Paldo HWA Noodle Hot & Spicy Flavor – With Soy Peptide! (Cup Version)

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; ...

Samyang Jjajang Buldak Bokkeummyeon

It's been a long time, I missed thy noodlies. Kam has been teasing me with these ones for quite a while now. From what I'm being told we're all just blaming Josh for getting this one out so late so I'm going to go with that also: fuck you Josh! Anyway, let's get down to this reviewing business. I freakin' love everything ...

Prima Taste Singapore Chilli Crab La Mian Premium Noodle in Sweet & Spicy Seafood Sauce

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 ...

Samyang Carbo Buldak Bokkeummyeon

Oh my! Sometimes I feel like we should just convert to "Samyang Regret Rater" as it seems this is all we review; but no one else in the noodle industry is contributing as much to the cause. Seriously; Samyang drops more consistent hot bangers than Roc-a-fella records in the late 2000's. My body is ready. So these come courtesy ...

Samyang Mala Buldak Bokkeummyeon

By very little demand, WE ARE BACK! The Mala! These caught my eye from some videos on the tubefaces! 4x hot they said, hottest ever they said! No! You are wrong! These are hot - very hot - but there is no dethroning of the 2x fire noods happening today! I've got more gripes too! Our office used to have these hot water taps that ...

Indo Mie Mi Goreng Rasa Sambal Matah

Paul here - long term reader, first time writer. With fear and trepidation I accepted the challenge of joining the crew of noodle review. To make things more exciting, I do have some digestive challenges so its hit or miss whether or not I'll survive the morning after. I really don't know whether I'll be back for a second review... ...

Samyang Kimchi Song Song Ramen (Bowl Version)

Well this is odd, Didn't I do the review for the last Song Songs? Seems odd to have me say the similar things about the same noods in different packaging! Here we go though! I prefer bowls for convenience sake, I like not having to source a bowl and just dump what I need into a pre-package and go. I'll always have a place in ...

Yum Yum Asian Cuisine Grilled Chicken Flavour Thai Hot and Spicy

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 ...

Indo Mie Mi Goreng Rasa Sambal Rica-Rica

So there are many things I like about living so close, and getting the chance to go, to Indonesia; the scenery, the people, the culture...and of course, the Mi Goreng. I just got back from Central Java yesterday after attending a cousins wedding and I brought back some stowaways! Two new Mi Goreng varieties! We all ...

Nongshim Mr. Bibim Noodles with Korean Spicy Sauce Stir-fried Kimchi Flavour

I found these little puppies last night; seems that Nongshim are making this "Mr. Bibim" thing a line! I for one am OK with this as stir-fry noods are the Jam. These ones are...Kimchi...yeah I know; it seems like all we are finding lately are Kimchi! But hey, I love the stuff so I'm not complaining. ...

Samyang Kimchi Ramyun

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 ...

Paldo Namja Ramyun King Noodle Grande Format

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 ...

Paldo King Hot and Spicy Jumbo Bowl Noodle

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 ...

Samyang Kimchi Song Song Ramen

The care package has arrived and we are back in business! Behind the scenes we have low key been freaking out about running out of ramen; I think we had one packet left. Moving on, let's get to the review; Samyang's Kim chi Song Song. Noodle block is HUGE! Tasty, tasty thick gauged noodles, the one flaw ...

Gong Mi Goreng Special Fried Noodles

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 ...

Nongshim Mr. Bibim Noodles with Korean Spicy Sauce Korean Spicy Chicken Flavour

So I saw these puppies at a Korean grocery store; the packaging immediately stood out to me because it's one I have never come across in my travels. It looks fun! Nongshim have been pretty good to us and I'm always a fan of Korean Spicy Chicken ANYTHING. So buy them I did. Nood block is pretty standard fare; to be honest I ...

Mamee Chef Perisa Laksa Kari Curry Laksa Flavour

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 ...

Nissin Demae Ramen Spicy Flavour

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 ...

Nongshim Budae Jjigae Noodle Soup Korean Spicy Flavour With Real Kimchi

In your bowls ready set let's go Ramen review pro I know you know I go psycho when my new MSG hit Just can't sit Got to get Jjigae wit it, thats it Now honey honey come taste Nongshim all up in my eye You gotta Sachet bag with a lot a stuff in it Put it in the bowl let's spin Everybody lookin' at me Glancin' ...

Samyang Curry Buldak Bokkeummyeon (Bowl Version)

Samyang back. The Classic Buldak flavour meets curry flavour yet again, this time meeting in the bowl of deliciousness. I am a big fan of the curry variety of fire noods, feel free to take a look at our last stab at these in packet variety. A lot of the same compliments are extended to the bowl Variety with the convenience of ...
