#375: Vifon Pho Bo An Lien Vietnamese Style Instant Rice Noodle Beef Flavour
So here’s something new but kind of like a lot of other stuff…
Clockwise from top: powdered soup base, veggies and seasoned oil.
#374: Vifon Shrimp Flavor Mi Tom Asian Style Instant Noodles
I rarely have any issue with a nice shrimp flavor bowl of noodles. These are from Vietnam by Vifon – I’d better cook them up and review them ‘cuz I’m hungry!
#367: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Chicken Flavor Vietnam Flavor
Didn’t think this wasn’t a repeat review but yeah – this is new! So here we go!
#362: Vina Acecook Daily Instant Noodles Mi Canh Chua Hot & Sour With Shrimp
So here’s another of Vina Acecook’s line of ‘Daily’ instant noodles, hot & sour with shrimp. Sounds good to me; the picture on the front is definitely enticing…
#361: Tayho Miễn Thịt Băm Vermicelli with Pork Ground Meat
Check this one out! This is manufactured in California. Not foreign! Interesting… Let’s give it a try!
#341: Vina Acecook Daily Vegetarian Flavour Instant Noodles
Some new stuffs of happiness from the folks at Vina Acecook – we have vegetarian flavour. I’m enthused! I’m curious if this will taste like a vegetarian – vegetarian created with Japanese technology, that is!
#330: Vifon Phú Gia Miến Gà Instant Bean Thread Artificial Chicken Flavor
So here’s something from Vietnam – some bean thread noodles! Chicken flavored…
#327: Gomex 3 Miến Mì Tôm Hùm Lobster Flavour Instant Noodles
So here’s a brand I’ve never tried before. Gomex is produced by Viet Hung Food, another brand I’ve never heard of before. So I suppose its time to strap on the old noodle bowl and try this stuff.
#311: Vifon Tasty Asian Style Instant Noodle Mushroom Flavor
Okay so my theory here is that if it says it’s tasty, there’s an extremely good chance it isn’t. I’ve never been a mushroom fan but I’ve been coming around lately. This however looked gross to me and has been sitting at the bottom of my noodle box for a while. Today I decided no longer will I fear these noodles. No longer will I cower under my afghan. Bring it noodles – let’s see how ya are.
#288: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Beef Flavor Instant Rice Noodles
Some rice noodles from Vietnam. This was a puffy pack – like a pillow of non-beef goodness!
#277: Vina Acecook Oh! Ricey Instant Phở Bò Rice Noodles Soup Beef Flavour
Here’s the last of the Vina Acecook stuff I got from HT Oaktree Market a few weeks ago (sniff). Overall, I’ve been really really pleased with the Vina Acecook line and hope to sample more very soon! So here’s the beef Pho…
#274: Ve Wong Kung-Fu Instant Oriental Noodle Soup Artificial Soybean Paste Flavor
So this is something I have been meaning to try for a while and have been scoffed at for doing wrong in the past, so here goes. You’ll see quickly that this isn’t your standard pack of noodles…
#272: Vina Acecook Mì Lẩu Thái Instant Noodles Artificial Chicken Flavor
So here’s the last of these I have from HT Oaktree Market. Hope it’s good – been looking forward to it!

Some shrimp Vina Acecook – can’t wait to try this – I’ve been really enjoying their products recently.
#264: Vina Acecook Hảo Hảo Sour-Hot Shrimp Flavour Instant Noodles
So here’s something else from Vina Acecook – Hảo Hảo. Looks interesting – onward!
#262: Vina Acecook Daily Instant Noodles Mì Bò Viên Beef Ball Flavour
Beef balls. Well, I really don’t think they mean rocky mountain oysters here. I think its soy protein.
#261: Vina Acecook Oh! Ricey Chicken Flavour Instant Phở Instant Rice Noodles
#259: Vina Acecook Mì Lẩu Thái Instant Noodles Seafood Flavor
Here’s some more of the Vina Acecook stuff me and my lovely Kit found at HT Oaktree market last week. Seafood flavor!
