Over 5,000 Instant Ramen Noodle Reviews Since 2002
Well, this is it. We come to the end of the line of varieties sent by Good Seoul – thanks again! They’ve been a lot of fun, especially since I really like tteokbokki. These haven’t been ramen for the most part, although a few rapokki variants, but something you’d find in the instant noodle aisle at grocery stores in yje Persian Gulf or Dubai – countries in the GCC – and soon (if not already) in Europe. Let’s finish around where we began – with their original flavor.
I review this in the waning days of summer. When I was young, I remember it was about now when back to school sales started – they start almost before school lets out for summer, making the gauge worthless at this point. But the long afternoon shadows herald the change coming soon. It’s August 5th, 2025. Let’s cook.
Rapokki is a combo of rice cake and noodle and usually has a sweet and spicy sauce – this sounds like it’ll be a good one! Let’s have at it!
Here’s another one and this has a twist – it has a noodle with it but isn’t rapokki. Let’s delve deeper…
Time to go for another rapokki. It’s both tteokbokki and ramyun – together – with sauce. Truly a wonderful texture thing to be sure. Let’s dig in!
Previously, I tried the cheese rapokki, but here we have just the tteokbokki. I know, it isn’t ramen – however, it’s definitely something you’d find on the ramen aisle. Let’s cook it up!
Say! I love tteokbokki but I’ve NEVER heard of a variety in this flavor! I’m really quite curious… One way to find out – let’s give it a try!
So first, I did a pack like this of original topokki. Next, a carbonara cup. This is rapokki – a combo of noodle and rice cake. It’s usually a really great melding of textures. This should be awesome – let’s give it a try.
Now this one sounds good. In the last post, I complained about all the creamy and spicy varieties out there, but this is tteokbokki and it’s hard for me to get cranky about tteokbokki. Let’s hit the start button on the microwave!
This is the first of a lot of tteokbokki varieties I’ll be reviewing from Good Seoul. This product is made in South Korea and at this point distributed in the GCC and soon Europe. That’s great – everyone need tteokbokki in their life I swear! This came out of a big box of varieties they sent from Dubai! Let’s give it a try!
I was recently contacted by Good Seoul – makers of some really great rice cake topokki and rapokki! Topokki (tteokbokki) is rice flour cylinders that have a soft and chewy texture. Alone, they’re really not tasty, but paired with sauce they’re quite addictive. Rapokki is when you have these and introduce wheat noodles as well, making for a dual-textured experience. You can find their facebook here. I’ve done a few reviews so there’s some images in the video – check it out!
