I will say a few things here; I'm not really a big fan of sweet chilli. OK well that was just one thing. Let's just get on with this. So the noodles themselves were actually pretty fantastic; great gauge, long, nice snap to them, and felt really authentic to a Singapore stir ...
We are back! Sorry for the hiatus; I actually had a week off in Bali getting drunk and eating many non-ramen foods. But we are back on this review thing now with another from our friends in Thailand; Yum Yum! Who doesn't love grilled chicken? And Thai Hot & Spicy? Yes please! Let's dive in! So the color of the ...
Another treat from Samyang, I'm more a fried style noodle fan but these reviews aren't going to do themselves (hehe, "do themselves"). I'm not going to lie, when opening the packaging, I found the add-ins a little sparse. One Sachet? I want more goodies! That being said, the ...
Here we go! Another Mi Goreng packet of noods! The moment we opened the packet up it gave off some really disgusting smell like something was wrong with the meal. It was a little off-putting. It comes with the standard 3 sachets ready for your noods (technically it's 5) as is par for the course with any Indonesian ...
It's a tough game in Australia's noodle market to come out with Mi Goreng, the masses will always flock to Indo Mie's variant, it's tried and true. The packaging is perhaps a little underwhelming it looks as though the marketing team kind of phoned it in. On first impression, my ...
Let me start by bidding farewell to Steve, if you steal our regret rating at your new job, we will find you. Let's get started, Mamee. The offerings from Malaysia have been touch and go, and these were a good example of why we are typically indifferent about Malay Ramen. The inclusions are ample, there are ...
Well these are another nood from the Philippines; but not by "Lucky Me". In fact these are made by global noodle powerhouse Nissin; could be good, could be bad. First impressions weren't great and the taste wasn't much better. The noods themselves were nice (kind of flat, good texture and gauge) but the flavour was ...
Man oh man did these look promising. Noodle block was round, ideal for fitting in a bowl (observe below annoyingly aesthetic image). Three sachets, with the blood red "hot sauce" packet again looking like these will deliver. Other two sachets contained dehydrated veg and what looked like a gray ...
I don't even know what to say. I wanted to give these the benefit of the doubt because Nissin have treated us pretty well with their other noods; these were a lie. A big fat lie. There is no Spicy, there is no Flavour; so how dare you call this "Spicy Flavour"? So we get the standard thing nood block you would EXPECT from ...
So this is another one my better half brought back from Indonesia for us to review; this one appears (from the cover) to be a creamy kind of chicken (ayam) based broth. Exciting! Let's crack these open! Sorry; I added the water before I took this photo. I was so excited for these that I ...
What the golly gosh is this! look at the size of the block my fist is bigger then this thing, this isn't a meal this is a snack for a 10 year old! The moment I opened the seasoning sachet I got the smell of pure sweetness, what is this! Gonna have to say the photo makes it looks worse then what it really ...
Master Kong; I like to envision this being conceived by Donkey Kongs father. While DK was tormenting Mario and running around collecting Bananas all Master Kong wanted was for his son to take over his Noodle business. This probably is not however the origin of the name. Firstly, a round Noodle block always steads in good favour for ...
Well well well; we made it! We finally got to 100 reviews; you thought it would never happen, heck I thought it would never happen. Shoot, I thought the first 100 we would get to was "It took Steve 100 days to finish his review"; but nope, 100 reviews. And what better way to celebrate than to review the classic Indonesian ...
Here we go topping out at 99 of our ramen; we finally start coming to a more standard packet of noods! This nood looks exactly the same as the Indomie Mi Goreng, even has the exact same packets of soy! But can this be different? Let's find out. Pretty standard block nothing special here Kam kinda did some wacky thing with the contents of ...
Now I am a HUGE fan of Pho Soup, so when we spun these n00ds I was thoroughly excited. Loving the variety we've been getting as of late. These came in a cup, upon revealing the contents we found everything in plastic bags, nice touch. Rice noodles were bunched up and sealed, another bag contained ...
So, Choice is a budget brand here in Australia. They Make cigarettes and they make noodles now (they probably make other things too but these are two things I know for sure). The reason I mentioned cigarettes is because the flavour was extremely lacking, Almost as if I had no taste-buds ...
Spicy mayo flavour? As a white boy I am so excited about the idea of mayo. The tech thrown into the packaging is fantastic. Dehydrated veg with the noodles so they hydrate with the noods, a generous serving of sachets, this ticks all the boxes. Lets talk about the draining system on the bowl, I think so many ...
Here I am covering for Steve, because he doesn't have the time to do a review! The noodle block is a small block, and very thin noodles but they manage I guess. Here we have 3 different packets of goodies! Now this is kinda confusing; these noodles tell you to make it as a soup, and then if you like you can pour out the ...
Yes the taglines are terrible right? So we haven't had the pleasure of reviewing Mamee yet; and for our first one we have a delicious sounding Curry Laksa! Opening the package we get a lot of goodies; two seasoning sachets, dried vegetables (and tofu!) and some kind of laksa paste. All up makes for a bit of excitement here. ...
Spicy tomato flavour? Sure, why not? I like tomato soup and a bit of chilli is always a good thing. Let's see how this goes. Firstly, this looks like swamp water after mixing. Why isn't it red? I associate the colour red in broths to both spicy and/or tomato, instead we are left with a murky orange-ish colour. Normal ...