#254: Vina Acecook Daily Instant Noodle Hot & Spicy Tom Yum
So on our very recent trip to a new Asian grocery, we found a lot of products by Vina Acecook. So there will be a few reviews by them coming at you fast and furious! First off, some Tom Yum! One thing real quick though – notice on the top of the package label where it says ‘Made With Japanese Technology?’ Didn’t find really anything about the Japanese technology anywhere but did find this sitting in a lonely corner of the web:
#228: Vifon Pho Ga Vietnamese Style Instant Rice Noodle Artificial Chicken Flavor
So Kit picked this and the last one – here we go!
Hey cool – quite a few packets in here – powdered base, oil, chili sauce, veggies…
#211: Vina Acecook Mi Xao Kingcook Fried Instant Noodle Tomato Sauce & Pork Flavor
Wow this is very interesting! Pork and Tomato? How bizarre! I think this’ll be quite a different experience.
#194: Saigon Ve Wong Kung Fu Instant Rice Noodles Artificial Chicken Flavor
So today my nose is bugging me so I thought perhaps something chickenny would be good. Well, this is artificial chicken flavor so we’ll see. Also if you look closely at the photo, the chicken in the bowl on the package looks like its made out of plastic! Truly artificial chicken flavor! Har har!
#177: Vifon Hu Tieu Bo Kho An Lien Beef flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodle
So another day and some more noodles my lady picked for me. This one’s Vietnamese and looks a lot like pho. At least on the package.
#164: Unif Tung-I Artificial Beef Flavor Ramen Noodles
I must admit I laugh a little when I see this brand – I like the bit of Norwegian on the front. Biff!!! Smak!!! Sounds like the old Batman TV show! Well, Let me whip out my Bat ramen pot and cook this stuff up.
#163: Vifon Asian Style Instant Noodles Chicken Flavor
Okay so here’s some new stuff from Vffon. Let’s see how it goes! Hoping it tastes good!
#127: Vifon Mi Chay Oriental Style Instant Noodle Vegetarian
Some Vietnamese vegetarian noodles eh? Why not. 59 cents is pretty cheap too. The packaging is quite engaging with all the nice looking vegetable on it!
#97: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Mi Tom Chua Sour Shrimp Flavor Instant Noodles Vietnam Flavor
So today I thought I’d try some more of these interesting Vietnamese noodles. Yesterday’s review was very enjoyable – especially with the little thing about ‘spicery’ on the packet. So here we go with Sour Shrimp Flavor. Yup – another really long named instant noodle pack. I’m kind of liking it.
#96: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Pork Flavor Instant Noodle Vietnam Flavor
So I thought why not – a sunny day here in Edmonds. Pork? Yes, pork sir. After my sweety had some Unif stewed pork noodles a couple weeks ago I thought I’d best try some form of pork noodles. Other than Maruchan’s entry into the pork race that is. So here we are. Quite possibly the longest name in noodles so far, Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Pork Flavor Instant Noodles Vietnam Flavor.
#6: Vifon Nam Vang Oriental Style Instant Noodle
Vifon: Nam Vang
Stars: ** 1/2
Notes: This stuff wasn’t bad – basically a typical salty rice noodle snack ramen from Vietnam. It would not do well with an egg though, as the noodles weren’t the most strong and a lot of them turned to an almost gelatinous state – not from overcooking I assure you. Other than the weak fortitude of the noodles, the broth was fine as were the dried vegetables.
#5: Vifon Phnom Penh Style Asian Style Instant Rice Noodles
Vifon: Hu Tiu Nam Vang [“Phnom Penh” style] Asian Style Instant Rice Noodles
Stars: ***1/2
Notes: Good bowl of noodles – Rice noodles with floating vegetable things [don’t think they were mushrooms, but they definately were onions] and a clear broth. The broth was quite good and went very nicely with the noodles. Probably the best cambodian style noodles I’ve had.
