Malingen's Ramen Review

Welcome to Malingen's Ramen Review; Every now and then, I buy ramen for myself to eat for lunch, typically unique and tasty ramen. At some point, I started to log them on Bluesky and so I wanted to copy it over here as well. Enjoy reading, and use the table of contents below for easy navigation.

Review #1

NONGSHIM Udon Premium Noodle Bowl - 8/10

Has pretty good seafood in it when cooked properly and is pretty tasty, However it takes time to eat due to the sheer size of the bowl.

Review #2

Nissin RAOH, Tokkutsu flavour - 9/10

One of the best ramens ive had alongside that other bowl; The broth doesnt stink and has a good taste, making it drinkable and the ramen was pretty good

Review #3

Nissin Cup Noodles, Stir Fry Series, Korean BBQ flavor - 7/10

Not bad but considering its the sane quality as any other cup noodles, not good either. However, the stir fry element (as in just giving it enough water to soak but not soup) makes it taste really good. 👍 for portable lunch

Review #4

Nissin Chow Mein, Teriyaki Beef flavor - 6/10

Once again, Nissin has proved themselves to be the latter of the best instant ramen brands. The flavor sauce, once mixed in cooked ramen, has a rather 'bleh' taste to it, while the noodles and vegies itself is bland.

Review #5

Nissin RAOH, Umami Soy Sauce Flavor - 9/10

As I once said with the Tonkotsu variation, it's possibly one of the best varieties of ramen I've had in my life, this one perhaps beating out the other.

Review #6

Nissin Cup Noodles, Stir Fry Series, Teriyaki Beef Flavor - 8/10

Once again, a great choice for a tasty portable instant ramen thats also fast to cook; However I marked it down one point due to its ease to be rather hot after cooking, even after blowing it as well as not as tasty as Korean BBQ

Review #7

Snapdragon Miso Ramen Cup - 6/10

Rather bad tasting, even after cooking it for the specified 2 minutes. Tastes nothing like miso soup and rather eat Nissin instead. Please do not buy.

Review #8

Dragonfly Instant Noodles, Onion Flavor - 7/10

Pretty good taste albeit slightly cheap tasting. It reminds me of Nongshim Udon but smaller. Supports microwave cooking at 2m30s, but remember to remove the lid fully as it has metal on the inside. Would recommend for lunch.

Review #9

Maruchan Yakisoba, Teriyaki Beef Flavour - 7/10

It's alright and definitely good to bring around to work and such but it does get repetitive pretty easily which is why I recommend getting more unique and tastier ramen like the Korean BBQ flavor or the Seafood flavor from Nissin.

Review #10

Choi Ramen Noodle Soup - 7/10

The noodles are good but can sometimes be a little too hot, and the broth pretty much sucks. Also there's a California P65 warning on it saying there's lead in it

Review #11

Nissin Cup Noodle, Seafood Flavor - 8/10

This cup is pretty good, especially with the seafood, but in my opinion, the seafood chunks run out fast and I'm pretty sure only exist on the top layer. Other than that, it's pretty good and better than the other standard varieties.

Review #12

Nissin Cup Noodle, Stir Fry Series, Sweet Chili Flavor - 8/10

Again, a great variation of the Cup Noodle brand, potentially making the Stir Fry series my favorite type of Nissin brand, besides RAOH. The only con is that it's hot majority of the time.

Review #13

Nissin Stir Fry Series, Rice with Noodles Variation, Teriyaki Chicken Flavor - 8/10

Actually a lot better then I expected; I was thinking the rice would be all goo-y and taste like slop. At the same time, as with all Stir Fry series ramen, it's extremely hot.
