If you like walking around and eating things, instant noodle cups may be the way to go for your. Personally, I enjoy sitting in front of a bowl, but we don’t always have that convenience, so people opt for the convenience of something more portable, and here we are. These are my favorite cups that I’ve reviewed out of the reviews up to #4440. I’m always on the lookout for new varieties from everywhere in the world – whether they be cups, bowls, packs – any noodles I’ve not reviewed I’m very interested in sampling them. Please contact me if you’re a noodle company and you’d like me to try your products! With that, let’s peruse The Ramen Rater’s Global Top Ten Instant Noodle Cups 2024 edition.

#4560: Ramen Talk Tomato Tonkotsu – China
Well, here’s the last of the Ramen Talk varieties I’ve gotten – they said they’d send more, which would be great! All have been quite exceptional. This one’s a tomato tonkotsu – I’m very curious – let’s give it a go!
RamenTalk.us Sends Ultra Premium Varieties – China
These folks sent a package of four varieties a while back – and they wree amazing! This time it’s the final three and I’m truly looking forward to them – let’s take a look!
#4550: GS Retail Premium Gonghwachun Instant Noodle With Black Bean Sauce – United States
This one ame by was of Daniel over at Exotic Noods – thanks again! This one’s a jjajangmyeon style noodle, so it’s got a thick and hearty black bean sauce with it. I’ve seen varieties made for GS Mart (a Korean chain) by Paldo, and everything about this package screams Paldo manufacture. If you look on the back by the barcode, you can see it’s made specifically for Us distribution. Anyways, let’s give it a try!
#4549: Ramen Talk Tom Yum Goong – China
I am a huge fan of tom yum goong. I’m really curious how this one will be – it comes with some surprises as well – like octopus! Let’s checke it out!
#4535: Ramen Talk Pepper Crispy Pork Noodles – China
Today, I’m trying the second variety of the samples that Ramen Talk sent recently. I should mention that I’ve made an error here. This image above is the back of the package… My mistake… It sounds really quite good – let’s check it out!
#4531: Shoo Loong Kan Lan Zhou La Mian – China
Another one found at Asian Family Market on 130th & Aurora . I’ve had Lan Zhou noodles before – and a few Shoo Loong Kan varieties (those were good). During my research on this variety, I’m bombarded by images of lovely beef and coriander aplenty, in really great bowls I wish I had. It makes me really want to go to China; definitely want to try Lan Zhou, the food of Henan, the food of Chongqing… Pretty much every province has their delicacies. Someday I hope. But today, I have this interesting box with a taste of China in it. Let’s give it a try.
#4529: Nissin Demae Ramen Seafood Flavor – Hong Kong
First off, thanks to Daniel over at Exotic Noods for sending this and a few others over recently – check out his website!
#4527: Ramen Talk Japanese Style BBQ Pork Tonkotsu Ramen – China
Behold! I was contacted by a fellow on instagram who follows my reviews and asked if I’d tried these as he has, loved them, but couldn’t source them. I looked around and found ramentalk.us and let him know he could get them there, so he was really happy. I also contacted Ramen Talk to hopefully arrange for some samples. I’m certainly glad I did! These look really quite fascinating – they have a few varieties that I’ll be reviewing in short order as well, but this tonkotsu style sounds great – comes with lots of garnish – including a 7cm slice of chashu. On with the show!
#4423: Bagu Fresh Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Noodle – China
Hwew’s another of what I like to call ‘flower pots.’ Interesting design on this one. Let’s give it a try.
#4414: Baixiang Big Bone Noodle Soup Spicy Pork Flavor – China
Here’s the second of two Chinese varieties sent by a reader named Cian from a trip to Brazil – thanks again! Curious about this one as the non-spicy one was pretty mellow. I am getting to this one fast because of all the varieties Cian sent, this one got the most banged up. Let’s check it out!
#4409 Norita Dan Dan Noodle Meal Kit – Sichuan Style Hot & Spicy Sauce – United States
This was an interesting find in the Asian foods section of Fred Meyer on 164th in Lynnwood, Washington. Never heard of this brand; only thing I can think of with this name is Pat Norita who played Mister Miyagi in The Karate Kid. He was also on M*A*S*H a few times. Oh snap – that’s Pat Morita not Norita. Anyways, this sounds interesting and worth a try, so let’s give it a try. Made in China for a distributor in Kentucky.
#4405: Baixiang Big Bone Noodle Soup Pork Flavor – China
So thanks to a guy name Cian and his visit to Brazil, I ended up with some fascinating varieties. I’ve enjoyed this brand in the past, so I’ve got an inkling that this should be decent. Anyways, let’s get down to it.
#4369: King David Non-Fried Instant Noodles Beef Flavour – China
Here’s the second of the two King David varieties – the first was really good – I must admit I’m surprised how good it was. Let’s see how the beef stands up.
#4366: King David Non-Fried Instant Noodles Chicken Flavour – China
Here’s one sent by King David of China. They’re a big private label outfit; so say your name is Bob and you want to sell Bob’s Noodles. You call up King David and say hi, I’m Bob and they’ll make you instant noodles per your specifications and label them likewise. Pretty neat! Let’s give this non-fried lowfat variety a try!
#4361: Uncle Ya Chongqing Noodles – United States
Made in China, packaged for US sale. These have been an interesting series of reviews, but this is the last one of the Uncle Ya varieties. Hopefully we end with a good one!
#4354: Uncle Ya Peas Fired Noodles – United States
Fried or fired? I think fired since the noodles that come with this one aren’t fried. But – do you fry the noodles? Let’s figure this out. Made in China, packaged for US sale.
#4347: Guangyou Instant Noodle Sour Hot Flavor – China
I’ve had quite a few from this brand before – just not this one. I think the first I had was in a pack form with small children playing on the package. Well, let’s see how this one tastes.
#4341: Jiangxi Nanchang Mixed Noodles – China
Took awhile to attempt to figure this one out. This looks like an interesting one – let’s check it out.
#4330: Uncle Ya Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Noodles – United States
I know, this is confusing to many. This is indeed made in China, but it’s packaged for the US market. That’s why it gets the United States suffix on the title. Anyways, the last one I had from this brand was quite good – hoping for more good things from this one!
