Your Guide To The World Of Instant Noodles Since 2002
Can’t remember exactly where I picked this one up, but it’s Filipino. What’s more is that it says it’s a product of the USA. Don’t think I’ve heard of this Nora Kitchen brand before – I suspect maybe it’s the same as Pamana but I could be wrong. Anyways, sotanghon time – let’s check it out!
Decided to start off the week with a couple Sau Tao varieties today (you should be seeing the second one tomorrow). They sent a ton for a Meet The Manufacturer series (okay, not a literal ton – just 400lbs of samples). Let’s check out their QQ Rice Vermicelli!
There are so many varieties these folks make and I’m glad because this has been one of the most varied Meet The Manufacturer series yet.

When I tried this previously, I was totally stoked. Often you can find prawn noodle in Penang that has both vermicelli and wheat noodles present. Well, you get that here. Not only that, this one while insanely good prior to this review now has a new recipe. Very curious how it is – let’s find out!
Hey look at this! What is it? Well, their standard Spicy Sakura Prawn has been ranked #2 on the 2018 and 2019 The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time lists.

Let do this!
