MYOJO Chukazanmai with Soy Base

This Myojo Chukazanmai ended up being very yummy. When I unwrapped the package, the first thing I noticed was the dried noodles. It looked like they were handmade because of their inconsistent shape. Preparation was a little different than usual: boil noodles in water, take off heat, pour noodles into bowl and add . . . → Read More: MYOJO Chukazanmai with Soy Base

HOUSE FOODS Tofu Shirataki Angel Hair

The texture of these noodles are like rubber bands. Reminded me of the canned ramen from the Japanese vending machines, but not as rubbery because the noodles were thinner. Not sure if i like these. Not great…but not bad. Unusual to say the least. For the soup, I used chicken broth, . . . → Read More: HOUSE FOODS Tofu Shirataki Angel Hair

NISSIN Cup Noodle Milk Seafood

I thought to myself today…what is this obsession with food pictures? Why do I like to document food through photographs? I must admit that I do scroll through my own posts and admire the pictures that I’ve taken over the past year and a half. They make me hungry. As I write . . . → Read More: NISSIN Cup Noodle Milk Seafood

NONG SHIM Kal Gook Soo

There was nothing really special or unique about this flavor worth mentioning except for the noodles. Overall this flavor was ok. I was a little disappointed that it didn’t taste too much like clam soup. The texture and consistency of the noodles were satisfactory. Noodles are medium wide which still required the . . . → Read More: NONG SHIM Kal Gook Soo

Los Angeles, CA: Orochon Ramen

I must admit that the whole reason for this trip to Orochon Ramen was because I saw the Orochon challenge epsiode on Man vs. Food. Curious, I thought what ramen could possibly be that spicy that I couldn’t handle? So I had to find out. From the beginning, I had no intention on . . . → Read More: Los Angeles, CA: Orochon Ramen

Monterey Park, CA: Foo Foo Tei Ramen House

Situated in a small lack luster strip mall, Foo Foo Tei Ramen House stands unassumingly in the corner. It was about 2pm on a Wednesday and there were no other customers when we walked in. Usually, this is a red flag but for some reason, I wasn’t afraid. It actually turned out great . . . → Read More: Monterey Park, CA: Foo Foo Tei Ramen House

Gardena, CA: Umemura Home Made Ramen Noodle

Woke up late and missed breakfast…AGAIN, so I was starving! What better way to satiate ones hunger than with home made ramen noodles?

When we finally arrived, I was happy to see . . . → Read More: Gardena, CA: Umemura Home Made Ramen Noodle

NISSIN Tokyo Shoyu Flavor

Not so keen on this flavor. I was actually disappointed with this Tokyo shoyu flavor after having high hopes that it would be good. It tasted like maruchan top ramen, just salty. The slices of pork I added did not contribute to the meal, in fact I think it helped make it worse. . . . → Read More: NISSIN Tokyo Shoyu Flavor
