This is a pretty generic looking bowl of instant noodles. However, they’re from Thailand and boast a hot and spicy Tom Yum flavor – Hopefully they’re really good!

#653: Dragonfly Instant Noodles Artificial Pork Ribs Flavor
I thought today would be a nice day to have some pork ribs in noodle form! I wonder how it’ll be? I think it’ll pass the test as it’s yet another Dragonfly product. I know it’s wintertime and all but I think that Punksatawnee Phil’s Groundhog Day prediction was incorrect. He saw his shadow, predicting six more weeks of winter. On the bright side, statistics show he’s been correct – 39% of the time.
Show Your Noodles Week 4
Well, nobody sent any picture s of their noodles so no Show Your Noodles this time. Shame! C’mon people – take a pic of your instant noodle meal – complicated or simple – and send it to info@ramenrater.com and I’ll put it in the next week’s Show Your Noodles! Easy as that! Include first name, last initial and city/state (or country) so I can give you credit.
The Ramen Rater: Noodle News #4
Welcome to the fourth installment of The Ramen Rater Noodle News – I search the Internet to find current info and news on instant noodles and bring it here.
#652: Sapporo Ichiban Shio Ramen Japanese Style Noodles
Soon as I saw this, I was really excited. I really like Shio (salt) ramen. I don’t know what it is, but it works! What’s more is this stuff is made in California. I found it at H Mart in Lynnwood, Washington. Let’s dig in!
#651: Wingsfood Mi Sedaap Mi Segera Mi Sup Perisa Kari Ayam
Yesterday I went to HT Oaktree Market on 100th & Aurora in North Seattle. I went to get some things to make a batch of my curry soup and of course hit up the noodle aisle. Was thinking of re-reviewing the Mi Sedaap curry I’d had before as well, but as it turns out, I snagged a new one I hadn’t reviewed yet. Then this morning, I noticed a lot of people coming to The Ramen Rater from a forum on a Singapore website – they were all coming because of a link to Mi Sedaap Perisa Asli, something I’d reviewed a while back. I thought I should review a new Mi Sedaap today, so here we go.
#650: Dragonfly Instant Noodles Artificial Chicken Flavor
The last time I had Dragonfly brand noodles they were in a bowl and cooked by steeping. This time around it’s boiling in a pot. I remember how much I really enjoyed these Chinese noodles! Let’s see how they are in a pack.
#649: Pot Noodle Chicken & Mushroom Flavour
Well, this is the end of the line. A few months ago, Cindy C. from England sent a nice big box of instant noodles containing many kinds of Super Noodles and Pot Noodle and this is the last of the Pot Noodle! After this, there are two pouches I’ll review called ‘Mug Shots.’ Thanks again Cindy! This has been a lot of fun!
#648: Nongshim Noodle Soup Seafood Ramyun
This was sent to me by Greg B. of Marathon, Florida! I was a little surprised that I haven’t reviewed this one before, but sure enough, I haven’t! Let’s rip open some Korean ramyun!
#647: Sunlee Instant Noodle Tom Yum Shrimp Flavour
Cool – a Sunlee bowl. I’ve had a couple of these before – they were crab flavored and really quire good. Tom Yum soup is one of my favorites and hopefully since this is from Thailand, it should be pretty good.
The Ramen Rater: Noodle News #3
Here are some articles from the Internet and such tyhat the Ramen Rater reader may find fascinating!

#644: Sura Knife-Cut Rice Noodle
Guest Post On The ‘One Pan Wonders’ Blog!
I was invited to write a guest post on the One Pan Wonders blog this week, and so I did. Here’s the post. As you can see from the image, Teresa Dicentra Black is an author and has written a book about recipes for hiking and backpacking! I never equivocated hiking and instant noodles being connected, but it makes sense; they’re easy to pack and all you need is some hot water. Here’s a link to her website – check out her book! Thanks again for the invite – it was fun to write about noodles in a different way!
#643: Wei Chuan Instant Noodle Soup Miso Vegetables Flavor
Here’s another pack from Michelle L. of New York – thanks! The last Wei Chuan I tried was tomato flavor and quite good – let’s see how this one is.
#642: Little Cook Instant Noodles Spicy Beef Cup
#641: Vina Acecook Hao Hao Fried Noodles Shrimp & Onion Flavour
Been waiting for a good day to review these – they sound really good! I thought I’d try them today to celebrate the CNN article coming out!

Happy Momofuku Ando Day!!!
Well, today’s the day! The first Ramen Rater Momofuku Ando Day! I hope people out there are enjoying noodles today! Been a great day here – had some good noodles (which you’ll see shortly in the video) and was featured on the Seattle Weekly’s blog! Today I decided to review the closest thing I had to the 1958 Nissin Chikin noodles – the first instant noodles that were produced ever. I went with Nissin’s Top Ramen Chicken flavor; kind of the great grandchild of the Nissin Chikin! So sit back, relax, and check out the video. Happy Momofuku Ando Day!
