This one was brought over and mailed to me – thank you! Very nice and excited to try it! I’m going to guess this will be a beef and Sichuan pepper kind of affair, but who knows – it’s a Thai brand so it should have a special spin on it. Let’s give it a try!

#4619: Pran Mr. Noodles Instant Noodles Curry Flavour – Bangladesh
Here’s one I found at JD’s Market in Lynnwood, Washington. I hit the store up about once a year and generally find something or other I’ve not tried before. Let’s check it out!
#4558: Mamee Chef Mi Goreng Perisa Rendang Legenda – Malaysia
Here’s a special new variety from Mamee Chef – RENDANG!!! Rendang is kind of a dry savory beef – very seasoned and very wonderful. This is a dry noodle – let’s check it out – I’m truly enthused!
#4554: Nissin BIG Cup Noodles Seafood Flavour – Singapore
Here’s another one that came out February 2nd – a big Seafood cup! This and three others arrived in a special media box from Nissin Singapore early February – thanks again! Let’s give it a try!
#4471: Nissin U.F.O. Korean Hot Chicken Flavour – Singapore
This is definitely a challenge to the popular spicy Korean varieties that are so popular right now. I’m really curious if it will also bring a Singaporean savoriness. Logically, this will be formulated to appeal to Singaporeans; like how we have American Chinese cuisine here, perhaps there’s a Singaporean Korean cuisine there? I don’t know but I think I’ll find out shortly!
#4431: Indomie Mi Keriting Rasa Ayam Panggang – Indonesia
A huge thanks to Pher Engi of Australia for sending this among many other Indonesian varieties recently – truly above and beyond. This is one I really loved for a long time when it was an export version to the United States, however it stopped coming our way. This stuff is top notch and really thrilled to be able to review it again. The name translates to curly noodle with grilled chicken flavor. It also comes with a soup to be served alongside. Let’s begin.
#4346: Acecook Hao Hao Mi Goreng Shrimp & Onion Flavour – Vietnam
Found this one at an Asian grocery on Evergreen in Everett, Washington recently. I hit them up once a year or so and usually find a few varieties I don’t usually see anywhere else which is very nice! This one I think I’ve seen before online, but never in the ‘wild.’ Well, let’s give it a try!
#4344: Chewy Quick Serve Macaroni Ham Flavour – Hong Kong
Ham flavor macaroni soup? Yeah – for really though! I’ve had the chicken flavor by this brand as well, and there are a few other brands out of Hong Kong that do different flavors including tonkotsu! Let’s give this ham variety a try.
#4307: Chewy Quick Serve Macaroni – Chicken Flavour – Hong Kong
Yep! I know! Not ramen! But it was with the ramen, it’s from Hong Kong, and it’s something interesting. I’ve reviewed a few macaroni varieties in the past. Let’s give this one a try.
#4160: Lin Jia Ya Tou 2x Spicy Salted Egg Yolk Flavour – China
I’m getting this post ready to go the day before Lunar New Year – – we went to a big Asian grocery just north of Seattle yesterday and shopped for noodles. They usually have some really neat things in store for the special holiday! This is supposed to be an extra spicy salted egg variety – very curious about it – let’s check it out and see if it’s truly ultra spicy! I should note that I had no clue my lens was so greasy – which is a bummer since I did three shows and a mukbang while it was like this… So, forgive me. It’s clean now, although a little late…
#4136: Lost The Pot Noodle Roast Chicken Flavour – United Kingdom
This one comes by way of my good friend (who actually was Knighted) from the UK I met via the Ramen Junkies group a little while ago. Thank you, bro! I’m a huge fan of British varieties and especially interesting ones from Pot Noodle. Let’s see if this one is as bland as he says it is. Sadly, I have no tinned pangolin to add to this one, Sir JB will be happy to see the absence of corn.
Meet The Manufacturer: #4104: Best Wok Mi Goreng Original – Indonesia
This is one jazzed company. Why? A big time influencer in Indonesia says that she likes their mi goreng better than Indomie’s. That’s truly a big deal – and so here we are with their new recipe for mi goreng to find out whether I agree. I did do the hot and spicy and honestly, that one was great – especially since it has a nicer oiliness oto the noodle and wasn’t as dry as their competition – I’d say I liked Best Wok’s better. Let’s see how this new original mi goreng fares.
#4045: Thai Chef Shrimp Tom Yum Flavour – Thailand
Well, it’s time for what I think is the very last of the Thai Chef varieties they sent. These have been decent and of course since they’re MAMA instant noodles. Let’s give this tom yum a go.
#3997: Fashion Food Tom Yum Shrimp Creamy Flavour Instant Noodles – Thailand
Yet another one from an Exotic Noods subscription box – use coupon code THERAMENRATER for a discount! These are neat but a pain at the same time. The plastic bowls with lids can be reusable which is cool, however the labeling is impossible to scan, so that poses issues for me – but thankfully not for you. Let’s check it out!
#3992: Thai Chef Artificial Duck Flavour – Thailand
Was nice how Thai Chef sent everything in cup and pack versions – lots of varieties to go through! Cups and packs usually are a lot different. Let’s give this duck flavor variety a try – in a cup!
#3986: Thai Chef Shrimp Creamy Tom Yum Flavour – Thailand
I did the cup version a couple days ago, now here’s the pack version. Let’s give it a try!
#3955: Thai Chef Artificial Chicken Flavour Oriental Style Instant Cup Noodles – Thailand
Here’s a new one from Thai Chef. A chicken cup noodle! No range is complete without chicken in most cases. Let’s check it out!
#3952: Thai Chef Artificial Duck Flavour – Thailand
It used to be that I would shy away for the odd duck flavored instant noodle that would cross my desk, however these days I see them and a smile crossed my aging face. Duck. It reminds of when I have been in Asia, a place I so wish to see again. These are made by the same company that makes the MAMA range of noodle products, undoubtedly one you’re familiar with if you are a noodle aficionado. Let’s give this duck noodle a try as I look back wistfully at the days of dreams in Asia past and hopefully the future untold they will hold.
#3907: Indomie Instant Cup Noodles Mi Goreng Barbeque Chicken Flavour – Indonesia
I only thought they had an original Indomie Mi Goreng cup but it turned out there’s a barbeque chicken one too. Quite a surprise – especially since I found it at a Middle Eastern market. Let’s give it a go!
#3900: Doll Ramen Noodles Sesame Flavour – Hong Kong
Another one that I’ve not samples in many, many years – October of 2010. Curious how it’ll be – I generally remember liking all of these Doll brand ones so we shall see.
