So today I am going solo; I had three packets of these in my drawer at work but someone obviously thought it was a good idea to steal one for a quick lunch-time snack and I really couldn't be bothered to go out and buy another one. So I share some of the responsibility for leaving Josh out. Funny story; ...
If only we had a word for the shape that this packaging comes in, We could call it a bowl? OR KING CUP! Now, the King Cup I am familiar with is a drinking game that has never failed to make me violently ill, I hope this holds a different fate. I must admit, serving size is generous, its a big "king cup" ...
So we actually reviewed the packet version of these quite a while ago; I'm sure they were one of our first reviews. And we thought they were great! I saw these bowl versions and jumped at the chance for us to review this version. So following the package directions (luke warm water filled to the line, and microwave) we ...
Here we go again with the bowl noods. I'll admit it; I am a massive fan of them and the flavour they provide into my mouth as well as my stomach region area. This nood was no exception! It was delicious! I loved this meal! I wanted more and more! Why do all good things have to come to an end? Why am I rambling? Look ...
Here we are eating what ever kimchi is; have to say I was not a fan of what it looked like coming out the packet, looks sorta like cat food? The powder as soon as it came out and the smell hit my nose gave me flash backs of the old days with Nacho cheese easy mac... oh how I miss them! Bigger then you average nood block, it needs to hide ...
Well, This sucked. Only because I had a wisdom tooth out over the weekend. These had just enough spice to make my open mouth cavity a stinging throbbing mess. I could feel my mouth becoming progressively more inflamed throughout the afternoon. This was a nightmare. It was tasty, I enjoyed the crap out of these noods. ...
These were the second cold noodle we've had on our journey I think, and they are an interesting divergence from standard noodle flavours. These have an apple hit to help cool the mouth while also giving a wee nip to the tongue with the spicy profile in the sauce. Now these definitely aren't a spicy noodle, so ...
So I picked these up from a specialty candy store in Yogyakarta called "Snacklicious"; the place had a whole bunch of candy and snacks imported from various Asian countries. This was one of the many I brought back. Round...it fits in a bowl So we are all aware of Paldo, the Korean noodle company; however what surprised me is Paldo, ...
This dish evokes some great memories of eating tinned spaghetti, it just tastes like burnies as well. As soon as I opened the sauce packet for this, I was hit with the familiar pungent scent of some hot,hot sauce. Dark memories of the 2x noodles filled me, and I was filled with an almost instinctual level of ...
I was super excited for this; I am one to judge books by their cover and the packaging for this really spoke to me. Glad the fates decided this was today's ramen. Acceptable Nood Block So pretty decent block; it's square (which we hate) but the portion and girth are acceptible. They hydrate very well (as ...
Oh boy oh boy oh boy; this was another hard-to-come-by ramen that had been on our radar for a while! Luckily a workmate - who was busy looking for ramen to replace ones he stole from our review-desk (horrible, horrible man) - spotted these babies at a nearby Korean deli and told me where to find it! Funny that; if he hadn't have been ...
Smells like...seafood...again You know, something I've learned these past few weeks is not to disregard a ramen just because it wreaks of seafood. I love seafood; but when that smell is coming from a packet of noodles you kind of get a bit put off. Can't explain it. That being said these ...
This broth is certainly striking to the eye, and does little to reassure you that the aftermath will be a pleasant one. However, after overcoming the apprehension, I was pleasantly surprised by the beefy broth, with undertones of squiddy goodness imparted by the freeze-dried squid ...
The pack said chilli garlic and oh boy was there garlic. I’m a pretty big fan of chilli (why else would I do this) but I am equally as big a fan of Garlic. The heat was tolerable I don’t think any of us really had to sit back and re-evaluate but it had a nice little after burn just to remind you that chilli was on ...
Because this was a broth noodle; eating this wasn't so bad. The heat being in the broth means that you really don't sustain much damage to your mouth while eating; after a few mouthfuls there's a bit of a tingle in your lips but you can work through it with relative ease. As you near completion of the ...
