#5534: Nissin Demae Iccho 100% Hokkaido Wheat Flour Tori Paitan Flavor Instant Ramen – Hong Kong
Here’s yet another from HongKongFoodies.com! Lots of hard to find Hong Kong Demae Iccho over there! I’ve really liked tori paitan before – a creamy chicken profile. Let’s give it a whirl!
#5528: Nissin Demae Iccho Korean Shin Flavour – Hong Kong
Here’s one sent by the folks at Hong Kong Foodies – thanks again! This sounds interesting – a Shin spicy flavor from Hong Kong! Let’s get to it with this variety I’ve never seen before.
#5524: Nissin Demae Iccho 100% Hokkaido Wheat Flour Sesame Oil Flavor Instant Ramen – Japan
This is rad and came by way of the folks at Hong Kong Foodies – they’ve got a lot of Demae Iccho varieties I’ve never seen before and were kind enough to send them my way! Let’s try this classic variety which uses Hokkaido wheat flour.
#5522: Nissin Thai Signature Stir-Fried Curry Sea Crab – Japan
The second of two I got from Japanese Snack Republic before they stopped shipping to the United States. I feel like I really scored on these – very curious! Let’s cook it up!
#5519: Nissin Demae Iccho Bar Udon Noodle Rich Tonkotsu Flavor – Hong Kong
This is another that came by way of Hong Kong Foodies – they’ve got some really great stuff I’ve never seen and so far what I’ve tried has been really great! This is tonkotsu – ooby dooby! Let’s cook it up!
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time 2026 Edition
Can’t believe it’s time for another global top ten. To be honest, I’ve been loathe to do top tens. Why? Well, it’s a lot of work—especially the videos. I like the process of doing reviews; the hunting for varieties, the image editing, and doing my Instant Noodle Recipe Time show when I cook and do my tasting. Taking a week or two to devote a lot of time to video editing, etcetera, is a lot. But I know many of you like these lists and in the end, there are some really fun aspects to them as well.
#5510: Nissin Thai Signature Tom Yum Shrimp Creamy Soup – Japan
I was told by a colleague about a website called Japanese Snack Republic. The have a slew of instant noodle varieties and you have a couple choices – free shipping with no tracking or expedited you pay for. I thought I’d take a shot at the free and get a couple packs and this is one of them. The package was sent literally one day before the Japanese Post decided with the inconsistencies and day to day tumult of the US Government’s tariffs, etc, they would stop accepting packages to be shipped to the United States. They’re not the only ones – South Korea, Australia and plenty more have joined them. Anyways, this was one of those in a little box that went out a day before they shut it down. It arrived! I’m stoked! Let’s cook it up!
#5502: Nissin Cup Noodles Ramen Bistro Sichuan Garlic Chicken – United States
I went out on a walk looking for noodles to review. I found this and another Ramen Bistro variety – been searching for them for over a month. Let’s give this one a try!
#5481: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Beef Ramen Noodle Soup – United States
Here’s the counterpart to the chicken version, found at the local grocery store. What bums me out is no Thai Curry Hot Pot Fusiuon Nissin variety at the local store. Idk… Hopefully I’ll run into it soon. Let’s give this one a try.
#5447: Nissin Top Ramen Hot Pot Fusions Japanese Garlic Tonkotsu Pork Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup – United States
The local grocery store keeps providing more stuff all the time it’s really quite interesting. Wasn’t sure of the Korean one but this should be good and last will be the Thai Curry – should I be able to find it. Months later, I still haven’t and would have truly enjoyed finding it, but to no avail everywhere I’ve looked.
#5444: Nissin Cup Noodles Hot Wings Garlic Parmesan Flavor – Unites States
Well, here’s the third. The first was buffalo/ranch flavored – 1 star. Lemon pepper next – 2 stars. This is the last chance. Can we get a good one out of the set? Read on.
#5442: Nissin Cup Noodles Hot Wings Lemon Pepper Flavor – United States
Well, here’s the second of the trifecta of wings variants from Nissin. The ranch one I did previously? No thanks. Let’s give this a try – I see something promising.
