The smell of seafood on this one was quite pungent; it brought back memories of those boring as hell fishing trips I went on as a kid (I hate fishing). I immediately started to think I may regret todays ramen option. Sufficient block; acceptable. The nood block was sufficient; hefty serving, a smaller gauge ...
Hannibal the Cownibal strikes! This was quite a tasty dish, if a bit light on chunks of goodness. This nood goes back to tried and true ramen basics: a hearty beef broth with a bit of peppery spice to round out the flavour. But I do feel the dish was a little too basic, it really struggles to stand out from a crowd ...
Well, right out of the gate, I screwed the pooch on this one by absent mindedly throwing Kam's fried onions in the bin, he may never forgive me. I had to sacrifice my noods with the fried onions for my incompetence and eat his without the fried goodies. Seems to be the standard Indonesian noodle block ...
Oh boy; the little brother of emart's Habanero Ramen! We loved the Habanero Ramen; the flavour was amazing but it was just so damn hot! I was hoping that this may be the kid bro version so that my delicate mouth could rest easier today; all the taste, less heat. Let's find out! This block is satisfactory; I am pleased ...
Smells like...seafood...again You know, something I've learned these past few weeks is not to disregard a ramen just because it wreaks of seafood. I love seafood; but when that smell is coming from a packet of noodles you kind of get a bit put off. Can't explain it. That being said these ...
At first I thought I'd f**ked the cooking of this ramen, the packet is.... esoteric in its instructions, and light on friendly pictures for the silly farang. Preparing this is a bit nerve wracking, as the flavour sachets do not appear to be mixing well with the water so you could be excused for thinking this is a 'dry' noodle. However further perusal ...
I was excited for these ones; who doesn't love Miso Soup? And I definitely love Ramen. So this seemed like a winning combination! A nice hefty block of thin noodles The noodles only came with one sachet; that was a little disappointing. Where is the roughage? Don't I need some seaweed in my Miso ...
Ooooweeee I was excited for these noodles. i had been eyeing off our table thinking to myself, this is going to be great. When the time came to cook, Kam informed me that they are to be served cold, that's when things got weird. There was no perforation where the arrow was pointing; so we ignored the instructions and opened from the top ...
Well, Maggi week is over (praise Jebus) and this was a nice change of pace; had that spice going on. Flavour-wise, the package claims it's pork (only thing that was in english) but it tasted to me more like a veggie based broth. Spice on spice on spice - this beat my palette around like Chris beat Rhianna - and ...
That noodle block...so glorious Our grand finale to seafood week, this ramen knocked it out of the park with the quality of the noodles and a good show of force with the broth. Just look at those noodles: even before they were rehydrated they looked tasty, and the proof is in the puddin'. The noodles took a while ...
An inviting red mess... Seafood Ramen week for me is a nightmare, I love seafood, but seafood flavoured things are to me the worst. I was pleasantly surprised by these noodles though, the seafood flavour was very mild and more there to add a bit of depth of flavour. I am more partial to ramen that do not have an accompanying broth of liquid ...
Because this was a broth noodle; eating this wasn't so bad. The heat being in the broth means that you really don't sustain much damage to your mouth while eating; after a few mouthfuls there's a bit of a tingle in your lips but you can work through it with relative ease. As you near completion of the ...
