Found this one the other day at 99 Ranch Market. This one is interesting as the range is very easy to find here, however there was a lot of confusion whether it was another brand – Master Kang. Master Kang translates to Kang Shi Fu, and also has a little chef guy for it’s logo. I remember getting a phone call from a lawyer about it a long time ago asking my opinion on it. It’s been such a long time though that I’m guessing that whatever legal issues were involved are probably kaput at this point, so here we are. Soyed beef – is that like corned beef? Interesting. Let’s cook this stuff up.

#4749: Knorr Shrimp Broth Quick Serve Macaroni – Hong Kong
But that’s not ramen! The throng of people screamed in unison! They wept openly. Well, that was silly – this one could be found on the instant ramen aisle . This is popular stuff in Hong Kong and I found it locally and figure hey why not. Macaroni only seems to enjoy the company of cheese here, but not elsewhere. Let’s cook.
#4726: Chewy Seafood Flavour Quick Serve Macaroni – Hong Kong
Another one found at S*Mart. I know, it’s not ramen or instant noodles per se, however it’s something you might find on the instant noodle aisle as I did. Usually these aren’t bad – definitely not a thick broth or anything, but a nice flavor and thin walled macaroni. First found this kind of thing years back in Canada with some Nissin varieties. Anyways, let’s proceed.

#3930: Doll Ramen Noodles Shrimp Wonton Flavour – Hong Kong
I must admit, it’s been an interesting stroll down memory lane retrying these about ten years after I had them previously.

This one I remember being quite nice. Let’s check it out!

He mentioned what I figure was this one, so seemed right to me to give it a go. Let’s check it out!
