day, but these are all ones that they don’t have there. Some unique stuff here! I imagine I’ll get down to the Uwajimaya in Seattle and end up with some more unique stuff there .
#85: Nissin Demae Ramen Noodle With Sesame Oil
I last tried this variety when I was about 15 years old I think and I absolutely hated it. I have been avoiding it like the plague ever since. I suppose 20 years later, its time for another go.
#84: Samyang Kal Gug Su Assorted Clam Flavor Korean Style Non-Frying Noodles
So here’s something I’ve had in the cupboard for a while and been kind of waiting for just the right time to try. Assorted clams – hmm. An assortment of clams. It just sounds really strange. I guess we’ll see what we got here.
#83: Nissin Demae Ramen Spicy Flavor Instant Noodles
I think after this, sesame flavor and spicy seafood flavors are left! So let’s get it on with the spicy flavor! Woo haw!
#81: Unif / Tung-I Spicy Beef Flavor Noodles
So it was ‘Summer Exotica Days’ at 99 Ranch and had me, Kitten and Andy all together trying new stuff. Andy tried some furikake on rice, bean thread noodles, plum and green tea drink ad shrimp wontons. Kitten picked my ramen today – the picture of the cartoon cow did it for her.
#80: Unif / Tung-I Artificial Chicken Ramen Noodles
Hot out this morning! Walked over to 99 Ranch for my daily fix.
I was in the mood for something a little different and picked something new and kind of safe. My stomach’s been a little funky – gut-bomb burritos in enchilada sauce and ice cream last night I wager.
#79: Sapporo Ichiban Kitsune Udon Japanese Style Noodles
Today, Kit & I walked to 99 Ranch Market together which was a lot of fun. I wanted to pick an interesting instant noodle to review, so I went with this one – Sapporo Ichiban Kitsune Udon.
#78: Nissin Demae Ramen Seafood Flavor Instant Noodle
Seeing things like this make me want to break out into a musical number like Peter does on Family Guy. Nothing more lovely than a huge mountain of instant noodles. I really enjoy seeing such things. Today, I got an extra ingredient for dinner, but I’m also going to toss it in the instant noodles too so we’ll see if it works.
#77: Nissin Demae Ramen Prawn Flavor Instant Noodles
Today’s walk to the Asian supermarket was a lot of fun. Was nice to be able to chat with my lady on the phone whilst perusing the noodle aisle of 99 Ranch Market. I gave her the choice of which I should get – Miso, Seafood or Prawn flavor Nissin Demae ramen. I had a feeling she’d go for the prawn flavor…
#76: Indomie Rasa Baso Sapi Meatball Flavor Instant Noodles
So today I made Kitten some noodles for breakfast! This is some tasty stuff!
Seasoning powder, seasoned oil. That’s it. This is pretty surprising for an Indomie pack of noodles as there’s usually a ton of different packets. She didn’t want it too spicy so I kept the chili powder out of the mix.
#75: Indomie Mi Goreng Rendang Instant Noodles
Ah the glorious 99 Ranch Market. It takes about 40 minutes to walk there (at a very fast walk), pick out some noodles and then walk home.
#74: Nissin Demae Ramen Shoyu Flavor Instant Noodles
So this is one of the few flavors left at 99 Ranch Market for me to try to here we go. Felt like a rather we stuffed package which gave me hopes of an interesting and unique meal with surprises and multiple packets…
#73: Nissin Demae Ramen Five Spices Artificial Beef Flavor Instant Noodles
I’ve been enjoying trying every flavor of Nissin Demae that 99 Ranch carries lately, so onward we go with the five spices artificial beef flavor.
#70: Nissin Demae Ramen XO Sauce Seafood Flavor
I figured this’d be a good gamble. Seafood flavor ramen usually isn’t my thing, but what the heck, let’s be adventurous!
