#525: JML Instant Noodle Artificial Spicy Hot Beef Flavour
Here’s the last of the JML brand noodles from Greg B. of Florida. Looks like it will be hot and spicy!
#524: Nissin Cup Noodles Spicy Seafood Flavor Instant Ramen Noodles ( Hong Kong )
Whilst digging through my bin of packages of instant noodles for a particular one I was sent to review tomorrow, I realized I wasn’t hungry for a big pack tonight so went for the cup noodle you see here. Spicy seafood sounds relaxing.
#523: Dragonfly Artificial Hot & Sour Shrimp Flavor Instant Noodles
Hate to say it but this is the last of the Dragonfly brand bowls I found at H-Mart… Bummer! I guess there’s a pork flavor out there in this line so hopefully I’ll end up scoring that one next time I go to H-Mart. Hot & sour shrimp… Sounds like Tom Yum flavor… I guess we’ll see…
#522: Samyang Hot Beef Flavor Ramen
Was very happy to see this one at the store today! I really like Samyang stuff. I liked their regular bowl, cup, big bowl, pack, beef flavor… It’s good, spicy and straightforward Korean noodles.
#521: Menraku Japanese Ramen “Soy Sauce” Authentic Ramen Soup
Here’s another Menraku coming atcha. Been weird the last two days; gotten over 10,000 visits to the blog from people using StumbleUpon and ending up on the ‘Recipes’ page… Pretty cool! Anyways, this looks like an interesting bowl of noodles and should be tasty. Let’s dig in.
#520: Nan Hsing Vegetarian Rice Noodles
This one seems a little unique. I never have seen something like a swastika on a bowl of noodles before – its somewhat foreboding to be honest! Taiwanese noodles with swastikas… Well, I figured I’d better look this up and got this nice piece of information from Wikipedia:
#519: Snapdragon Pan-Asian Cuisine Beijing Vegetable Rice Noodle Soup
Sheesh – almost 20% through the 500’s – didn’t expect that to happen so quickly! So here we have the Snapdragon cup, Beijing Vegetable. I got it locally but if you want to try it you can get it here. These have been pretty good so far – let’s see how the veggies do…
#518: Dragonfly Artificial Chicken Flavor Instant Noodles
This is a big bowl of noodles from China. So far, I’ve tried Dragonfly’s Onion, Seafood and Beef flavors. I’m really happy with how nice those have been and eager to try this one!
#517: Thai Kitchen Thai Ginger Instant Rice Noodle Soup
So I let my wife pick between two packs of noodles and she picked this as the one I should eat today! Thai Ginger sounds really good to me – I like Thai flavors and I like ginger a lot. Let’s see how this tastes!
#516: Wang Champong Spicy Seafood Noodles
Here’s a new one – Wang brand. It’s a fresh noodle big bowl from Korea.
As you can see, big and from Korea.
#515: Tradition Instant Noodle Soup Imitation Beef Flavor
Here’s some more kosher aisle ramen. This stuff was previously purchased but never reviewed. Why?
#514: Shirakiku Sanukiya Fresh Spicy Ramen Japanese Style Fresh Noodle
Haven’t had a fresh noodle bowl in a while. This one comes from Shirakiku and claims to be a hot one. It definitely looks nice on the packaging. I’m still under the weather so the spicy stuff helps with the sinuses!
#513: Dragonfly Artificial Onion Flavor Instant Noodles
I was kind of tripped out by this bowl of noodles: artificial onion? Why would they need to go the artificial route on this one? Well, why don’t I look at the ingredients. Oh look! Onion powder and onion oil. I’m confused… Anyways, here we go…
#512: Paldo Big Bowl Noodle Authentic! Hot & Spicy Instant Noodle With Soup Base
Hey it’s the 600yj post! That’s overall – not just reviews obviously. Okay so this is one really big bowl. It’s about the size of a 45 RPM record! About as deep as a regular bowl noodle. Been waiting for the right day for this one – I’m sick and my nose is clogged and sore throat, aches and pains, etcetera. This should do the trick – hot and spicy Korean noodles!
#511: Menraku Japanese Ramen “Miso” Authentic Ramen Soup
I woke up with a sore throat, runny nose, sore joints and a bit of sneezing. I’m sick. This sucks. I thought maybe some miso would bring me back from the brink. I guess we’ll see how it goes…
#510: Snapdragon Pan-Asian Cuisine Korean Kimchi Rice Noodle Soup
Here’s the second of four of these I got at the new Bellevue Uwajimaya last month.
Two packets – yup again it looks like the Koka seasoning packet! The seasoning has a powder compartment as well as an oil compartment. the green packet is veggies.
#509: Ve Wong Kung-Fu Shrimp Flavor Instant Oriental Noodle Soup
Shramp! Nothin’ like shramp! Ami I wrong? AM I??? Well, I like shrimp and so today I will ingest a bowl of Ve Wong Shrimp flavor instant noodle soup from Taiwan. ‘Nuff said.
#508: Samyang Ramen Beef Flavor Cup Noodle Soup
So far I’ve tried the big bowl, the pack, and now it’s the cup. I generally enjoy this stuff so figuring I’ll like this one too. Here we go!
#507: Dragonfly Artificial Seafood Flavor Instant Noodles
Ah! Today it’s breakfast later than normal so breaking out the big bowl action! Seafood flavor sounded good and going to add a couple of eggs to it too.