#5441: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup – United States
Another one I found at Safeway which wasn’t there the day before when I found that Hot Pot Fusion one I reviewed this week. I’ve got strong opinions on this one. If it is indeed rich and savory, that’s what should be concentrated on. I don’t see people looking to instant noodle cups for protein; they’re health conscious. Another point on the whole of the big ‘protein push’ is that chicken is gram for gram protein. You sauté up a small piece of chicken breast – it’s ALL protein. I’ve seen a lot of things come and go in the instant noodle world and I hate to say it, but this looks like it’ll be gone possibly before this posts. But hey – it’s a competitive market and companies have to throw a lot of products at the wall to see which ones stick. Good luck – maybe it will, but I have my doubts.
#5440: Nissin Cup Noodles Hot Wings Buffalo With Ranch Flavor – United States
This is a special limited edition – one of three that I’ll be rushing out over the next few days. So soon is the Super Bowl. American Football. What’s more, local team the Seattle Seahawks will be in it. I couldn’t care less – it gets really silly here when football is going on. We like baseball. But hey, we’ll watch it. Honestly, I’m hoping to go out during the Super Bowl – it’ll be like when we had the COVID lockdowns – I really liked those. Anyways, let’s try an instant noodle that should be a little weird. Sure with they’d do cheese burger, taco, and pizza, but so far they haven’t heard my (and the throngs of other people’s) call. On with it.
#5439: Nissin Top Ramen Hot Pot Fusions Korean Spicy Beef – United States
Hey Nissin you’ve been holding out! This is a new one I found at my local Safeway supermarket of all places. There are two siblings in this range – a tonkotsu and a coconut curry – both of which I’m all over. Let’s try this one.
Advent Calendar Day 24: #5591: Nissin Soba Big Yakitori Chicken – Germany
Well, here we are. It’s Christmas Eve! This has been a big shift in how I do things – 24 reviews, one per day for 24 days. Didn’t know what I was reviewing until I opened the package each morning. Usually I have lead time, but not this time. I got up, did a video of opening the door, then shooting package photos, editing, then doing what I’m doing right now – editing the post. Next will be cooking it up, then shooting more pictures, editing them, then editing the video and scheduling, posting and boom – all done. Usually, I break it over two days – edit images the day before, cook the next day and then do images for the next day after that. I guess we will see how I do it going forward. What’s certain is I’m so far ahead – like six months ahead. So, maybe doing one review per day and skipping the weekends might work well.
Advent Calendar Day 23: Nissin Demae Ramen Beef Flavour – Germany
Merry Christmas Eve Eve to you as the kids say! It’s also Festivus – certainly a red-letter day of miracles, feats of strength, and the airing of grievances. The great material contonuum has been truly kind these past few days. Let us begin our next to last item from the amazing and wonderful ramen advent calendar!
Advent Calendar Day 22: Nissin Cup Noodles Shrimps Soy Sauce – Germany
Today is a very special day at our house. 16 years ago today, my wife and I spoke for the first time. We met on an online dating service website. She was home sick from work living with her folks and I was working for a fish company living in my friends garage. Well, it was a remodeled garage at least. We talked on the phone for about 4 or 5 hours. It was great – although I really didn’t expect anything to come of it – she lived all the way down in the Bay Area and that was a bit far from Anacortes up here in Washington state. We talked again the next day, and on Christmas Eve, we talked all day long – like 14 hours all day long. Christmas morning she asked if I’d come down for New Years, and I accepted – best decision I ever made. Let’s have some shrimp Cup Noodles!
Advent Calendar Day 21: #5590: Nissin Soba Chili Flavor – Germany
Well, I overslept… So, it’s time to get stuff done. We were up really late – the plan was to watch Stand By Me, but couldn’t find it so we ended up watching the new version of Running Man – at least part of it. Surprisingly it wasn’t bad. Anyways, enough of our exceedingly late night viewing antics – let’s try this pack version of their Chili flavor – the cup version was really great so we shall see.
