49. MAMA Flat Yentafo

Brand: MAMA

Name: Flat Yentafo

Price: ~0,40 €

I already posted about the MAMA Yentafo soup with the thin rice noodles (see HERE). So this review is actually obsolete, because they taste the same. However I took some pictures, so enjoy:

ERMAHGERD IT'S PINK!!!

added some sweetly fried tofu pieces in there...... oouuuhhhhhwwwww they taste like heaven

The thing about the noodles is: They stick together, and those fat strangs are too hard. That's why I would recommend the thin noodles over these flat ric noodles, though they are not that good, either.

44. Thai Delight Hokkien Noodles

Brand: Thai Delight
Name: Hokkien Noodles
Price: 2,20 €

Today we have a kinda different sort of instant food: The almost-done-only-add-sauce-noodles that come in a stylish chinese-restaurant-take-away-noodle-box-package. There are also different dishes with different packageing colours form Thai Delight. If you read further, you'll find out why these will never be featured in our blog.

The noodles look and taste like spaghetti, which I disliked. Hokkien mee actually contains noodles which are fried. These noodles had not the slightest hint of frying aroma. Instead, it contained another package with a dark brown sauce with baby corn pieces. The instructions are pretty simple, put everything in the box and heat in the microwave for 2 min.

So after 2 min of microwaving, this came out: The noodles still stuck together, and the sauce smelling really weird, kinda sweet and salty. I also screamed for my mommy because I thought I prepared the noodles wrong. After stirring firmly, the noodles kinda got apart (not really). They are a little bit too dry, even with the sauce. And they tasted like common spaghetti. The sauce is reaaaaaaaally weird, it tasted... not good. Too sweet, slightly peppery, and with an eerie after taste that I can't really depict. It was really not good. The corn pieces were pretty tasteless, too, which was very disappointing. I'm glad to know that I will never ever try any other Thai Delight noodle boxes!

XXXI. Yum Yum Thai Suki Flavour

Brand: Yum Yum

Name: Thai Suki Flavour

Price: ?

This Ramen I bought without having a fucking clue what 'Thai Suki' actually was. Looks delicous, judging from what the picture on the front shows. What do we have here: fat mushrooms, green stuff, a lot of vegetable, prawn??? Sry, the quality of the picture really sucks, I can't identify all that stuff anymore haha =D. OTL

When you open the bag, you get to smell the noodles, which bewaters your mouth. The blue sachet on the left does kinda look like it would contain some screws or other mechanical stuff. This time I also tried the fat before putting in the boiling water, and it was preeetty hot! I also snorted too much powder, unwillingly of course, which gave me a sneezing fit LOL. :'D

The final soup had a nice reddish colour, but it smelled kinda like... barf. Really ewww-wy. Nevertheless I tried it. The taste of the soup was pretty weird, too, for me having had no clue how 'Thai Suki' would taste like. The first impression was very sweet, then the taste of basil, herbs,... And after that, I suddenly knew what it tasted like: Canh chua!!!! (You may know that if you're Vietnamese :p) The same sour taste of the broth, with all the herbs and stuff and flavours and blah, I really had a fucking Déjà-vu, and I was thinking that there was okra and bạc hà missing. The broth is kinda hot (and sweet at the same time, I think not everybody will like this if you're not used to such flavours haha) and I had the feeling, while eating this, the soup got hotter and hotter. Which I kinda liked. It was nicely hot, without giving your tongue agony and death pangs.

Rating: A+ because it reminds me of Vietnamese Canh Chua although this is Thai Suki (maybe it's the same?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?! °---°). Add some nice fresh ingredients, like pineapple and tomatoe, for it to look like this, and the broth from Yum Yum would just fit nicely.
