2x Spicy Samyang Buldak Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen

I was looking back through my older posts and found that I had tasted both the ramen cup and ramen bowl versions of the 2x Spicy Samyang buldak ramen. I had recently been given a few packets of the 2x spicy buldak, so I figured I should review it and see how I like it 8 years after I last tried that flavour!

Avgolemono-style Maggi Chicken Noodles

I've always wanted to share my silly little recipes, but I haven't found the time to actually sit down and write them. Now that I have a bit of downtime, here's a recipe for Avgolemono-style Maggi Chicken instant noodles!

I hope I don't offend the Greeks with this one!

HOLOSTARS EN x Doko Koko Collab Cafe!

What's this? A blog post in my food blog after 6 years of abandonment?!

Indeed it is! This is just a way for me to celebrate and record my first ever experience in a collab cafe with something I'm a huge fan of, and give a review of the food!

It's the HOLOSTARS EN bois!!!

Nissin Seafood Cup Noodles with milk & tumeric

You may have heard of the cup noodle hack where you cook seafood cup noodles in milk. This is that... with some extra ingredients!

This time I'll be talking about the Maggi Curry noodles, but with a little something extra.

Maggi Curry in cup form!

Avocado with Soy Sauce

I like avocados. And I want to thank the person who discovered the delicious combination of avocado with soy sauce.

This here, is a normal avocado.

Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Squid

Here's another snack from the Samyang brand! Much like the spicy chocolate-covered almonds, it's a snack branching off from Samyang's famous hot chicken flavour. Time to see how it tastes!

Also, did I mention that I like spicy dried squid?

Sriracha Ramen - Sriracha Flavor Stir-Fried Noodle

This here's an interesting one. It's instant ramen based off the Sriracha hot sauce! I kinda like Sriracha sauce so I'm curious to see how this one tastes!

 The red colour of the packet is certainly really striking.

(Also, since this noodle is pretty similar to the Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen in terms of flavour and preparation, I'm gonna be comparing the two of them a lot.)

Random Snacks: Marukin Yodo Tamago Thickly-Cut Baum (plus a Muji Sakura Baum)

Here it is, This is the baum which I think is the best I've ever tasted. It's made with Yodo tamago, which are high-grade Japanese eggs, from what I've read. (They're tastier than regular eggs, it seems.)


This is part 2 of the Japanese baum compilation, btw.

Samyang Spicy Chocolate-Covered Almonds.

So... When I saw this on the supermarket shelf, I was like, "Oh, what the hell, I'm gonna try it!!" I can't read Korean so I'm only guessing that these are spicy chocolate-covered almonds. (And I've always wanted to try some spicy chocolate!)
Even the chicken can't take it!

Random Snacks - Jagarico Tarako Butter potato sticks

You may recall me reviewing a similar snack some years ago and you would be right! Unlike the Jagabee tarako mayo (also from Calbee), this Jagariko is tarako butter, which also sounds delish!

It's like a kid-version of Jagabee!

Recipe: Pork Mushroom Risotto w/ Vegemite Butter

I enjoy watching MasterChef Australia, and there was one episode (Season 10, Episode 27) where a professional chef cooked Vegemite prawn risotto for the immunity challenge. The Vegemite butter idea looked awesome, so I decided to try making a risotto dish with Vegemite butter as well.

Mamee Daebak - Spicy Fried Chicken Cup Noodle

So, for some reason I only just found out that this flavour from Mamee (a local brand) cup noodle existed. And some famous(?) Korean dude gave his approval of it, so it should be quite good?


Well, it certainly has piqued my interest. Time to try it!

American Nissin Cup Noodle - Spicy Chile Chicken Flavor

So, I was surprised to find Nissin Cup Noodles from the US at my local grocery store. Needless to say, I bought a couple to try them out. 8D

I deliberately went with "spicy," lol.

I'm reviewing the Spicy Chile Chicken flavour first, and I will cover the Spicy Lime Shrimp flavour in the next blog post!

Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen - Jjajang

This one is a fairly new flavour! It's based on jajangmyeon, a Korean black bean sauce noodle. I've never had jajangmyeon before, so let's see how it tastes!

Import from Korea!

Samyang Hot Chicken Ramen - Carbo (bowl version)

Here's a relatively new flavour in the Samyang Hot Chicken ramen series: Carbo!

It's short for carbonara, apparently.

Samyang Hot Chicken Flavor Ramen - Mala

Here's another flavour I took a while to try because I couldn't buy single packets until recently: The Mala flavour! I like eating spicy Sichuan style stir fried chicken so this should be interesting.

Despite being Chinese, I actually first learned of the terms "ma" and "la" from Shokugeki no Soma (Vol. 15, chapter 122)