Advent Calendar Day 20: #5589: Nissin Soba Classic Flavor – Germany
Well we’re almost there. It’s been a lot of fun thus far. It’s Saturday – kids are now on winter break, aka Xmas break. It’s cold out. I’m hoping tomorrow I’ll be trying out a new camera if the battery charger shows up. Guess we’d better start getting on wrapping gifts – definitely not my strong suit. However, my wife Kit is really good at it – she’s got it down cold and makes them look professional. Well, let’s get to cooking – I really liked the pack version of this so now it’s the cup.
Advent Calendar Day 19: Nissin Demae Ramen Chicken – Germany
It’s been cold, wet, and breezy – now it looks like it’ll be just plain cold today… I guess we shall see. Let’s continue the calendar with some chicken!
Advent Calendar Day 18: #5588: Nissin Soba Chili Flavor – Germany
Wow, that stripe at the top of these posts is getting longer and longer to do every day! I have to edit it in every single post! I’m sure there’s some kind of way to automate it, but I am just doing copy paste on each one at the end of the day – easier. Anyways, this is a spicy yakisoba we have here – let’s give it a try!
Advent Calendar Day 17: #5587: Nissin Ramen Thai Roasted Chicken Flavour Pocket Snack – Germany
Only about a week to go until Christmas Eve – crazy. Hope you’ve got all you gifts got and ready to go! It’s getting late in the game… But today is my daughter’s birthday! She’s exceedingly stoked! Let’s try this Thai take on chicken from Nissin’s newest range – made in Vietnam for the EU market.
Advent Calendar Day 16: Nissin Cup Noodles Duck Sweet Onion Soup – Germany
Had a feeling this one would make an appearance sooner or later! We slept in a skosh so glad it’s one I’ve already tried – makes things a lot quicker on readying the post. Let’s cook it up!
Advent Calendar Day 15: Nissin Demae Ramen Spicy – Germany
I started doing this big advent calendar 2 weeks ago today – pretty crazy! It’s going very well thus far it seems! Thought I’d mention – if you like following, that’s great – I have my posts going out on quite a few platforms, but a couple have barely anyone following. I’m on Substack and Bluesky – it seems people started noticing that and then poof. So, I thought I’d remind folks that if they like those, I’m there. Tumblr too for what it’s worth. Now, on with the review!
THE NISSIN GERMANY INSTANT NOODLE ADVENT CALENDAR 2025 DAILY REVIEW SERIES
I’ve been happily going through a big box sent to me by the kind folks over in Germany at Nissin Foods. It’s a huge advent calendar filled with instant noodles. Each day I have been starting my doings by shooting video of myself opening the correlating door and freeing a pack or cup of noodles – often before I’m really awake. Then I get the post ready to go and go on with my day until the right time when I cook it up on Instant Noodle Recipe Time and then post around 3 to 4 in the afternoon. Usually, I do reviews and I’m very far ahead, so a post I do today might not come out until close to six months from now. This is a very different way of doing things for me and it’s been a whole lot of fun! I thought maybe I ought to do a single post where I can have everything easily viewed. I’ve been updating a stripe at the top of each review – adding a link to each day. I’ll be doing that here as well, but it’ll be stuck to the top of the home page of The Ramen Rater for easier access. With that, here is the calendar series – from the initial unboxing to current day. I should also note I’ve no clue what is going to be behind each door I open – despite being tempted to open the door the night before. I should also note we have a LEGO advent calendar – I am showing those in the beginning as well – but they are of the previous day so as not to spoil anyone doing the same one. Alright – let’s go.
Advent Calendar Day 14: #5586: Nissin Soba Pad Thai Flavor – Germany
Had a great time for my daughter’s birthday party yesterday, did a bunch of stuff afterwards, then my wife and I stayed up watching YouTube until almost 4am. It’s noon now so I’m kinda behind my usual workflow, but it’s Sunday so no big deal. Anyways, let’s cook this up – I’m very curious how this will be! Let’s cook.
Advent Calendar Day 13: #5585: Nissin Soba Teriyaki Flavor – Germany
Well it’s Saturday and time to start the second half of the advent calendar. Today’s my daughter Mimi’s birthday party so I’ll have to get going here. This is the teriyaki Soba pack version as opposed to the cup I did prior. Let’s cook it up!
