#1032: MAMA Authentic Thai Cuisine Pad Thai
I reviewed the instant in a smaller pack quite a while ago. It’s got a few seasoning packets and this one only has one big packet. Definitely not instant as the instructions ask for an interesting preparation method. Let’s dig in!
#1004: Wai Wai Artificial Pork Flavor Instant Noodles
Here’s a little pack of Wai Wai noodles!
Here’s the sticker put on by the distributor.
#994: Wai Wai Tom Yum Shrimp Flavour
Hey look – Tom Yum Shrimp! I really like Tom Yum – spicy, lemon, and shrimp! Let’s check this one out.
#990: Nissin Pan Asian Kitchen Spicy Pad Thai Flavor Ramen Noodles
Found this one while strolling through our new Walmart Neighborhood Market just north of here. It’s kind of like you take a Walmart, make it a Super Walmart and then ditch the Walmart part so it’s just groceries. Found this is the Asian foods section and not with the Top Ramen and Cup Noodle. Kind of weird.
Re-Review: MAMA Jumbo Pack Pork Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
I’ve been having fun re-reviewing these MAMA packs lately – it’s been a while that’s for sure. Here’s another one – pork flavor. It probably won’t be like a Tom Yum kind of thing, so I’m curious how it’s going to taste.
A New Thai Chili Sauce From Apinya Thai Food Co.!
I saw something about a Thai chili sauce mentioned on my favorite hot sauce group on facebook recently. It got me wondering if it would be something that could be an alternative to the standard big bottle of Sriracha that I usually go for. I tracked down the company and asked if they could possibly send a sample – a few days later, it arrived!
#940: Wai Wai Sour Soup Flavour Instant Noodles
Wai Wai? Because, because! I know, pretty stupid but I like to say it. I thought I’d reviewed this one before but lo and behold it stands unreviewed! This is a Thai variety and should be something interesting I hope. Let’s check it out!
#937: MAMA Shrimp Flavour (TOM YUM) Oriental Style Instant Noodles
NOTE – This was originally catalogued as a ‘Re-Review’ but actually hadn’t reviewed it before. Therefore, I am correcting this and making it the next successive review, which is #937.
Re-Review: MAMA Shrimp Creamy Tom Yum Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Went to 99 Ranch Market yesterday and picked these up. I reviewed them way back – #136 – over two years ago. I gave them 2.0 out of 5.0 stars. Many of your have commented on how much you enjoy it and so I think I’ll give it another chance. I’ve found varieties from back then are more to my liking now.
#922: Sunlee Shitake Mushroom Instant Vermicelli
Here’s one we got during our summer vacation. Found it at the Uwajimaya in Beaverton, Oregon. Mushrooms… Well, Let’s give it a go!
#915: Wai Wai Casserole Beef Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodle
Here’s something new I found at H Mart. Casserole huh? Beef sounds good. By the way – underneath the sticker on the front it says ‘Beef Flavour.’ Let’s check it out.
#902: Sunlee Pho Bo Instant Rice Stick Beef Flavour
I reviewed another version of this in #502. It looks like this one is somewhat different; different color packet and a different sized rice noodle chunk. Let’s try it!
#875: Sunlee Artificial Chicken Flavour Rice Vermicelli
Here’s one from Thailand – Sunlee. Rice noodles eh… Alright, let’s give it a try.