#506: Nongshim Oolongmen Cup Noodle Soup With Artificial Beef Flavor
Today there was an open six pack of these so I decided even with a zillion ramens I’d get this one to try. Oolongmen!
#505: JML Artificial Spicy Beef Flavour Instant Noodle
Here’s another that Floridian Greg B. sent me a while back. Spicy beef, eh? Sounds good to me!
#504: Knorr Pizza Instant Noodles
Yes, that’s right – it’s pizza flavored noodles. More interesting? They’re from Pakistan! So here’s yet another show of force in international fusion cuisine! Pizza is Italian, ramen noodles are a Japanese thing, and Pakistan is, well, another country! Well, let’s dig in!
#503: GreeNoodle Miso Made With Moroheiya
After the last time I reviewed anything by this brand, I got quite a few messages – agreeing with me, disagreeing with me, and even thinking I sold this stuff. Well, all I know is that I didn’t like it last time. At all really.
#502: Sunlee Pho Bo Instant Rice Stick Artificial Beef Flavour Bowl
So this looks interesting – a square bowl! It’s also Sunlee brand which I’ve enjoyed in the past. Got this at a nice little shop in Anaheim while we were doing Disneyland.
#501: Nongshim Neoguri Udon Type Noodles Mild Seafood
Let’s start the road to 1000 reviews with this gem I’ve been looking for for a while now. I really like the regular old Neoguri and hopefully I like this one too.
#500: Mexi-Ramen Soupless Ramen Shallot Teriyaki Flavor
9/28/2024 – Update – Back on September 9th, 2011, I published this post – it was an early time in my reviewing – many things have changed since then; I used to use a phone to take pictures of products – I think it was a Blackberry Curve at the time. As I’m only a handful of reviews to #5000, it’s really weird to look at this compared to how I present reviews now. Anyways, there’s a video at the bottom I made at the time.
#499: Dragonfly Artificial Beef Flavor Instant Noodles
I was quite happy to see a few new big bowl style instant noodles when I was at an Asian grocery the other day, especially Dragonfly brand – I think I’ve only reviewed a single solitary Dragonfly instant noodle thus far. Now I think there’s at least four or five to do! Well, let’s start with this one. Beefalicious? Let’s hope so – I mean it IS the review before the big psychological number 500!
#498: Hsin Tung Yang Tiny Noodle With Oyster Flavor
So while we were in California doing the Disneyland thing this summer, we went to a Ranch 99 and I got this. Never seen anything quite like it before; a fresh noodle bag, Chinese, and said it was enough for six people! I guess it’s time to give it a shot.
#497: Nissin Demae Iccho Instant Macaroni In Soup Seafood And Abalone Flavour
My sister brought these back for me from Canada a while back and I’ve been coveting them for a special occasion. I thought closing in on the 500th review would be a good time to break out the tippy macaroni! So here we go!
#496: Maruchan Yakisoba With Shrimp
Got this one at Walmart. Was pretty sure I hadn’t tried it and was right so here goes.
#495: Ottogi Jin Ramen (Mild) Asian Style Instant Noodle
I’m going to guess that this is about the same as the Ottogi Jin Ramen (Hot) except it will lack the heat. Yeah that makes sense I think.
#494: Snapdragon Pan Asian Cuisine Tomato Seafood Rice Noodle Soup
I got a few of these not too long ago and so here’s the first of them. The top is a clear cover.
#493: Pulmuone Fresh Ramen (Spicy)
Something from a brand I’ve never seen before. This is a Korean fresh noodle and I’m hoping it’s good and spicy!
#492: Noah Foods Phoya Rice Noodsle Soup With Beef Flavor
Never seen this before – I also got a chicken variety as well I’ll review a bit down the road. I like the name – Phoya… Maybe there could be a froyo and pho place called PhoYo? Ya!
#491: JML Instant Noodle Artificial Stew Beef Flavour
Here’s another one that arrived in the east coast care package from Greg B. of Orlando, FL. This time its stew beef flavor – let’s go!
#490: FoodMon DJ-DOC Instant Ramen Rice Toppokki
First things first. My wife pointed this out at a Korean supermarket here in town and I was like ‘what the heck is this?’ So we got it and I’ve had some issues with it. First, I had a lot of problems finding out how to cook it. Also, what was it called??? As you can see, there’s one of those funky square bar codes on top of the container here. I went and scanned it with my Android phone and sent it to the Google translate. Click here to see what it comes up with…
#489: JML Instant Noodle Artificial Stew Pork Flavour
So here’s the first one I’m reviewing that were sent by Greg B. of Orlando, FL. He says it’s really good stuff and so I’ll give it a shot!
#488: Kailo Brand Big Bowl Noodle Instant Noodle Crab Flavor
So here’s another one of these big bowls! Crab flavor sounds nice!
Again three packets of seasoning – clockwise from top: veggies, seasoned oil and dry powder seasoning.
#487: Kailo Brand Big Bowl Noodle Instant Noodle Artificial Chicken Flavour
Here’s a new brand – Kailo! This is a big bowl of noodles too – and what an odd image on the front. But hey, how can chicken be fouled (it’s already been fowled HAHAHAHAHA – bad I know but I’m full of noodles now) it’s such a basic flavor. So here we go! UPDATE – This stuff is actually ABALONE CHICKEN – that explains a lot.
