XXVI. Mama Oriental Rice Vermicelli Tom Yum Koong Flavour



Brand: MAMA
Name: Oriental Rice Vermicelli Tom Yum Koong Flavour
Price: 0,50 €


AHH I can't read Thai so I had no fucking clue what the name of these Noodles were untill I googled 'MAMA Shrimps' and looked up the pictures. Yeah me! Har har. 
OTL

Fact is: If the package of ramen is red or hot orange, (I love the color hot orange hahaha I'm such a chick) it might be most likely an indication that the content is pretty hot. Even without adding the extra pack of chili powder. Just FYI for you Ramen-noobs out there, if you didn't know^^



There was a pack of some dark red paste in it. When I cut it open to pop out the content, (I always cut open the sachets because I never rip it open. That'll only cause a disaster of spoiling everything everywhere. Ramen can be a motherfucker if you don't handle it right. Or if you're obviously an idiot. So am I.) something went on my finger. When I licked it up, it sizzeld on my tongue, seriously, so hot is that damn shiat!!! But it was pretty nice, though, haha.



The broth looks preeeetty red, and the smell when opening the lid to cover the noodles while getting mushy was reaaaaaally fierce, too. The noodles are very thin, which I personally don't like that much, and they also don't get that soft for me to find them awesome. But I absolutely love the broth. It's hot, but you can (or I could :P) still eat it, it's actually not that brutal at all! Well, I could slurp the soup without any problems, my nose just started to run after I almost finished the bowl. It also tastes nicely of shrimps and seafood underneath the hotness.

Rating: If you're not a pussy and into hot stuff, I recommend this Ramen. A

III. Bean Vermicelli Good TOM YUM KUNG FLAVOUR

Next review! Since I'm not in the mood to do my homework in Chinese yet. >.<

It's about VINA ACECOOK's Bean Vermicelli Good in Tom Yung Kung Flavour! It's vietnamese, therefore all the vietnamese, english, french, whatever language on it...

 (Pretty impressive package design. I like red and gold. The date-stamp kinda ruined it though. =.='')

(Ingriedients in waaay too much foil! When I finished unpacking, the water already finished cooking! Dx)
 (Dumped everything in a bowl... well amost everything because...)

(I spilled the powder, tearing open the sachet. OTL
Looks like the noodle soup has something against my rice-cooker...)
 (Right after pouring the boiling water in.)

 (After 5 minutes I opened the lid and it still looks the same... o.O )

 (Yummy Uzumaki! *O*)

So here is, how it is: 
It's mild hot, BUT everything is hotter when hot! I really can't eat spicy food, so this was really marginal. Not the kind, where you feel your esophagus melting and your mouth-imitating-hell spicy, but the one, were you need a glass of water with the food.
The taste is pretty good, just your typical sour & hot soup.
The dried shrimp in it is sweet, which was... interesting. x3 Uzumaki is awesome, tastes slightly fishy and sweet!!! Where can I get a whole package of that? Need mor Uzumaki in my life! *____*
Noodles are just the right consistency, a little chewy, but edible. Weird onion/herb chunks are weird… still NO idea, what that is suppose to be, because it tastes like nothing. WTF?
All in all, a sweet and hot A!