Stewed duck flavor time. This one came from Michelle L. of New York – thanks again! This is the last of the ones she sent – let’s give it a try.
#856: Little Cook Mushroom Vegetarian Premium Noodle
Here’s another onbe sent by Michelle L. of New York – thanks! This is made in Thailand and says it’s mushroom flavor. Well, let’s give it a go.
#833: Wai Wai Instant Vegetarian Noodle
I can’t even imagine how long ago I last reviewed anything from Wai Wai – pretty stoked on it! Let’s try seom Thai noodles!
#820: Sunlee Tom Yum Shrimp Flavour Instant Rice Stick
Today is probably the hottest day we’re going to have in Western Washington this summer. Right now it’s 88 degrees! I thought a nice bowl of spicy noodles would go well with it. I mean, isn’t it hot in Thailand too?
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time
* UPDATE * See here.
A couple of days ago, I received an email from a man who was angry. He was angry that the instant noodles he bought said that they were spicy Chicken flavor but weren’t spicy whatsoever and that I needed to change the seasonings ASAP. Every once in a while, I get a comment or email from someone who thinks that I make instant noodles or am affiliated with an instant noodle company. I decided to reply and do a review of the product he had problems with, adding some hot spices, sauces and peppers from around the world to really heat it up. It then occurred to me that a lot of people really like spicy instant noodles and that there’s really no list of the hottest ones out there. I figured I’d better do something about that, and so here’s the Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time!
#808: Kim’s Bowl Vegetarian Tom Yum Flavor
Exactly one year ago as I type this, we were taking a break from Disneyland and doing a couple other things. Well, one thing we did was go to a little market and I got this instant noodle bowl.
#804: Little Cook Instant Noodle Abalone Chicken Soup Flavour
#773: Little Cook Instant Noodle TVP Stewed Pork Flavor
Here’s another one that was sent in by Michelle L. of New York, New York – thanks again! TVP? What’s TVP? Well, I’ve had it quite a few times before. TVP stands for ‘textured vegetable protein’ and is basically fake meat. Usually you couldn’t get pork in a packet coming from Thailand into the states – fake pork on the other hand is doable.
#767: Fashion Food Mushroom Flavour Vegetarian Instant Noodle
Here’s another one of the Fashion Food varieties.
The noodle block.
Dry seasoning packet
#766: Fashion Food Beef Pho Flavour Instant Noodles
#761: Thai Kitchen Garlic & Vegetable Instant Rice Noodle Soup
#707: Namchow Mee Jang Noodle Soup Spicy Beef Garlic & Onion
Here’s another of these Mee Jang Noodle Soups. I like the label – if you aren’t keen on reading and just scan a bowl of instant food and decide to eat, watch out for this stuff! So far I’ve found these to be quite spicy! Let’s see how this one comes out!
#689: Namchow Mee Jang Noodle Soup Sour Spicy Shrimp (Tom Yum)
Here’s the first review I’m doing with my new camera! No more Blackberry 8900 camera – now I’ll be using a Sony Cybershot 14.1MP! Should look better now, hopefully! Today I decided to dig out this bowl – it’s one my wife got for me for my birthday at Uwajimaya. Let’s give it a looksie!
#665: MAMA Instant Rice Vermicelli Moo Nam Tok Flavour
This one came from Greg B. of Marathon, Florida – thanks, Greg! What the heck is Moo Nam Tok supposed to taste like? From Wikipedia:
#664: Thai Kitchen Bangkok Curry Instant Rice Noodle Soup
Curry. Always sounds good to me! Thai curry usually is a very tasty thing to behold – let’s see if this pack does it justice.
The Ramen Rater: Noodle News #5
As always, I scour the Internet searching from news about instant noodles. Here’s some articles that you may find interesting:
#654: Namchow Mee Jang Noodle Soup Sour Spicy Chicken (Tom Yum)
This is a pretty generic looking bowl of instant noodles. However, they’re from Thailand and boast a hot and spicy Tom Yum flavor – Hopefully they’re really good!
#647: Sunlee Instant Noodle Tom Yum Shrimp Flavour
Cool – a Sunlee bowl. I’ve had a couple of these before – they were crab flavored and really quire good. Tom Yum soup is one of my favorites and hopefully since this is from Thailand, it should be pretty good.
#642: Little Cook Instant Noodles Spicy Beef Cup
#638: GreeNoodle Yakisoba
Ah, my old adversary – the GreeNoodle! I’m hoping I like this one better than the ones I’ve had in the past – Yakisoba should be tasty; I hope!
#637: Snapdragon Pan-Asian Cuisine Chinese Mushroom Rice Noodle Soup
#636: Yamamori Tom Yam Ramen Pork Flavor(Tomyankun Ramen Porkfu)
After tasting those last two earlier, I was ready to have something that looked really good – and here it is! Tom Yam noodles, made in Thailand and from Japan!

Here’s another one that’s been needing a quick review. This was purchased in July of last year in California!

Made a trip to Seattle and hit up Uwajimaya and got a ton of new noodles – lots of Japanese bowls! Anyways, let’s start with this prawn tom yam…
#614: Fuku Superior Soup Instant Rice Noodle
Here’s one my sister got when she was up in Canada earlier this year! Let’s see how they fare.
#605: Little Cook Instant Noodles Artificial Flavored Onion Flavor Cup
Here’s another sent by Michelle L. of New York – thanks again! Send pics of where you put the stickers! This one looks interesting; on top as an afterthought is printed ‘ARTIFICIAL FLAVORED,’ although I do see dried onion in the ingredients. Weird. That said, here’s the noods.