Advent Calendar Day 12 Nissin Cup Noodles Beef Aromatic Spicy Soup – Germany
Ah its a day for beef. I went to the grocery store to get some. I got my second shingles vax yesterday and today feel like death warmed over. Anyways, I tell the guy at the meat counter I need 1oz of their cheapest ground beef. He tried to give me 0.4lbs which is way too much, then a much smaller amount that was perfect, but when he tried to weigh it it wouldn’t register so he said it was on the house. So shout out to butcher at our local Safeway. But yeah I feel worse than crummy. Let’s see if I can cook a Cup Noodles this morning…
Advent Calendar Day 11: #5584: Nissin Demae Ramen Miso – Germany
This one was included in the advent calenda box from last year – and it would have been good I figure. Alas, I lost the sachet from this one. I hunted through the trash but never found it. Fortunately, I get another chance at it! Do I give it a new numbe? Why not! Let’s cook it up!
Advent Calendar Day 10: #5583: Nissin Soba Peking Duck Flavour – Germany
Time for some quacking with Peking Duck. I really think duck ought to become the nation protein – maybe just plain international protein of choice. Duck is really great so if you’ve not tried it, you’re missing out. Let’s cook this one up!
Advent Calendar Day 9: Nissin Demae Ramen Sesame – Germany
Started a little late this morning but no harm – it’s one I did recently enough… Curious if today will bring more torrential downpour and gusty winds. Guess we shall see.
Advent Calendar Day 8: #5582: Nissin Soba Teriyaki Flavor – Germany
I started doing these last Monday and now it’s a new week with day number eight. So far so good – I think it’ll get a little tricky once we get towards my daughter’s birthday but the train will go throughout I tell ya! Got some extreme weather for this area coming up this week. Time to cook!
Advent Calendar Day 7: #5581: Nissin Ramen Korean Hot Chili Flavour Pocket Snack – Germany
Here’s another one I’ve not tried and it’s interesting. This one isn’t produced in Hungary like the previous ones I’ve shown but instead in Vietnam. I’ve noticed many companies producing in Vietnam – guessing that there’s a really good reason for this, probably has to do with cost and production volume? But that’s kinda outside my purview. This one’s Vegetarian friendly and touts a Korean spicy flavor. Sounds good – let’s give it a go!
Advent Calendar Day 6: #5580: Nissin Soba Sweet & Sour – Germany
Good morning, or good afternoon – it’s Saturday! We were up late – watched a movie called The Substance – if you like weird, it’s gonna fit the bill. Anyways, it’s a big day around here. My daughter Mimi is taking part in a special ‘Chorus Club’ performance at city hall with her school music class so that’s pretty awesome. But first thing I’m doing is editing images of noodles/taking pictures, etc. Next is to do this post and then cook, so that’s what’s going on. Let’s do this.
Advent Calendar Day 5: #5579: Nissin Soba Japanese Curry – Germany
Another one of the Soba range I’ve not reviewed in this package or at all in pack form from what I see. Curry sounds good – perhaps with some chicken? Let’s give it a whirl!
Advent Calendar Day 4: Nissin Cup Noodles Miso Vegetable – Germany
Well, they forgot (so did I) about the LEGO calendar we’re doing concurrently, but here’s another one from the Nissin Germany box!
Advent Calendar Day 3: #5578: Nissin Soba Classic – Germany
This s a bigger undertaking thank I expected! Woke up, shot a quick video, edited images… I usually will do three reviews in a day but a set schedule for ones I’ve not reviewed (I’ve had this but not in this version of packaging) is pretty hardcore! It is fun though – let’s get this reviewed!
Advent Calendar Day 2: Nissin Cup Noodles Chicken Classic Asian Style – Germany
Well, here we go with day two. I’ve reviewed this one somewhat recently, so no new number here. We’re also doing a LEGO City advent calendar here so I’m showing what was in there from the previous day in the video. By the way it’s Giving Tuesday I hear so if you wanna help out click here! Let’s continue on with the Nissin Germany Advent Calendar!!!
